Any chance to see preview builds of Hyper-V Server?
Great to see LTSC builds flighting again. We've already started some small-scale preliminary testing, and all is going great so far. But as I have also plain Hyper-V Server deployed here and there, it would be nice to try that one too. It doesn't need to follow weekly cadence. Not at all. Just when there are some substantial changes to networking merged. That'll be more than enough.1.5KViews1like4CommentsMinimizing Server footprint
Hi everyone, although this place seems rather empty to me, I'll hope that some feedback actually gets through. I did look at Feedback Hub Server category, as advised in the 17046 build announcement, but that's basically a mess. First, I'm kind of a footprint enthusiast so I'm amazed how far has the current server build progressed. 2.5 GBwhen deployed compact, without recovery partition, pagefile, and with unused feature payload removed, is super awesome (comparing to previous server releases). But I have3 further hints for a substantial improvements in this regard: 1) Thereseems to be leftovercache files inC:\Windows\Speech andC:\Windows\Speech_OneCore thatcan really be removed as Speech Recognition isn't AFAIK supported in Core installation. 2) Afteruninstalling Windows Defender, about 150 MB of unnecessary files remain in "C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Windows Defender" directory, that could have been removed automatically. 3) Removal of Wow64 Support role doesn't work well. After uninstalling the Wow64 Support role AND removing the payload, there still remain about 300 MB of files in C:\Windows\SysWOW64 whichshould be now useless. But even then,simple 32-bit executables still run. Thanks for consideration and keep up the good work. -- Jan Ringoš4KViews1like5Comments
