That component really needs more protection at this point, since it comes up too often. Can this please be looked into, nuhi?

Regardless of whether NTLite processes things in the correct order or not, it is still recommended to consider these aspects. If you remove the NTLite tool from the equation, it does make sense, because registry keys are tied to components and are removed during an uninstall. Registry keys are...

Some members were confused over terminology and language barriers in the past, so I previously wrote a post (link) to help with that. Benchmarking and other similar testing should always be performed on a clean and default install of Windows, unless the situation requires something else. A...

We don't understand what your thread is trying to teach us though, because it has no details and the sentences are incomplete. People using translators should ensure they write with proper grammar and spelling, otherwise when it converts to English it results in nonsensical statements.

On my dual SSD setup (W10 22H2), I tested a previous question today of, "Does using multiple disk drives affect performance?" The basic premise that has been touted over time, is that people should install Windows on C: drive and then other software, such as video games, on D: drive. This is...

Back when W7 was first released, I started researching how to manage .NET frameworks to make the bloat tolerable, and this script (link) is what I settled on. It's been years now, but I think this was first introduced in a fairly obscure Microsoft internals team blog post. To use it, copy the...

For the queue stuff, I don't know the entirety of everything that kicks off, but so far what I know is this: 1) Runs all Scheduled Tasks, which there is over 100 on a default W10/W11 install nowadays. 2) Has the registry do a ton of updating, changing over 3,000 keys. 3) Adds to the counters...

I imagine it would work without issue if the batch file or command was added into the "After login" post-setup. I don't think it can properly run beforehand, because the scheduled tasks might not be installed or ready to utilize until a user logs in. I'm only making an educated guess though, and...

Thanks, good idea. I went back and updated that post, which then made me remember that I later learned how to do it without a batch file, so I added that new information and attached the script too. For sure. I finally got time to really get back into all my computer stuff this week and for the...

This is an informational post which compares the performance data of Windows 10 and 11. The purpose of this is to help show users how to benchmark, and to see if the tests can determine which of the latest ISO images has better performance overall. One thing I hope this post will do, is to get...

It's helpful to learn a little about white paper aspects, but honestly it's not that important, because what actually matters is how things behave in the real world, which usually differs from what developers and tech enthusiasts claim. That is why I test literally everything I can, because...

Yeah, it's a lot to take in at first, but pace yourself and before you know it you'll have a custom Windows. There's guides on the forum that walk users through much of it, such as this one (link), which goes through the steps of downloading an ISO, preparing a USB for Windows installation, and...

I just checked the unanswered questions and noticed your thread had slipped through the cracks. Do you still need assistance in solving the paint error or other issues? If so, please attach the current preset you are using (NTLite .XML file), with licenses and passwords removed. Also, be sure to...

Another member recently commented about using DVDs for testing too, so I wanted to ask what the reasoning behind this choice is, instead of pasting the files into a USB and installing Windows that way--to both speed up the install process and save DVD media.

These are slightly different conversations--Clang2 is inquiring if the "Per-User Service" tweak is related or works alongside the "SvcHostSplitThresholdInKB" tweak that has been discussed a few times on the forum (link1, link2). I think the answer is it's similar in concept, but not directly...

When searching around for answers that don't return with results that seem relevant, like to this question, try using Google and Boolean logic in order to do a more accurate search, by typing the following exactly as shown, including the quotes: "Reset this PC" site:ntlite.com It returns with a...

I ran into this problem while using someone else's preset for testing, and when I asked the same question (link) the community felt the culprit was likely the Scheduled Task of TextServicesFramework/MsCtfMonitor being disabled.

I think this is a great question, with a few offshots that I've contemplated over the years too, but I never got around to testing it yet. I'll have to get back to you on this one, because I have some ideas that you got me thinking about, but I also see some challenges, so I'm unsure how it will...

What's the purpose behind wanting to integrate these, when the manifest will install them anyway?
