Disable these ads from appearing in the Pen Menu?

[zyr3344]

I want to disable these things when deploying offline, just like removing CDM can prevent ads on the start menu.

You can export this reg key, after updating the Pen Menu:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CloudStore\Store\DefaultAccount\Current\default$windows.data.input.inkandpen.pensettingshortcuts\windows.data.input.inkandpen.pensettingshortcuts]

This data stream is an array of unknown byte values, followed by a JSON list of pinned apps.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CloudStore\Store\DefaultAccount\Current\default$windows.data.input.inkandpen.pensettingshortcuts\windows.data.input.inkandpen.pensettingshortcuts]
"Data"=hex(3):43,42,01,00,0A,02,01,00,2A,06,93,DF,91,C0,06,2A,2B,0E,72,43,\
42,01,00,CB,50,12,01,34,7B,00,22,00,41,00,70,00,70,00,4C,00,69,00,73,00,74,\

3A,00,74,00,72,00,75,00,65,00,7D,00,00,00,00,00

Roughly translated back into ASCII:

"Data"="{"AppListItems":[],"AttemptedAddJournalButton":true}"

"Data"="{"AppListItems":[{"AppKind":1,"AppAumid":"Microsoft.WindowsCalculator_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App","IsPWSDefaultExperience":false},{"AppKind":1,"AppAumid":"Microsoft.MicrosoftStickyNotes_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App","IsPWSDefaultExperience":false},{"AppKind":1,"AppAumid":"Microsoft.Paint_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App","IsPWSDefaultExperience":false},{"Ap
pKind":1,"AppAumid":"Microsoft.WindowsCamera_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App","IsPWSDefaultExperience":false}],"AttemptedAddJournalButton":true}"

If you wanted a different list of Pen Menu apps, make your changes and export the reg key.

Remove Pen Service from Multimedia and make sure you've disabled these Settings:

For W11 22H2:

Maybe OP should update to latest 22H2?
