[DISCUSSION] UUP dump - download Windows 10/11 UUPs with ease

Post the conversion progress, so we can check it.

 

Do I need to start from scratch with the uup_download_windows.cmd script or is there an intermediate script I can run and capture the output?

 

You could run convert-UUP.cmd if you kept project files and the UUPs folder.

Also check the amount of available free space on the partition you run the cmd on and the system partition.

TiP!! Never close the cmd before checking the result.

 

The only version in the install.wim is the Home Version. So I'm going to hose the "19041.1.191206-1406.VB_RELEASE_CLIENTCORE_OEMRET_X64FRE_EN-US" folder
and run the "convert-UUP.cmd" script.

 

Please post the content of the convertconfig.ini file too.

 

Hmm. It produced an ISO this time.

All 6 editions are present and 19042.487. But why did it balk on the prior two attempts. Is it possibly that I ended the script prematurely by hitting "0" at the end too soon?

 

Not likely, then it all ran already, but read my tip here:

 

My personal number one reason for that tool failing is still having any Explorer windows open. That somehow f*cks with the image unmounting and can make the tool fail.

 

I left 2 explorer windows open, of course not the mount folder, just 2 unrelated folders and all went well.

Honestly anything and everything f**ks with DISM. It's the most retarded Microsoft tool that just doesn't work when you want to use it not precisely as Microsoft intended (i.e. outside of normal "deployment purposes").
It can be indexing, it can be Windows Defender and it can be DISM itself. It's pretty unpredictable but could (in theory) be solved, though the method would be pretty aggressive, behave like a virus and could lead to "unwanted attention" from other AVs.

IoTEnterprise is there, IoTEnterpriseS ain't.

 

I had posted it isn't there and edited it to it's there, have no clue why, other then the sleeping pill kicking in early But the folder (or explorer) open during progress and causing problems i never experienced.

 

It depends on what things have run earlier in Explorer, sometimes these processes lock important handles. Then, DISM throws a temper tantrum and fails to unmount. It's probably hard to check for and no script does it. Thus, as a safety measure, I close all Explorer windows before starting, so I don't have to babysit the process in case of errors.

On a side note, I tried to find a IoTEnterpriseS download. Unfortunately, all ISO downloads and even the SVFs seem to be very dead. Here's what I searched for:

Code:

en_windows_10_iot_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_4c97c86c.iso                                   723c86444a95fc507ea542f234e05276 225eea895e19bce56d43f00a1df37a93b6793bc9 5fe080484a4b2f0028db9507832af2ea304e10b17c78547fee0f25a14dc1f5ad

Taking advantage that @Enthousiast raised the subject... Just out of curiosity: Would you or anyone know if there is any way to finalize the ISO with the editions in alphabetical order or in original order?
I am new to this stage of obtaining an ISO through UUP Dump.

 

Afaik, only by manually re-exporting the indexes using dism.

 

Yes, I understand. But that should already be in the script. It would be more interesting to change the order in which the commands are processed. We would only have to identify the lines in the script. Maybe @abbodi1406 can give a light on that point.
