    I have issues with alot of app after using system restore, try running re register for your account only, using all users breaks things, the OS creates them when you add new user so theres no need. If you have other users run it separate
    Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
    For best results, enable admin , delete corrupted user and create a new one
    You can re add windows apps as new, if you have documents/pics/vids/music, copy them into corresponding folders in admin and paste them back to new user
    prgramdata.programfiles.programfiles86 are un affected
    But you might loose a few shortcuts if they residing in deleted user.

    Thank you for the tips, I am sure that can be helpful.

    Unfortunately, System Restore has always been hit or miss, since the early days when it was first introduced on Windows XP. I would recommend that before making any major system changes to use a program that actually creates a full image backup. This method is much more reliable. I cannot tell you how many systems I have seen get hosed either because of a change, or because of system restore.

    Hello,
    Any idea about these?

    I even see this on a clean install of build 22622.601 and some prior releases.
    Windows Update works though.

    System restore was introduced in Windows Millennium (but found its way to NT OSes only in XP)

    Good to know, I used Windows 2000 back then, never used ME.

    I'm running 11 on "unsupported hardware" and still haven't got the feature update, should I just wait or update with an ISO?

    It's rolling out in waves, when you really want it you can use UpgradeAssistant/MCT/ISO or any other working method.

    Thanks for the quick reply, is it possible to bypass the requirements with the installation assistant?

    The good old "backup & restore (windows 7)" (copias de seguridad y restauracion, in spanish) still working fine, no need extra programs.

    The tpm skip script enables you to use any source for upgrade you want.

    I solved that issue by reverting to the earlier winver v598 by system restore, then installed the KB5017384 [22622.601.1.1] again
    & this time, no error whatsoever, don't know what went wrong last time but now, the system is running fine.

    Thanks for the responses.

    I have a strange scenario that maybe one of you geniuses can explain...

    1. I exported all of the editions of 22H2 into a single WIM file (Home, Pro, Edu, Pro Edu, Pro WS, Ent, IoT)
    2. I created an EI.CFG file so that setup would allow for the selection of the edition during setup.

    This is how I've always made the AIO installers going all the way back to Vista days. However, something weird is happening with IoT 22H2. When you select that image in the WIM, the final installation reverts to Professional Edition. This did not happen with 21H2.

    I checked that the image extracted by setup to the C drive is the correct edition (checking the registry shows "IoTEnterprise"). However, once it reboots and completes setup, the edition is Pro when you get to the OOBE welcome screen.

    Any ideas why IoT is converted to Pro?

    Do you use an activator?

    No activators. Everything is stock, original.

    I think I may have a theory: Since IoT is OEM only, I've read that OEM editions behave differently. Does IoT look for an embedded MSDM key in the BIOS of the machine and if it sees one does it revert to that edition?

    I'm going to test by installing on an old motherboard that doesn't have a built-in MSDM key/table.

    All look for an embedded key, but the ei.cfg (a proper one) should skip that, i am running a test myself.

    Here's my EI.cfg file:

    Code:
    [Channel]
    volume
    
    [VL]
    1
    I've also tried changing channel to OEM and VL to 0, but IoT still gets converted to Pro.
