Windows 10 LTSC Version 21H2 19044.1415 OptimaMod x86/x64 Preactivated m0nkrus

The basis of this assembly was the minimally loaded with all rubbish edition of Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021. Plus, I additionally had a hand in optimizing the final product. Disabled spyware, auto-update, User Account Control, Windows Defender, returned the classic "Start" and Desktop gadgets, unlocked the installation of third-party themes, optimized the OS interface, and more. At the same time, nothing was cut from the system! The settings I have specified can be easily redrawn at your request, or even return the system to its original state before all edits.

Installer modification
- The build is based on Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC distributions hosted on VSS (former MSDN) on November 17, 2021.
- At the earliest stage of the installation, there is a pre-boot menu in which you can select the bitness of the primary shell, that is, which installer will be used, 32-bit or 64-bit. Thanks to this, there is no need to worry that the 64-bit version of the OS may not stand on RAID, and that its users may find themselves without a system restore service.
- The \ sources \ sxs folder has been removed from the installation media because the packages located in it are preinstalled in the OS.
- The Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset (MSDaRT) 10 module is integrated into the system recovery service, launched from the installation media, which significantly expands the possibilities for reanimating the system.
- Fixed a feature of the Windows 10 installer, due to which in a multilingual assembly, when starting the installation from under an existing system, there was no choice of the installer interface language. In this assembly, a similar choice is provided.
- The consequences of a developer error, due to which, when integrating additional languages ​​into the distribution kit, the Notepad, WordPad and Paint applications did not receive the necessary language packs, as a result of which they did not work, have been eliminated. I put the missing files into the necessary directories of the system.
- The system is installed immediately with Russian and English language packs. The choice of language during installation only affects which of the languages ​​will be the main one. So at the end of the installation, you can easily change the interface language using standard OS tools without downloading additional files.
- The system is pre-activated by the activator W10 Digital Activation Program + KMS38 version 1.4.5.3 from Ratiborus. Upon completion of activation, the activator body is deleted from the computer.
- Due to the technical features of the assembly, from under the existing system it is possible to install only the 64-bit version of Windows 10. And only in the Custom installation mode.
- Made minor improvements to the installer interface, fixing the flaws of Microsoft programmers.
