    Totally agree!
    Yea most people rarely using any spoilers. Making threads.epical long etc.
    Some of stuff that could be much better organized in the forum here in general....

    Spoilers are very good but:
    • the first post is too long
    • the download links should be at the very beginning
    • too many screenshots - e.g. OOBE in the How looks deploying process? section

    I just tested method to be able to use OOBE in offline mode. Seem to work fine on 11/10/8. I will perform more tests, but looks fine. I just installed Windows 11 with MBR disk settings to 2024 laptop using my new POWIS without any issues.
    At the end of RunOnceEx (even you check no RunOnceEx) is disabled network access and after OOBE again using RunOnceEx is re-enabled.

    @George King When the whole thing is done, like 1.7 released:
    What exactly ISOs (name and hash) will be need to create whole maximal featured ("freestyle" = TPC + MCE, VL?) and updated disk (with .wims) ?
    So Win11 as base will be supported? OnePieceAIO, but also "SP4" ?

    UEFI class 3 machine does not have CSM mode so you can't install a 32-bit WinXP. You can only install a 64-bit WinXP - try my guide.

    Will this work with Windows Home Server?

    Windows 11 base wouldn't make that much sense (especially if your install.wim file does not have any x64 images). Because Windows 11 does not have any x86 images available. It's WinPE only with probably no setup files. But that's your idea anyways.

    I'm not sure what you mean. The script supports Windows XP Professional SP2 64bit, right?
    With 11 Boot-Base it would be possible then to install 11 and XP from same media source.

    Have you considered not asking the same question, at the very least not twice in the same page? GK is mostly working alone on this entire project afaik, with a little help here and there from other people. It's not like you have an entire Microsoft division hard at work ironing small bugs out before a major release and a full time company representative giving you deadlines.
    It will be ready when it's ready.

    @shhnedo Oh, I don't know man. To answer the few questions needs lesser than a minute.
    Sorry, I was not aware that he is so busy for weeks not able to spend that one minute quick.
    Thought he could since he answered another question related to supported versions same page.

    While this also not got answered.

    So since I don't know what ISOs, Packs and Customizer are needed and supported, I deleted all.
    Will ask then next year again, that seems a good frequency for asking about progress, you agree on that?
