Windows 10: migrating windows 10 to bare bones system

I want to upgrade my system. I am thinking of purchasing a bare bones box and move over all the plug in cards, sound, video along with the disk drive and hard drive. I am running Windows 10 which was part of the free upgrade from Windows 7. This was a academic license as part of work at home. I have since retired. What am I looking at installing my hard drive in the new system? Where would I find my product Key? Thanks in advance.

Windows 10 1903 - Bare Bones: Edge, OneDrive, Settings - 32GB HDD

I got bored while waiting for 18362.113 to be superseded (KB4500109) so I can finish a reference image... and so...
I ran:

Code:

Here's the result.









I was looking at removing Content Delivery Manager and Consumer Cloud Experience... but I think chopping the AppxPackages up and removing the advertising will work - as opposed to removing the package completely, as there are alot of other dependencies for those packages.

It's also simple enough to get the essential apps back on to the system... like calculator, and notes.

This image has only 3 apps: Edge, OneDrive and Settings.

It is also installed on a 32GB Drive... which overrides the 32GB > Minimum.











EDIT: I just had a brilliant idea. I'm going to cannibalise Server 2019 components... well... actually the other way around.
I noticed earlier that the MSU updates were identical. Which means the SKU doesn't exist anymore (it does and it doesn't).... Example: No more Win7/2K08, Win8/2K12, W10/2K16. It's all just Windows 2019.
I was able to interchange the server and desktop msu at a whim.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
