* Package exclusion improvements
- Removed AppX packages from OS package exclusion list
- Added exclusion of PowerShell ISE (source: Discord server - yes, some people still use the PowerShell ISE)
* Exclude Windows Photo Viewer from dir removal
* Improve copy operation to Ventoy drives
This change may fix the issues where there's a conflict between both Ventoy's and MicroWin's unattended answer files, causing target images to stop working as expected during OOBE

* Add @CodingWonders to the About page for his contribution and determination to make WinUtil (and MicroWin) the best software it can be!
* Remove the 'LogoSize' Parameter for About page - Make every sponsor in the sponsors list a link to ChrisTitusTech's Sponsors web link
* Change Theme Option name from 'ConfigTabButtonFontSize' to 'ConfigUpdateButtonFontSize' - Lower its value from 16 to 14
* Change Theme Option name from 'FontSizeHeading' to 'HeadingFontSize' for consistency
* Update 'LinkForegroundColor' for Light Theme to be lighter which'll make link hover color more noticeable
* Update 'Show-CustomDialog' Private Function
- Made a lot of theming/styling choices for Custom Dialogs exposed as parameters.
- Update the documentation for these new parameters in 'Show-CustomDialog' Function.
- Add a Link Hover Effect using 'Add_EVENT' methods (This can be tweaks/tuned-down if needed).
- Made use of 'Title' Parameter for 'Show-CustomDialog' Function inside 'scripts/main.ps1' script, to change Dialog Window Title.
- Now you can change the Logo Size of WinUtil through the 'LogoSize' Theming Option (the option was there, but not used in implementation).
* Preprocessing result
* Fix Settings Popup not closing after losing focus - Add trivial null checks for better debugging of UI code
* Remove unnecessary whitespace indentation in 'main.ps1' script
* Add a new 'Invoke-WPFPopup' Function to Better Handle Showing/Hiding/Toggling of Popups

* update issue commands workflow
- remove existing workflow
- copy linutil's workflow into winutil
- add @CodingWonders as allowed user
* remove op from rights
- op could spam and create a ton of new labels, or spam workflow to close, reopen and so one
* issue template update
- add issue validation inspired by https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/linutil/pull/459
- standardize capitalisation of characters in titles
- update feature request to use headers instead of bold text for titles
* use "I checked" for Issue validation
* Improve 'Invoke-WPFTab' Parameter by specifying its type (as expected by the function) and make it Mandatory
* Simple performance increases in 'Invoke-WPFTab' function - Use where method instead of piping the result into Where-Object
* Remove commented-out code in 'Invoke-WPFTab' function
* Save WinUtil's json strings with DOS-Style Newline Character (CRLF) instead of Unix-Style Newline Character (LF)
Originated from PR #2816 by @ruxunderscore
* Exit Early when facing Syntax Errors, Solves a problem when passing '-Run' Argument with 'Compile.ps1' Script - Use 'Out-Null' to follow common project conventions
* KnownIssues: reformat, reorganize, clean up
- fix bad tabulation in rendered markdown. GFM is very forgiving with tabs, but most implementations require four spaces per level.
- fix headers and header depth (H3 should not be the toplevel...)
- convert some list items to headers
- fix some grammar and reword some parts
- reorganize some list elements and sections
- unify use of key shortcut presentation (`Win`+`X`)
- convert some quoted words to italics
- don't include punctuation in emphasized/quoted technical words
- better explain some of the troubleshooting steps
- add key takeaways to battery health section
- other general proofreading
* KnownIssues.md: add clarifying text
- Stray comma at the end of line 324.
- Since JSON handling is different between Powershell 5 and Powershell 7. You only notice the error during Compiling on Powershell 5. Fixes https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil/issues/2864
* Fix minor denomination problem for packages
* Fix incorrect filter of OS packages
Packages such as the metadata for capabilities (FoDs) or the foundation package were being incorrectly filtered. They were part of `Remove-ProvisionedPackages`, which only removes AppX packages. These are **OS packages**, something completely different
* Fixed indentation
* Exclude `Microsoft-RemoteDesktopConnection`
Exclude that from feature list. Fixes#2705
* Remove DISM from AppX removal listings
DISM is a system component. It will never be an AppX package. This is unnecessary
* Improve error handling for file copy
* Remove space (for some reason)
Compilation script is very adamant that this should be this way
* Exclude the VBSCRIPT Features on Demand from pkgs
Exclude the VBSCRIPT feature on demand (or capability) from package removal. Some people were reporting that excluding VBSCRIPT fixed problems with AMD chipset drivers on MicroWin
* Exclude Recall from feature listings
This fixes problems people were experiencing where the file explorer would go back to the Windows 10 layout
* Improve error output
* Add 24H2 to release list
* Detect Windows 10 and show compatibility dialog
* Disable some insane desktop stuff on Windows 10
I've only been able to disable Search Highlights. News and Interests persists
* Change policy for News and Interests
Avoid showing "Access denied" errors for this. This is still broken - News and Interests is still there. [louder]Linus Torvalds curse word here[/louder]
Anyway, if someone wants to give setting this up a shot, send me suggestions on how to do this
* Write suggestion for AV
* Hold errored packages in a list
Items are being added correctly, but I can't get that to show to the end-user. Perhaps a different approach will work
* Remove older Windows versions from download list
Sadly, the links for these had been removed by Microsoft, in favor of the latest version (24H2)
* Add sorting to error messages
Thanks @og-mrk for the suggestion and the patch (even though I applied it myself)
* Make error messages easier to view (#1)
* Make error messages easier to view
* Improve error output

* Disable Recall on first run
Keeps the Explorer look of modern Windows 11 builds whilst removing the Recall feature (which I think will manifest itself on PCs with Lunar Lake processors)
* Replace "C:\" with environment variable
This still works on single-boot configurations, but presents a more dynamic approach
* Fix Volume Mixer issues and removal of leftovers
Fix originally from @MyDrift-user on #2856
* Add missing piece to last commit
* Default to downloading OSCDIMG from GitHub repo
Chocolatey may not be the way to help us detect the presence of OSCDIMG.
Everyone, unless someone REALLY uses old deployment technology, has moved to Windows ADK 10.0
* Fix Sorting of Errored Packages by using 'Sort-Object' instead of 'IComparer' approach (#2)
Fixes startup issues in PWSH 7
* Remove reference to News and Interests from output
Even though the logic is still there, it doesn't work. I don't want to deal with that anymore. Search Highlights, on the other hand, is removed very easily
* Exclude License packages from removal
They throw an "Access denied" error when trying to remove them. This is a timesaver

* Added comment.
- Added comment to line 90.

- without the text i could make it a little bit smaller while still letting it look good.
- Renamed "Remote Desktop Connection Manager (RDCMan)" to "RDCMan" because that name is shorter and also mostly used by the linked site.
- layouted checkboxes so they are not more left than the title and look tidy.

In general, I've added two lines of code to get the explorer process using 'Get-Process', then passed the process object into 'Stop-Process', Windows will automatically restart explorer, so there's no need to run a new process for explorer.
Note: restarting explorer in the UndoScript might not be necessary, as it works just fine without it, that's according to the tests done by the author of this commit.

* A Temporary Fix to Compilation Program in 'Compile.ps1' Script (#1844)
For whatever reason, Compiling using the 'Compile.ps1' Script when there's a Single Quote, in the description of an App for example, it'll try "escaping" it by adding another Single Quote, which's kind of weird.
Before there was an Apostrophe, and it'll Compile into Question Marks, probably because the Compile Script doesn't know what an Apostrophe is, or it can't escape it (or for another reason, didn't dig deeper into it), in the end I've made it neither an Apostrophe nor a Single Quote, just the sentence without contractions (Without shortening by combining words).

* Detect free space of installation drive and compare it with the ISO size and delete temporary MicroWin files from previous runs (#1761)
* Detect free space of installation drive
Compare the size of the ISO file with the free space of the installation drive (or the drive containing the User files) and, if the free size is below a certain threshold, the script will throw either a warning or an error
* Delete temporary files from previous runs
* Add Simple Feature to keep the Service Startup upon Applying Service Tweaks, but not when Undoing it (#1760)
Added a new parameter that gives freedom of control on whether to disable this feature or not, and of course the simple feature in question.
The way it works is by Getting the service using its name, and see if the Startup Value of this service is equal to the default type that Windows comes with it, if not (The User has changed it in the past), then WinUtil won't change it by default (The KeepServiceStartup is true by default), this is a more desirable behaviour when compared to how it previously worked.
These changes were tested by the Author of this commit, Please read the commit patches for exact details on the changes.

* Improve handling of Adobe's CC Cleaner tool
This PR implements a try-catch-finally struct to do a better handling of Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner tool downloading and running of such program.
This will allow to see any errors that occurs if the URL changes, the tool fails to run, or anything else.
I also have moved the cleaning up process to the finally part of the structure, as it makes the most sense.
This tries to fix or sanitize the issue #1563.

- If you are unable to resolve christitus.com/win and are getting errors launching the tool, it might be due to India blocking GitHub's content domain and preventing downloads. You may use a VPN or change your DNS provider to Google/Cloudflare/etc.
- Windows Security (formerly Defender) and other anti-virus software are known to block the script. The script gets flagged due to the fact that it requires administrator privileges & makes drastic system changes.
- If you are having TLS 1.2 issues, or are having trouble resolving `christitus.com/win` then run with the following command:
If you are still having issues try changing your DNS provider to 1.1.1.1 || 1.0.0.1 or 8.8.8.8 || 8.8.4.4

## Walk through
* This is a guide for beginners. If you are still having issues, look at the following official GitHub documentation:
* [Commit through WEB](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/committing-changes-to-your-project/creating-and-editing-commits/about-commits)
* [Commit through GitHub Desktop](https://docs.github.com/en/desktop/making-changes-in-a-branch/committing-and-reviewing-changes-to-your-project-in-github-desktop#about-commits)
* [Create a Pull Request](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request)
While you can make your changes directly through the Web, we recommend cloning the repo to your device using the application GitHub Desktop (available in WinUtil) to test your fork easily.
* Install GitHub Desktop if it is not already installed.
* Log in using the same GitHub account you used to fork WinUtil.
* Choose the fork under "Your Repositories" and press "clone {repo name}"
* Create a new branch and name it something relatable to your changes.
* Now you can modify WinUtil to your liking using your preferred text editor.
### Testing your changes
* To test to see if your changes work as intended run following commands in a powershell teminal as admin:
* Change the directory where you are running the commands to the forked project.
* `cd {path to the folder with the compile.ps1}`
* Run the following command to compile and run WinUtil:
* `.\Compile.ps1 -run`

* After seeing that your changes work properly, feel free to commit the changes to the repository and make a PR. For help on that, follow the documentation below.
### Committing the changes
* Before committing your changes, please discard changes made to the `winutil.ps1` file, like the following:

* Now, commit your changes once you are happy with the result.

* Push the changes to upload them to your fork on github.com.

### Making a PR
* To make a PR on your repo under a new branch linking to the main branch, a button will show and say Preview and Create pull request. Click that button and fill in all the information that is provided on the template. Once all the information is filled in correctly, check your PR to make sure there is not a WinUtil.ps1 file attached to the PR. Once everything is good, make the PR and wait for Chris (the maintainer) to accept or deny your PR. Once it is accepted by Chris, you will be able to see your changes in the "/windev" build.
* If you do not see your feature in the main "/win" build, that is fine. All new changes go into the /windev build to make sure everything is working OK before going fully public.
* Congratulations! You just submitted your first PR. Thank you so much for contributing to WinUtil.
Windows Security (formerly Defender) and other anti-virus software are known to block the script. The script gets flagged due to the fact that it requires administrator privileges & makes drastic system changes.
To resolve this, allow/whitelist the script in your anti-virus software settings, or temporarily disable real-time protection. Since the project is open source, you may audit the code if security is a concern.
### Download not working
If `https://christitus.com/win` is not working, or you want to download the code from GitHub directly, you can use the direct download link:
If you are seeing errors referencing TLS or security, you may be running an older version of Windows where TLS 1.2 is not the default security protocol used for network connections. The following commands will force .NET to use TLS 1.2, and download the script directly using .NET instead of PowerShell:
If it still isn't working and you live in India, it might be due to India blocking GitHub's content domain and preventing downloads. See more on [Times of India](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/gadgets-news/github-content-domain-blocked-for-these-indian-users-reports/articleshow/96687992.cms).
If you are still having issues, try using a **VPN**, or changing your **DNS provider** to one of following two providers:
| Provider | Primary DNS | Secondary DNS |
|:------------:|:------------:|:-------------:|
| Cloudflare | `1.1.1.1` | `1.0.0.1` |
| Google | `8.8.8.8` | `8.8.4.4` |
### Script blocked by Execution Policy
1. Ensure you are running PowerShell as admin: Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select *PowerShell (Admin)* in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
2. In the PowerShell window, type this to allow unsigned code to execute and run the installation script:
```ps1
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process -Force
irm https://christitus.com/win | iex
```
## Runtime Issues
### WinGet configuration
If you have not installed anything using PowerShell before, you may be prompted to configure WinGet. This requires user interaction on first run. You will need to manually type `y` into the PowerShell console and press enter to continue. Once you do it the first time, you will not be prompted again.
### MicroWin: Error `0x80041031`
This error code typically indicates an issue related to Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI). Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:
1. **Reboot Your Computer:**
Sometimes, a simple reboot can resolve temporary issues. Restart your computer and try mounting the ISO again.
3. **Check for System Corruption:**
Run the System File Checker (SFC) utility to scan and repair system files that may be corrupted.
```powershell
sfc /scannow
```
4. **Update Your System:**
Make sure your operating system is up-to-date. Check for Windows updates and install any pending updates.
5. **Check WMI Service:**
Ensure that the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service is running. You can do this through the Services application:
- Press `Win`+`R` to open the Run dialog.
- Type `services.msc` and press Enter.
- Locate *Windows Management Instrumentation* in the list.
- Make sure to set its status to "Running" and the startup type to "Automatic".
6. **Check for Security Software Interference:**
Security software can sometimes interfere with WMI operations. Temporarily disable your anti-virus or security software and check if the issue persists. WMI is a common attack/infection vector, so many anti-virus programs will limit its usage.
7. **Event Viewer:**
Check the Event Viewer for more detailed error information. Look for entries related to the `80041031` error and check if there are any additional details that can help identify the cause.
- Press `Win`+`X` and select *Event Viewer*.
- Navigate to *Windows Logs* > *Application* or *System*.
- Look for entries with the source related to WMI or the application use to mount the ISO.
8. **ISO File Integrity:**
Ensure that the ISO file you are trying to mount is uncorrupted. Try mounting a different ISO file to see if the issue persists.
If the problem persists after trying these steps, additional troubleshooting is required. Consider seeking assistance from Microsoft support or community forums for more specific guidance based on your system configuration and the software you use to mount the ISO.

### Battery drains too fast
If you're using a laptop or tablet and find your battery drains too fast, please try the below troubleshooting steps, and report the results back to the Winutil community.
1. **Check Battery Health:**
- Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select *PowerShell (Admin)* in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
- Run the following command to generate a battery report:
- Open the generated HTML report to review information about battery health and usage. A battery with poor health may hold less charge, discharge faster, or cause other issues.
2. **Review Power Settings:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *System* > *Power & sleep*.
- Adjust power plan settings based on your preferences and usage patterns.
- Click on *Additional power settings* to access advanced power settings that may help.
3. **Identify Power-Hungry Apps:**
- Right-click on the taskbar and select *Task Manager*.
- Navigate to the *Processes* tab to identify applications with high CPU or memory usage.
- Consider reconfiguring, closing, disabling, or uninstalling applications that use a lot of resources.
4. **Update Drivers:**
- Visit your device manufacturer's website or use Windows Update to check for driver updates.
- Ensure graphics, chipset, and other essential drivers are up to date.
5. **Check for Windows Updates:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *Update & Security* > *Windows Update*.
- Check for and install any available updates for your operating system.
6. **Reduce Screen Brightness:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *System* > *Display*.
- Adjust screen brightness based on your preferences and lighting conditions.
7. **Enable Battery Saver:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *System* > *Battery*.
- Turn on *Battery saver* to limit background activity and conserve power.
8. **Check Power Usage in Settings:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *System* > *Battery* > *Battery usage by app*.
- Review the list of apps and their power usage. Disable or uninstall any you don't need.
9. **Check Background Apps:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *Privacy* > *Background apps*.
- Disable or uninstall unnecessary apps running in the background.
10. **Use `powercfg` for Analysis:**
- Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select *PowerShell (Admin)* in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
- Run the following command to analyze energy usage and generate a report:
```powershell
powercfg /energy /output "C:\energy_report.html"
```
- Open the generated HTML report to identify energy consumption patterns.
11. **Review Event Logs:**
- Open Event Viewer by searching for it in the Start menu.
- Navigate to *Windows Logs* > *System*.
- Look for events with the source *Power-Troubleshooter* to identify power-related events. These may highlight battery, input power, and other issues.
12. **Check Wake-up Sources:**
- Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select *PowerShell (Admin)* in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
- Use the command `powercfg /requests` to identify processes preventing sleep.
- Use the command `powercfg /waketimers` to view active wake timers.
- Check Task Scheduler to see if any of the discovered processes are scheduled to start on boot or at regular intervals.
13.**Advanced Identification of Power-Hungry Apps:**
- Open Resource Monitor from the Start menu.
- Navigate to the *CPU*, *Memory*, *Network*, and other tabs to identify processes with high resource usage.
- Consider reconfiguring, closing, disabling, or uninstalling applications that use a lot of resources.
14.**Disable Activity History:**
- Open the Settings app, and go to *Privacy* > *Activity history*.
- Turn off *Let Windows collect my activities from this PC*.
15.**Prevent Network Adapters From Waking PC:**
- Open Device Manager by searching for it in the Start menu.
- Locate your network adapter, right-click, and go to *Properties*.
- Under the *Power Management* tab, uncheck the option that allows the device to wake the computer.
16.**Review Installed Applications:**
- Manually review installed applications by searching for *Add or remove programs* in the Start menu.
- Check settings/preferences of individual applications for power-related options.
- Uninstall unnecessary or problematic software.
These troubleshooting steps are generic, but should help in most situations. You should have these key takeaways:
- Battery health is the most significant limiter on your device's runtime. A battery in poor health usually cannot be made to last like it used to, simply by closing some applications. Consider replacing your battery.
- Background applications that use CPU and memory, make lots of or large network requests, read/write to disk frequently, or that keep your PC awake when it could be conserving energy are the next major concern. Avoid installing programs you don't need, only use programs you trust, and configure applications to use as little power and run as infrequently as possible.
- Windows performs a lot of tasks that may affect battery life by default. Changing settings, stopping scheduled tasks, and disabling features can help the system stay in lower power states to conserve battery.
- Bad chargers, inconsistent power input, and high temperatures will cause batteries to degrade and discharge faster. Use trusted high-quality chargers, ensure input power is steady, clean any fans or airflow ports, and keep the battery/PC cool.
