Windows ADK Installation Features

[pablo]

I updated my Win 11 Pro to v26H2. Now I want to install the latest Windows ADK (v10.1.26100.9457, September 2026) for my future TBWinPE builds. The nine default features suggested by Microsoft result in a huge 1.8 GB installation. Which features are necessary for TBWinPE builds and which features are safe to uncheck? Are 'Deployment Tools' all I need to install?

After installation, I'll follow up with the Windows PE Installer adkwinpesetup v10.1.26100.9457.

Deployment Tools, then WinPE.

Remember that you only need the "10" folder. After installing WADK+PE, you can copy "10" to a location outside the OS partition, and uninstall WADK.
