[SOLVED] [EX-100 - v1.7.7.3] [rs1_release Build 10563.11]

Hello my friends. I have the habit to create a new iso and do an in-place-upgrade everytime new updates catalog or a new winreducer version comes out. For the above i have a .wccf that works very well for me. When the 10563.11 build came out i wanted to do the same. This time i decided to also remove windows search+indexing service. After the setup finished and during the first login (when windows says that it prepares stuff,apps etc for you) it took forever (actually i waited an hour and it was still going). I got tired and powered down the laptop by holding the on-off key. I then turned it on,it entered desktop normally but taskbar items and start menu left-click was broken. I experimented with the two things i changed in my iso (windows search feature and indexing service) and i found that this happens even if in an untouched iso you only remove windows search. So windows search brakes start menu and taskbar. Last minute i discovered that it also brakes desktop right-click->personalize (perhaps and some other stuff but i did not investigate further)

Hello victor123,

I added this in my ToDo list, for the next WRSEB (next week).

Thank you very much for your report !

I wish you to have a nice day !

That Problem appeared for me aswell, but without removing search indexing.
For me, it turned out that it was caused by privacy tweaks though, in my case by the tool O&OShutup.
Somehow, these settings seem to block the update in a way that it does not install parts correctly.
This might not be a point concerning you because you might not use privacy tweaks necessarily, but I thought in case you do worth to mention.
If so, the problem might not be caused by win recducer, because I had the same result after updating a with a non modified version.

The solution would be to turn the tweaks of ( for every user account ), upgrade and turn them on.

My friend this happens even when i installed the .iso (only with search feature removed) in a virtualbox clean installation. So its a winreducer problem. But thanks for your answer.

Ok, got it wrong there then, sorry.
