Hi Chris! You can use expert mode from options to show more functionality for this app.

Im using this tool for years now and as you said I really really hope some good soul will pick up the project and update it

Good call Chris! 'Been using this one since 2017 w/ HUGE success...I use it to build images/make backup images as well!

finally you are covering this, i asked you several times over the past few years to look into dism++ :P its my standard tool to install, backup or optimize windows systems :D

Thanks for all

My favorite windows shortcut is win + x then g - it brings up computer management which has all the essential tools I need in one window :)

Thanks for the video!!

many thanks..appreciate sharing your knowledge brother. peace.

Thanks for another interesting video, Chris. I am wondering about something... Can your Windows Utility be used to (as you put it) "rip out" the Windows update completely and allow use of Windows with ONLY manual updating? Also removing the frustrating compulsory reboots...? I intend to buy a new laptop soon, and to use it primarily with Linux... and then to run Windows 10 or 11 (or both) in QEMU VM(s). Since I expect to only need those Windows VMs occasionally, I would like to "streamline" them as much as possible and remove all of the bloat and resource-hogging, as well as phone-home components. I'm hoping your Windows Utility will be sufficient for achieving that...?

So, would this make for a good windows update tool if you're using something like a Windows 11 light system that installs by default without windows updates functionality? Or would it be simpler to use the power shell way of doing updates? What about applying updates to insider previews on unsupported hardware? Hate having to manually grab ISO's to update.

Security anxiety and China phobia while using Windows? That is a tough row to hoe. I'm busy now purging my brain of a lot of ridiculous images. Thanks Chris.

Chris I found an issue on the Windows Utility, if you choose disable storage sense while it is already disabled it will turn it back on. I hope this doesn’t happen with other options and I just wanted to let you know

Sysinternals AutoRuns can deal with system-wide startup programs, very detailed. I kinda stick to the old school manual ways of optimizing without using software tools, especially for these easier tasks. This is kinda redundant tool imho.

Nice.and just in time too.gonna reinstall windows after my PC upgrade.

If you had time to spare, you could have forked it and called it CTTism++, son of DISM++ 😆

Cloud you use it from command line? I would love to automate the check for windows update and install in the background when I run a script or setup a task scheduler.

Oh I have that tool. It was not updated since a lot of time.

do you think you could add the startup stuff into your tool if not lowkey might take a crack at it

just watched the NT lite one and this popped up in my feed

I have many times been able to boot in CMD via recovery and run DISM++ from another drive and then execute bootmgr repair to get into a broken Windows that Windows Startup repait itself couldn't repair... usually something to do with me not running my OS on the M.2 drive.

Microsoft Powertoys has a hosts file editor now :D Which is very awesome

Chris windows + run netplwiz does the same as control user:passwords2. It faster, good vid btw 😉

Chris, your videos are always informative, often useful or at least pretty entertaining :), but please consider not using ableist language. Thank you!

can you make a tool that setup a mail server in full and automatic (a better version of mail in the box or LukeSmithxyz/emailwiz script) ?

How does it compare with BleachBit? I use it to clean my disk monthly

Still looking forward to that thumbnail video for Linux

Well, winreducer is a great alterantive, though the development has slowed down alot lately

please make a video on how to delete old or previous update's on windows

😊

How would i pre install brave using this. i cant find anything on .sut and idk how to do the postOobe scripting

Like a mad lad, I ran SDI on a Windows 7 install and borked it. Hard crashes at Windows startup and sartup repair doesn't resolve it. Any suggestions? 😵‍💫

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Good video.

It kind of sucks that all free windows debloaters are no longer being developed and the only alternative is using NTlite which is too expensive for most people.

Kinda sorta looks like a bleachbit type of application running as root, but has a much better UI.

I am looking for a modern ghost or bootable PE to capture wim.

add this to your utility?

For Windows Updates, i use wumgr

Only the update tab is usable.

You might want to inform people that the download of the database for Windows update takes AGES!!!

bummer, i was looking for something for work but my company bans usage of software from china, russia, north korea (and some others) over serious concerns of security and bad faith. Strongly encourage people keep that in mind.

improved windows cleaner

Can you please make a Video About CCEnhancer.

You have LookinGlass on it? Is this an VM?

What even is a "secure environment" ?

How can I use DISM++ to remove a driver?

why dont you take usefull feature in your software

bruh, what's with the close up action?

Why do you hate OneDrive?

not really an open source project

CCleaner nah?

I like your videos but a lot of what you show and use cannot be installed on a government enterprise environment.

I would be very careful using apps like this, windows generally just isn’t worth messing with. I learnt the hard way after years of using NTlite

As soon as I heard Chinese....I jumped ship.

Pegasun is much better

gee, man, u have a lotta stuff installed!!!!! u sure u would not be better off going portable?

This guy is constantly pushing software with dubious security. Be careful with what this dude recommends.

yea not using commie software like ever but watching it to see whats out there

Another cleaning tool 🙄

good 👍
