At my job we are working with a few air gapped Windows machines which is already really annoying because Microslop doesn't offer offline installers for anything related to Windows 11 anymore. I expect this to get even more difficult over time.
Also:
I'm as anti-M$ as anyone, but this just isn't true. The windows update catalog still exists for offline patches
Ok, where can I download the Media Feature Pack for Windows 11 N as an offline installer?
That's a whole different story...UWP apps offline for an EU build is a "best of luck to you, pal" thing
Why is this arbitrarily "a whole different story" and who said anything about UWP, it's the media codecs we depend on. Windows 10 N offered an offline installer for that "optional feature" and now Microslop makes my life more difficult for no reason at all.
