    Just FYI, as you're linking to it, the bedi script is not available, the download's just dead.

    Q: How to judge whether or not your reconstructed image is fine?
    A: Test "Windows Update". And "Optional Features" - FoD.

    I understand, thank you very much! The reason why I am so keen on this “G” edition is because the developers have removed all the junk that we are all struggling with from the image.

    Perhaps it's not worth it, and it would be easier to “clean” the same IoT LTSC of all the “junk”, perhaps. But in Windows, everything is so intertwined and confusing that I suspect you can't do without a deep knowledge of the system kernel itself. Perhaps I'm exaggerating a little and it's not as complicated as I think. But be that as it may, my idea of turning the “G” edition into a full-fledged IoT LTSC has not worked out for me yet.

    So, it seems that my issue is not with the “G” version at all, but with my strong desire to get the 25H2 IoT Enterprise LTSC version completely cleaned of all the crap that MS so diligently stuffed into it. But at the same time, I want this “cleaning” of the image not to interfere with the functionality of the system itself. I set myself this task, and I will try to solve it...

    What to do next?

    The most vNext Previews cannot "reconstruct" unofficial Editions. e.g. EnterpriseG, EnterpriseS. The modified Edition cat won't be accepted.

    The only way to mislead it is:
    1. Install Target packages.
    2. Modify Edition cat and mum and copy them to Windows\Servicing\Packages.
    3. Add Microsoft-Windows-EnterpriseG to registry, and set it as "1" - "active".
    4. Set Pro as "0" - "inactive".
    5. Stage or Install EnterpriseG and remove Pro.

    Where to get 19041.1 now? I tied it to get from UUP DUMP, script generates error "EMPTY_FILELIST". I suppose that MS removed it from their sites. No Win11 for me as lon as I can. Can you help me?

    It depends on your purpose.

    [Reconstruction]
    If for Source image, yes, you download full install.wim.
    If for required Target source only, just download packages which are different to Source image.

    1 to another 1. (Refurbishing an old house)

    [Construction]
    You download everything required for the Target image.

    0 to 1. (Building a new house)
