I have seen a solution similar to what I want to achieve in the
METAFUN manual but I don’t have a clue how to get that METAPOST

Here is how to get the metafun alternative working.
1. I don't understand why I need to manually input the mp-abck file;
that should be input automatically.
2. The metafun alternative is a bit inconvenient. Suppose you want to

Removed. I need to review the page. There are some weird statements there. If you are familiar with rsync: all that --keep does is omit the "--delete" flag in rsync modules. It's not exactly the same, but it is roughly "equally evil" as setting the TeX Live's option to keep the removed modules installed. Except that here it would accumulate all the files that ever existed in ConTeXt since the first day when the user first installed the distribution. When, say, fonts in TeX Live move around, users would end up with duplicate files at two locations. > I'm not a regularly context user, I maintain the installation mostly > for tests and want "an up-to-date, complete (with all modules)" > installation and was looking for a command that compares to "tlmgr > update --all" from texlive. > > Did I got it right now that I should do "first-setup.bat" and that > "first-setup.bat --keep" doesn't update the modules? No, --keep isn't related to updating modules at all. The flag would help you keep things that you install in your tree from your own sources (something that doesn't come from the distribution). But it would also keep all other outdated files. It's waay better to keep your own files elsewhere. (Even if simply under "texmf-local" that's created for you. But not in "texmf-modules" to "texmf-context" or alike.)

But you shouldn't need keep just for the sake of a potential bug. I would need to check again what exactly --all does. But --modules=all should install all modules and --modules=t-tikz should be sufficient to keep that module. However I don't know what happens if you use --modules=t-somethingelse next time. Maybe that removes the modules that you installed previously as it expects the complete list of modules. I need to check.
