Generating a tailored Windows ISO file.
Generating a tailored Windows ISO file.
Sure, you can restore your custom ISO later without reinstalling everything. Just ensure you have all necessary files and backups before proceeding. When removing components like Windows Defender, proceed carefully to avoid breaking other essential parts of the system. Clearing apps is a good idea, but verify that the remaining software functions properly after removal.
In my view, "debloating" isn't required unless you're attempting to install Windows on a potato. However, if you want to proceed, download NTLite and enjoy the process.
I’m checking if removing files from the ISO before installing NTlite still affects stability.
Manually deleting IE causes many issues with Explorer and is difficult to recover. Not advised. Removing the Microsoft Store and its applications allows them to return.
What does removing IE do? IE isn't something I use much, so it shouldn't affect anything.
