    Guide: Optimized Image

    I add these types of things to my todo list and will eventually look into them, but it's usually tweaks I already have. As Garlin explains above, and as I mentioned recently (link1) to the users with broken images, the main problem on this forum is that most people aren't really understanding...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    The guide introduction and FAQ explains the nuances in more detail, but 23H2 and 24H2 are only for W11, and so far I've seen nothing in news articles or tweaking communities indicating they are polished versions worthy of benchmarking. If you want to look into it yourself, use LatencyMon and...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    You and audiobabble both mentioned this and I was able to investigate it (link) recently, concluding that it's operator error via conflicting tweaks. You both use extra tweaking outside of my guide, so unless we can identify a step that is causing confusion to my readers then I'm not sure where...

    Windows Update, but not as we know it...

    I did a reinstall last night on my computer using the Optimized Image exactly as-is, and it worked properly. Nothing was installed by Windows Update and I ran the entire task scheduler afterward too, but the computer was still in my control and there were no updates downloaded or installed. A...

    Windows Update, but not as we know it...

    After piecing together information from your latest posts, I can see that you won't resolve the majority of issues until you do a reinstall of Windows. I'd recommend doing a BIOS update and then reset it to defaults to weed out any quirks caused by the battery. In Windows Setup, make sure to...

    GamerOS Windows 10 & 11 DIY Preset

    I'm just quickly chiming in to give my view...I don't see my guide as competition to presets, rather it's an alternative or supplement to them. Presets use component removals, while my guide uses registry edits, and we share the goal of reducing overhead. It's like choosing between freshwater...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    The registry is easier to learn and troubleshoot, but can also be a lot of work sometimes. For example, if you've got several dozen power overrides, it would take an equal amount of tweaks inside a .reg file to address that. In this case, I've already done all the legwork in my guides, otherwise...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    When no post-setup parameters are specified, NTLite will just run the file, the same as if a user double-clicked on it from a live desktop. Parameters are typically needed more in the "Before logon" section of post-setup, since without silent parameters there it can prevent Windows from...

    Using NTLite's "Registry" menu to specifically integrate deletions for "Override" and "Prov" keys won't work due to a timing issue. I mentioned that in the last reply, where I was saying the deletions have to be moved to post-setup, because these override keys are dynamically generated during...

    Safe depends on what the tweak is. I've only tested it on a desktop and a laptop I own, but so far it's been safe for me to delete all the "Override" and "Prov" keys that are generated later by Windows. Each registry path contains information about what the keys do if you want to manually read...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    Here's my previous discussions (link1, link2) on power overrides, but the gist of what's happening is that Windows automatically adds up to 4 different registry keys in multiple places, depending on the power capabilities of the hardware in use, when the operating system is first installed. The...

    I need to wrap this up, so I can start working on my own image and guides again. I jumped ahead and solved it:

    Guide: Optimized Image

    Thank you, and yeah that's why it's confusing, because I couldn't know if you did follow the third paragraph, since there was a lack of details provided. If people aren't explaining to me what they are and aren't doing, then I can't follow along and help, since I'm just fumbling in the dark. If...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    I'm going to be frank with a general note here, based on problems I've dealt with this year from inexperienced members. For those that want to see future assistance and guide updates from me (if you don't care, please move on) then more effort needs to be put into requests for assistance. I've...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    The topic of W11 (23H2/24H2) has been inquired on dozens of times. I get where you're coming from in prodding me, but it's already answered and implied in several areas of my guide as well as in replies to this thread and other popular ones too. All my guides focus on W10, because I've proven...

    Guide: Optimized Image

    Good video, but that wasn't what I was asking for. Please read my reply again and get back to me. You skipped the entire third paragraph, which I gave explicit instructions on how to carry that out manually through the user interface, not through registry files. The point of this troubleshooting...

    I'll download that program and see if I can replicate it, but while I'm doing that it would be really helpful if you could use the following information to find the specific culprit on your computer too, that way we can see if we come to the same conclusion, in order to verify if the tweak or...

    Setting background color

    That's expected using purple.reg, because the point of that other thread was for having a jpg wallpaper at the desktop and lock screen, as well as purple accent colors and the dark app/system scheme. Also, a black background will only be visible with purple.reg if the wallpaper path isn't valid...

    I responded to the latest message on another thread (link) that was related to this one.
