Well, it is now clear that the long pause at Welcome... after login lasting several minutes depends on Internet connection. If I block Internet, the pause lasts up to 5-6 minutes. If I allow it instead, the pause lasts just one minute or so. Despite I removed pretty everything (OOBE, M$ Store...

I can confirm, as I wrote in another thread, this trick is apparently not working in W10 22H2. I tried from an unmodified image, just adding the purple.reg file in the Registry section. The default theme still gets installed. I don't know if that happens because I skip OOBE and create my admin...

Hi, this time I can finally attach my Win10 preset, now that it is approaching perfection (WARNING, inappropriate slaughterworks content, not for susceptible people). However for few seconds after boot I notice these suspicious tasks in Task Manager (despite Suspended): -Windows Backup (5)...

Thank you Nuhi for you kind and comprehensive answer ! I now understood these details better, really. So you are pretty confirming that no update is applied automatically after my tweaks. That's really what I wanted to know. I just had some doubts on what exactly happens during Windows setup...

I am very embarrassed but being still a beginner I really ignore this aspect, please try to be patient with me and don't make me feel even more uncomfortable ;) I really haven't understood how updates work yet. I tried to read the guide and help sections but that didn't help, evidently I still...

OOBE is for me one of the worst bloats, and I feel better removing it completely ;) One of my goal is really having an ISO deprived of unwanted stuff, not just disabling stuff by Registry or Settings or Services section. In the end, after much experimenting it looks like the randomly short or...

I must reiterate that as a beginner I may still ignore some details about NTL and Windows in general, so I still apologize. You are pretty suggesting to apply some tweaks or fine-tuning after installation; but this IMHO is quite against NTL phylosophy... I mean, my (our ?) goal should be coming...

I apologize for not providing a preset, I do understand its importance for debugging. But this case, if I am allowed to say it, is different. Mine just wanted to be a generic question, in case somebody had a vague idea about a problem which AFAIK might show up frequently (but evidently not ;) )...

I am of course grateful for the time you spend for me trying to help :) And no, I am not surely stupid, OTC, I am a scientist and coder lol, I am just a beginner in *this scenario*, which is another story ;) Anyway, do you think that using a 22H2 ISO taken from uupdump.net rather than from...

Dear, please try to understand two things. 1. For a beginner it is not easy to figure out everything and most things are NOT obvious as they are for you. I think that setting up a beginner's section in this forum would not be a bad idea, so at least who wants to help knows in advance the proper...

Uhm... as usual, I was optimistic for nothing :( I added these to my .reg file, following your suggestion: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes] "InstallTheme"="" "InstallThemeLight"=""...

Oh makes sense, thanks ! I was actually suspecting a similar thing. And now I saw you explained here how to do it: https://www.ntlite.com/community/index.php?threads/how-can-i-change-the-default-settings-when-windows-finishes-installing.3296/ Btw try to understand and to bear patience, I am...

Hi, it looks like there is NO WAY to set the background color of a a Windows 10 installation (22H2) devoid of background pictures. I tried setting the relevant key (HKCU\Control Panel\Colors, Background value) to no avail, it always gets set to 0,0,0 (black) at the first boot. I tried modifying...

No offence but please allow me to disagree on your reply. First, who has not an answer to a question should simply avoid to reply ;) Second, how can I rule out for sure that this "welcome" problem is maybe well known and has often been experienced instead, so that a hint could be given to help...

Hi, I am playing hard to obtain a barebone Win10 (22H2, x64) install devoid of "side effects". As a premise, I had to remove all protections, *under my whole responsibility*, so I am NOT blaming NTL in any way of course, which in good hands is a valuable tool (my hands evidently are still a bit...

Ok but if I add hive files will they be copied automatically to the Registry and/or ISO or I shall do that manually everytime ? Cos I read somewhere that you shall also copy those .reg files to the ISO manually after creation (misinformation ?)

Sorry, I don't quite understand what stroking a key or making a sysprep really mean, keep in mind that I am not an expert yet. As for NUMLock, I use the numpad a lot and I really don't understand why Windows insists turning it off, despite it is enabled in the BIOS ! So that one must press Bloc...

Hi, please consider that I am formally still a beginner, so I apologize in advance in case there is some aspects of NTLite which I still ignore or which I understood wrongly. The Settings section is *very* convenient, but at present it does not allow setting of all custom settings available...

Thanks Hellbovine. Re: NTDev, so he is using NTLite as I suspected ! That is a bit unfair imho. Ok, his releases are free and he is not demanding money (other than donations), but I initially thought there was more hard work behind that... I mean, if he is using NTLite I see it as a 'cheat', I...

Thanks Hellbovine, as I said I checked with regedit and the required key values have effectively been added and without typos (I can attach screenshots if required). I have also added the third one, HeadlinesOnboardingComplete. Please note that in my installation I have removed pretty all M$...
