Medicat VHD Changelog

Version 21.06 VHD

Changelog for v21.06 VHD:

Added:

  • Discord
  • All Visual C++ Redistributables (2005 - 2019)
  • Dot Net Framework v6.0.0 Preview 5
  • VLC Player x64 v3.0.14
  • 7-Zip x64 v21.02 aplha
  • Notepad++ v8.1
  • Google Chrome v91.0.4472.114 (Official x64) with uBlock Origin (ad blocker) installed.
  • “Take Ownership” context menu registry entry.
  • “Small Taskbar Icons” registry hack, since the taskbar for Windows 11 lacks the traditional “Use small taskber icons” in the settings.

Removed:

  • Telemetry as much as possible, everything tweaked for performance and privacy to the best of my ability.
  • Bloatware stripped out using NTLite. Leftover apps uninstalled manually after installation.
  • Hibernation disabled.
  • Pagefile disabled.
  • System Restore disabled, but still functional if you want it back on again.

Updated Apps and Changes:

  • Jayro’s Lockpick (updated by @AAA3A)
  • Jayro’s Toolbox is now a shortcut box in the Start Menu. Click it to open it and show the tool icons.
  • Due to changes in Windows 11, I’m unable to make a God Mode shortcut on the Desktop. I had to seek out a new option, so God Mode is now pinned to the Start Menu. Open it, and it will list everything God Mode has to offer as shortcuts.
  • The only drivers added were installed silently by Windows after installation. These are AMD chipset and APU drivers, and possibly others.

Fixed:

  • TPM 2.0 patched and working.
  • Windows Update and the Microsoft Store are now working in this build.
  • Removed bandwidth limitations.
  • Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience.

Known issues:

  • Middle-clicking an already open app in the taskbar doesn’t open another instance of the running app like you’d think, this could just be a minor Windows regression. This was found out by Linus Sebastion on Linus Tech Tips, so props to him for discovering this bug.
  • Once in a while a ‘feature update’ for handwriting stuff pops up trying to install and it will fail, and can be completely ignored as it’s harmless. Just an annoying nag on occasion.
