    While updating the tool on my PC, I noticed the tool package still includes an old version of wimlib-imagex (1.13.1) from 2019. Latest is 1.13.3 from late 2020.

    Edit: Only the 32bit version is old, 64bit is OK.

    Hey, I just want to say "thanks" for making this. Without it, we would still be stuck on Windows 10. And I also have some issues:
    Last night, I used your tool with a Win10 Enterprise x64 .iso file and a Win7 Ultimate x64 .iso file (and updated the Update7R2 and SmartFix files), but silly me didn't bother to use a virtual machine to test everything, and now I've installed Home Basic N, when I wanted something else.

    Later, I've downloaded the recent version of this tool, and this time, I've used two different source .iso files: en_windows_7_enterprise_with_sp1_x64_dvd_u_677651.iso and en_windows_10_enterprise_ltsc_2019_x64_dvd_5795bb03.iso
    Then I've clicked on the W7_x64_Single_Index_Only_New_2.3.cmd file, selected "Enterprise", integrated both DaRT and SmartFix in the .iso file, then integrate the drivers into both the Install.wim and WinRE files, and finally selected the standard installation.

    After the process was completed, I've used the "Rufus" software to copy my Win_7_Enterprise_x64_SiMPLiXED_en-US_SiMPLiXED.iso into my 16GB USB drive. When I restarted my computer, I've selected my USB drive to boot up on, and yet my computer booted up to my primary drive instead.

    Another thing is that, even if I had went to my USB drive and clicked on the setup.exe in the "sources" folder, Windows will display an error: "Windows could not load required file WinSetup.dll. The file may be
    corrupt. To install Windows, restart the installation. Error code: 0x7E
    "

    I'm sorry if there was any unnecessary details, but I don't know what I did wrong. I installed ADK from the 19041 ADK .iso file, but that's pretty much it. I really don't want to stick with Home Basic N and only use eight of my 16 gigs of RAM. Please help!
