unslop-windows v1.4.0

Added

  • Windows 11 26H2 (Build 26300+) Full Platform Support: Added native identification of Windows 11 26H2 ("Windows 11 2026 Update", Build 26300+) in unslop-win11.ps1 ($osTag = if ($build -ge 28000) { "26H1" } elseif ($build -ge 26300) { "26H2" } ...) and unslop.bat, eliminating "25H2" misclassification in logs and console banners.
  • Click to Do Screen OCR Analysis Neutralization: Added DisableClickToDo = 1 under HKLM/HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsAI and HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\ClickToDo with 100% symmetrical -Undo removal, preventing on-demand screen scraping and OCR indexing.
  • Recall Hardening Policies: Added AllowRecallEnablement = 0 (preventing activation in Settings) and AllowRecallExport = 0 (blocking snapshot vector export) under HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsAI.
  • Settings AI Agent & Agent Connectors Neutralization: Added DisableSettingsAgent = 1 (disabling natural language SLM in Windows Settings) and ConfigureAgentConnectors = 2 (ForceDisable autonomous AI agent system connectors) under WindowsAI.
  • MS Paint Generative AI Killswitches: Added DisableImageCreator = 1, DisableCocreator = 1, and DisableGenerativeFill = 1 under HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Paint.
  • File Explorer Cloud Graph & Prelaunch Suppression: Added DisableGraphRecentItems = 1 (stopping File Explorer from polling Microsoft Graph for cloud activity/recommendations) and DisableFileExplorerPrelaunch = 1 under HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer.
  • CloudContent Promotional Screen Suppression: Added DisableCopilotPinScreen = 1 (blocking full-screen Copilot taskbar pin nags) and DisableGetStarted = 1 under HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CloudContent. Added DisableSpotlightCollectionOnDesktop = 1 and DisableThirdPartySuggestions = 1 under HKCU.
  • DataCollection Log & Dump Minimization: Added LimitDiagnosticLogCollection = 1 and LimitDumpCollection = 1 under HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection.
  • ConsentStore Notification Harvesting Revocation: Enforced userNotificationListener capability (Value = "Deny") with symmetrical restore back to "Allow".
  • 26H2 Flighting FeatureConfig Telemetry Scheduled Tasks: Added wildcard query and disablement of active telemetry tasks under \Microsoft\Windows\Flighting\FeatureConfig\* (including UsageDataReporting, UsageDataReceiver, UsageDataFlushing, ReconcileFeatures, GovernedFeatureUsageProcessing).
  • Performance Feedback & WER Scheduled Tasks: Added disablement of PerformanceTrace\ShowFeedbackToast, PerformanceTrace\WhesvcToast, Windows Error Reporting\QueueReporting, Shell\FamilySafetyMonitor, and Shell\FamilySafetyRefreshTask.
  • 26H2 AppX Bloatware & Start Menu Companions: Added Microsoft.PowerAutomateDesktop and MicrosoftCorporationII.MicrosoftFamily to $bloatApps. Suppressed Start Menu Companions Phone Link panel (Start\Companions\Microsoft.YourPhone...) under -KeepPhoneLink gate.
  • Unit & AST Test Suite Expansion: Added Pester test coverage in tests/unslop-win11.Tests.ps1 verifying 26H2/26300 descending build ordering and AST declarations for all new 26H2 AI and telemetry policies.
  • Architectural Decision Record (ADR-032): Documented 26H2 enablement architecture, decompiled ADMX schemas, and AI slop hardening in docs/decisions.md.

Fixed

  • Build 26300 Misidentification: Fixed an issue where Windows 11 26H2 hosts were misidentified as "25H2" because $build -ge 26200 was evaluated prior to checking for Build 26300.
