…ript (#5086)

Invoke-WinUtilISOScript.ps1's PostInstall script set DisableFileSyncNGSC
to 1, which FirstLogon.ps1 (from #4409) then immediately overrides back
to 0. The final value was correct, but only because one script undoes
the other's write on every install.

Removes the redundant PostInstall write so FirstLogon.ps1's existing
0 assignment is the only place setting this value.

Verified the script still parses correctly after the change.

* Warn instead of logging tweak completed after a step error

Invoke-WinUtilTweaks wrote "Apply tweak completed" unconditionally, even
when Invoke-WinUtilScript or another helper had just logged an ERROR for
that tweak. The job layer already counts those errors, so snapshot the
count after the header line and compare at the end: log a WARN line with
the error count when it grew, otherwise the existing completed line.

Two Pester cases run the real logger and script runner against a temp
log file to pin both outcomes.

* Count tweak step errors from the shared log list

The job error counter only increments inside a Start-WinUtilJob worker.
Toggle switches call Invoke-WinUtilTweaks directly on the UI thread, so
a failing toggle still logged "tweak completed" after its ERROR line.

Every ERROR line is added to $sync.LoggedErrors from any runspace, and
Invoke-WinUtilAutoRun already reads it as a before/after delta, so the
tweak runner now does the same. The completion-status tests run without
the worker flag and seed an earlier unrelated error, and a new case
covers a failing UndoScript.

* Count tweak errors on the logging runspace, not the shared list

Diffing $sync.LoggedErrors charged a toggle with errors a concurrent
job logged from its own runspace. Global scope is per runspace, so the
logger now bumps the runspace counter for every headline error and the
tweak status diffs that. Job workers still reset the counter at start
and end, so job results are unchanged.
- Update driver injection checkbox tooltip to describe individual package injection instead of a single DISM pass
- Make modification working label conditional so it displays 'Preparing setup media' when driver injection is disabled
- Update documentation screenshot to show the current 3-step wizard layout and vertical status log
* Add friendly explanations for common DISM exit codes

Invoke-WinUtilISODism threw only a raw exit code on DISM failure
(e.g. "DISM add-driver failed with exit code 112"), leaving users to
look up what the number means themselves.

Adds a $knownExitCode lookup table mapping common Windows/DISM exit
codes (disk full, access denied, file/path not found, file in use,
timeout, etc.) to plain-English explanations. When a failure's exit
code is recognized, the thrown message now includes the explanation
in parentheses; unrecognized codes fall back to the original
plain-number message.

Verified the script still parses correctly after the change.

* Add missing period to fallback DISM error message

* Add tests for DISM known/unknown exit code error messages

Adds a test verifying a known exit code (112) produces the friendly
explanation in the thrown message, alongside the existing test
verifying an unrecognized code still falls back to the plain
numeric message.

Verified: all 35 tests in win11creator.Tests.ps1 pass.

* Document DISM friendly error messages in Win11 Creator troubleshooting

Adds a Troubleshooting table row explaining the new DISM error
message format (exit code + explanation in parentheses), with
guidance for the most common cases and a link to Microsoft's full
error code reference for anything not explained.

* Fix duplicate DISM calls in unmapped exit code test

The unmapped-code test called Invoke-WinUtilISOScript twice — once
via Should -Throw, once to capture the message for the no-parens
check — causing $script:dismCalls to double-count. Consolidated to
a single call, checking both the exit code and the absence of a
parenthesized explanation against one captured exception message.

Verified: all 36 tests in win11creator.Tests.ps1 pass.

* Fix broken DISM error code reference link in docs

Replaced the dead windows-hardware/manufacture link with Microsoft's
actual System Error Codes reference page, which DISM exit codes
correspond to.

* Strengthen DISM fallback regression coverage

* fix(windows update): prevent sudden restart

Microsoft has documented that the `NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers` registry
key is unreliable and does not work as described in newer versions of Windows.

To effectively prevent unexpected restarts in modern configurations,
this PR updates the `Recommended` settings workflow on the `Updates` tab.

Changes
- Modify `AUOptions` to 3: automatic download and manual installation.
- Remove the obsolete registry key.
- Keep the removal of the registry key in functions that reset Windows Update to default.
- Update UI text and documentation.
- Update Pester tests.

Microsoft documentation:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/deployment/update/waas-restart

Resolves #5093

* Clarify update installation notification behavior

* style(ui): replace 'Get' with 'Select'

To a programmer, 'Get' means read the current state. To a lay user, 'Get' means obtain or download (like the 'Get' button in the Microsoft Store).
'Select' indicates exactly what it does and maintains parallelism with 'Select All'.

* docs: align installed tweak references with selection labels

* style(ui): clarify scope in the note

- clarify which command affects only the current user and which affects all users
- replace StackPanel with WrapPanel to prevent text clipping at 200% font scaling

* fix(ui): scope AppX installation note to local registration

* Fix WaaSMedicSvc restoration using direct registry write

Set-Service fails on WaaSMedicSvc with Access Denied since it's a
protected service (LaunchProtected=2). FirstLogon.ps1 silently
swallowed this failure via -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue, permanently
leaving WaaSMedicSvc disabled after setup.

Removes WaaSMedicSvc from the Set-Service restoration loop and
restores it via a direct registry write instead, matching the same
technique already used to disable it in WinUtil-PostInstall.ps1.

Added a test verifying the old Set-Service-based restoration is gone
and the new registry-write fix is present.

Addresses the WaaSMedicSvc portion of #5095; the broader AppX/Store
failure investigation is out of scope for this change.

* Assert exact registry-write contract for WaaSMedicSvc test

Per CodeRabbit review: the previous assertion only checked that
Set-ItemProperty and WaaSMedicSvc appeared near each other, which
would pass even with a wrong -Value or -Type. Now asserts the
complete command including -Value 3 and -Type DWord.

* Surface service restoration failures in FirstLogon.log

BITS, wuauserv, UsoSvc, and WaaSMedicSvc restoration all used
-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue, which suppresses errors before they
reach the output stream FirstLogon.ps1 redirects to its log file
(*>&1 ... >> FirstLogon.log). This meant any restoration failure —
not just the WaaSMedicSvc one already fixed — was invisible even in
the log.

Changed -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue to Continue on both the
Set-Service loop and the WaaSMedicSvc registry write, so failures
still don't halt the script but now actually land in
FirstLogon.log for troubleshooting.

Addresses the logging portion of the reporter's suggestion in #5095.

* Assert -ErrorAction Continue in WaaSMedicSvc test

Per CodeRabbit review: the existing test only checked the
Set-ItemProperty command and value, not the -ErrorAction Continue
change made for logging. Extended the same test to also assert
both the Set-ItemProperty and Set-Service lines use Continue instead
of SilentlyContinue.

* Extend WaaSMedicSvc test to cover full ErrorAction Continue

Per CodeRabbit review: the registry-write assertion stopped at
-Type DWord, so a regression back to -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
would still pass. Extended the pattern to include -ErrorAction
Continue at the end of the command.

* Exercise FirstLogon service restoration behavior
