    Is this safe for official release:

    PSFXVersion="2" PSFXDeltaFormat="ForwardOnly"
    Code:
        <mum2:customInformation Version="10.0.22000.194" xmlns:mum2="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3" PackageFormat="PSFX" PSFXVersion="2" PSFXDeltaFormat="ForwardOnly" />

    Nevermind the spoiler. I found out that I can also do the same thing with Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. Just the folder location is different.
    (Drive Letter):\Windows\system32\licensing\skus

    Now that there is not initial 19041.1 LTSC packages which are needed for a reconstruction accepted by original LCU.

    Q: How to do 19044 LTSC "Update Build Reconstruction" which is fully functional although not accepted by original LCU because of not being reconstructed in Microsoft way?

    When the system is working fine for your routing work, keep it as is.
    When you want to update it, remake one with a targeted LCU, and upgrade, or reinstall.
    Another way using Windows.

    What if after reconstructing Pro to EnterpriseEval we use the Enterprise sku and packages to convert EnterpriseEval to Enterprise?

    Thanks for any of your words my friend, however late...
    But you're wrong in your full sentence because I'm not a toy, nor a horse, I'm just a guy who wants to learn...

    Fact:
    While reconstruction, we run this command to register C:\Windows\%SKU%.xml. e.g.
    Code:
    dism /english /scratchdir:temp /image:D:\MOUNT /apply-unattend:D:\MOUNT\Windows\EnterpriseS.xml
    
    Q: Is the 17763.1 %SKU%.xml compatible with 19041.1?
    A: No. We have to register 19041.1 one on 19041 system.
