    Ogh, so that was you, who modified license for 15063?
    I just read that you challenged zwl29107 to do multi-language license file for G and there was something about RSA hash that might remain same, - seemed impossible for me.
    My deep respects if you can do such things, I have no knowledge even close to it.

    Wouldn't you help me with making
    "Kernel-MUI-Language-Allowed">EMPTY</sl:policyStr> or adding ru-RU to the list?

    I would rename the provided modified license package to 26100.9999 and install it
    I would reinstall original (not modified) 26100.1 after.
    System would choose 26100.9999
    When an update to license is released, like with 26100.863, it would install unmodified version, but system would continue using 26100.9999
    Isn't that how SXS works?

    A1: I did not modify License.
    A2: I did not challenge zwl29107. And RSA has nothing to do with me.
    A3: I am not able to do such things.

    Please watch your language.

    Why not just build 26100.1 Core to Starter with zwl29107:

    26100 Edition Package.7z
    +
    Microsoft-Windows-Client-LanguagePack-Package-amd64-en-us.esd
    26100.1.240331-1435.GE_RELEASE_CLIENTCORE_OEMRET_X64FRE_EN-US.ISO\install.wim

    after all updates don't work, for most builds anyway...

    How to use 26100 Edition Package.7z? There is no update.mum or xml in it. It looks very small for to add any edition to install.wim.

    Are you saying that the Starter edition can be rebuilt in Windows 11 24h2 (26100)?

    For now I just want to get a Starter edition of either Windows 10 or 11 (which I doubt 11 is really possible)

    here thanks to xinso it mentions that 14393 is compatible, now with you 19041.1 is also compatible but for now I think the easiest thing will be with starter in 14393.0 since at least I have these sxs.

    What is the purpose of
    <package action="stage"> at first 1. xml? If you do not remove core edition can be a problem?

    stage is to stop some Windows Defender files from being removed.

    If you do not remove core edition there will be no problem.
