    Better try 26100, I wouldn't recommend 25398.
    Maybe 25398 Pro version runs well as Ace2 said but I tried 5 different Enterprise isos (one of which was a constructed version) and they all had issues (driver issues, apps lagging and freezing etc.)
    I am tempted to reconstruct Pro version just to test if it works better but I have used Enterprise version for many years and would prefer to stay on Enteprise.
    26100 is fast and works well for me even tho there seems to be some bugs which I was not aware of.

    Yes, it did activate on the image which had been activated with Volume_MAK and IoTEnterpriseSK OEM_DM.

    Let me see how it would go on a new device. (I just changed VMware HWID.)
    --->
    Retail License Agreement (forgot to add CU in advance - installing 268 CU)
    --->
    Windows isn't activated. Activate now.

    Thank you. I'd delete it and Volume_MAK.

    26100 (and anything after 20040) is plenty of problems (problems you notice if you actually use it for more than browsing ticktock)

    25398 is almost perfect, aside the problem with vmware+hyper-v that dont work together in any zinc build, everything works perfectly.

    In short is almost usable as Win 10.

    Then feel free to stick with your opinions based on what you read from random users.

    and use windows server 2022 or 2025 and convert it to a workstation, what do you think?
    In this case I am referring to builds 20348 and 26100 of the server

    He is wrong, because with his theory even a blocked key would work, but they don't.

    P.s looking forward to your result.

    Pro is the best version to build, and stageSxS-principalis method is the best way to build it.

    Aside that there is little point on converting (permanently I mean), like I said there are a lot of "novelties" (regressions) since 26040+

    So, yes 20040 is good, but virtualbox is partly broken there (the fault is on VBX part, but still...), and albeit with my SKUwitch you can overcome the timebomb, the executables are still signed with a certificate that expires after sept 2024, most of the things will work after that data, but say VBOX (again) won't launch at all. and other SW may be affected as well.

    That said it's obvious that everything depends on what you do on your windows

    To MDL Administrator:

    I did not know whether or not the 26100 Volume_MAK is official and tested it. Now deleted. If there is still some left, please delete it for me.

    Sorry about that.

    Yes, first from Sum_Ting_Wong post.

    Then tested for myself,
    by extracting E:\ISO\26100.1.240331-1435.GE_RELEASE_CLIENT_ENTERPRISES_OEM_x64FRE_EN-US.iso\sources\install.wim\2\Windows\System32\config\ folder, then used ProduKey.exe to read key from SOFTWARE file.
