Have you tried this troubleshooting guide? Xbox network server connectivity on Windows is blocked

Yes but it hasn't proved helpful. Restoring UPnP Device Host resolved the NAT/Teredo issue but I am still trying to figure out how to regain MS server connectivity. It is related to one or some combination of the removed components as restoring all the components resolves the issue. I just need to figure out which one.

Edit: The componenet that needs to be restored is between lines 443 and 496 if someone wants to take a stab at what it might be or help me narrow it down further.

Well for that to happen........... upload your preset without key or login details, and as i have said previously, we can look and see what may have been overlooked.
 
You're running on LTSC, which is Enterprise edition. Enterprise doesn't have XboxIdentityProvider for obvious reasons.

For testing purposes, I would run "wsreset -i". This is the normal cheat for forcing MS Store on LTSC, but it also installs XboxIdentityProvider at the same time.

I've run ltsc and haven't had these issues being reported about.

Here is the preset I am using. I running this over IoT LTSC 2021. As I have stated I narrowed the problem down to lines 443-496. The only change I am making before applying it removing the line that removes UPnP Device Host.

Again the problem is that Network Status says No Internet Status, Windows activations shows unable to reach Windows activation servers, and Xbox Networking says Server activity is Blocked.

Edit: Further narrowed the problem to lines 470-496 (Distributed transaction coordinator - photoviewer)

the preset you have changed and applied to the image. THIS is just the original preset as in post #1.

by sending this, all you have done is just shown what was used as a template, and NOT what you have applied or done to the image

Here is the one I am applying.

Edit: Further narrowed the issue down to the removal of one of these components:
<c>msdtc 'Distributed Transaction Coordinator (DTC)'</c>
<c>naturalauthentication 'Natural Authentication'</c>
<c>ncb 'Network Connection Broker'</c>
<c>ncdauto 'Network Connected Devices Auto-Setup'</c>
<c>NcsiUwpApp 'Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI)'</c>

This present For win10 & Win 11 ?
i will test it, thanx , sir , Have a nice Day
 
Figured it out. Now I just need to run the game to 100% confirm.

For MS Server Connectivity this is required:
<c>NcsiUwpApp 'Network Connectivity Status Indicator (NCSI)'</c>

For Open NAT/ Teredo this is required:
<c>upnp 'UPnP Device Host'</c>

Edit: This resolved my connectivity issues but I still have the sound issue. This one is more will be more of a pain to resolve cause I have to install and run the game to test for working audio.

All menu and cutscene audio works and in game my own gunfire sounds correct. The issue is that any spatial sound happening around me is muffled/ missing. Any Ideas?


Edit2: Figured out the source of the audio issue as well now. This required for sound to function in this game.
<c>3daudio Spatial Sound (3D Audio)'</c>

Or you can check attached Presets.xml by opening them with Notepad and see if it fits your own image for NTLiting.
OP's show:
<ImageInfo>
<Version mode="offline">Windows 10 IoTEnterpriseS (21H2) x64 - 10.0.19044.1288 (en-US)</Version>
<GUID>{5DDBA092-BDBB-44A9-BB33-B675FAACE463}</GUID>
</ImageInfo>
Not everybodys need for at NTLited Windows is the same - not even for gaming although there are some really experienced Gamer Gurus here in the forum who are worth learning from.
 
Found another issue. If you use Cru (Custom Resolution Utility) it will result in you booting to black screen. You can work around this by having one monitor with a resolution that is not modified or plugging in your monitor into another port prior to boot. You can plug it back into the port where you have modified your resolution after booting.

Short Review of GamerOS
The OS runs great, better than stock LTSC and performance wise I am very happy with the results. In my case I did not use the post setup script, I was going to run a test build with it but NTLite errored every time I tired integrating it into the iso. Also in my experience "optimization" scripts break things more often then they improve performance so i this is a rabbit hole I am not even going to bother going to bother pursuing further.

So my verdict is that I like the OS but with all the issues I have experienced to get it working I cannot recommenced this for the average user or people who don't have time to spend installing windows several times over to trouble shoot. In my case it took 3 straight days of troubleshooting with each test ISO taking an hour to create setup/install/test. If you are going to run this OS a dual boot setup is a must one for playing games and another standard windows install.

Edit: I see Linus tech tips just released a video on AtlasOS another stripped down version of windows like GamerOS. His results with Atlas were actually really impressive which just goes to show just how bloated windows is these days and proves there is a use case for slim operating systems like GamerOS. In the future for fun I might try to run the Atlas wizard over a build of gameros just to test if further improvements can be had.

Sorry but the issues are not uniquely mine. Try loading up Halo Infinite on stock GamerOS and let me know how that goes for you. You might say that the issues I experienced are unique to Halo Infinite, but I think my criticisms are fair, this is a "Gamer" OS after all and for my game of choice it was incompatible without further tweaking.

The GamerOS is a template, not the be-all and end all. I am actually running GamerOS with infinite and haven't had an issue.

The issues you had may be down to the system you currently have, as no-one else has had issues with audio like you have from a preset, otherwise, this thread would be full of people commenting about it.

AS previously stated, the preset is a GUIDE to be ADAPTED to individuals needs. I'm sorry if that part of what i am trying to explain to you is something you do not comprehend.

Did you manage to fix the Bluetooth Menu not showing when clicking on the add new button ?. I tried commenting out all I could from the .xml file and I still cannot get it to work.

大家好，首先感谢你们的努力。我遇到了一个问题，我已经根据需要从XML设置中删除了“<c>hwsupport_bluetooth 'Bluetooth'</c>”项，并检查了所有的是栓我点击时仍然无法使用它在设置中添加新设备。有朋友解决了这个问题吗？任何帮助将不胜感激。
