Hi folks
Not sure what this is but it seems to emanate from Microsofts own code -- and I can't see any "contaminant" in it -- in any case on this Clean installed version of windows I haven't installed any Non Ms software yet !!!! apart from Desktop wallpaper image that I've had for Donkeys years without a single issue.

Any ideas any one - build is 22543 W11 X-64 PRO UK version from UUPDUMP.
The only A/V software I'm using is WD.

Cheers
jimbo

This is highly unlikely to come from Microsoft: if Microsoft wanted some code to run on startup it would create a scheduler task, not put it into Startup folder (which gets executed by the File Explorer, so would not run if someone uses a different shell or command prompt as shell replacement).

You can look into the script to see what does it do.

It's just two lines

blank
(checked also there's no hidden hex code or whatever).
ran this from WINPE with Windows 11 ISO image

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:E:\Sources\install.wim where E was the ISO image.
rebooted and all OK again.
