     This is a script created to automate the build of a streamlined Windows 11 image, similar to tiny10.
     My main goal is to use only Microsoft utilities like DISM, and no utilities from external sources.
     The only executable included is oscdimg.exe, which is provided in the Windows ADK and it is used to create bootable ISO images.
