I have been using this tool to do a force upgrade to 22H2 on many of my machines without error until I came to my HTPC build which has an H410 chipset which is a thin itx board by Asus. Mounting and starting the fixed ISO from the tool using the setup it starts and then says" Cannot determine if this machine can run windows server, please close this setup and try again." I tried it with windows defender completely disabled, as well, and I got the same result. Is there a reason some boards will not run the Win server correction? Running unfixed iso just halts on the TPM check. This is an Opencore dual boot machine and it needs secure-boot and TPM off to allow Mac OS to boot properly. Any ideas, other than turning TPM on temporarily in the bios just to do the upgrade?
Already tried this and I enabled TPM as well in bios as the problem with booting opencore is only during installation. It now shows enabled in HWinfo64 and I tried the MS MediaCreation assistant and started the installation but failed to complete it with an unknown error. I was going to try turning on secure-boot but I doubt that will make a difference, something is blocking the update, on this machine. (I believe secure-boot is not necessary to be on for an upgrade) I am stumped other than reinstalling clean, and or trying booting directly from the Windows boot manager and see if that makes a difference.
Are you saying make a rufus bootable with the tpm and secure boot checks removed and then copy the created install from the flash to the drive and then run setup from there?
what actually happens when I apply the fix on a compatible Windows 11 PC? My thought, an ISO with the fix for all PCs. Shouldn't it really be a problem?
I dont think its a deliberate M$ plan to block the upgrade on unsupported machines, BUT what is clear is it NOT UNIVERSAL, but more random on certain settings in ones own machine. Get the combination right, and no 22H2 in Windows Updates, and in my case, no ability to keep settings even from an ISO upgrade. In some machines its all about the language settings and having to revert them to default to get the upgrade (in two of my laptops), BUT as stated earlier Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Update.cmd with even an untouched ISO will allow the upgrade and keep settings and apps.
Win 11 22H2 is released in stages, not everybody will get it offered instantly (on my 100% supported i7 11700 running 22000.1281 it isn't offered on WU either). To get it offered faster this could help: Code: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ WindowsUpdate] "DisableWUfBSafeguards"=dword:00000001 This was on a legacy bios VM 22000.xxx install with the TPM skip script by @AveYo running.
I'm a little late to the party. I downloaded Win_11_Boot_And_Upgrade_FiX_KiT_v2.2.zip but I can't unzip it. I get an Unspecified error. Am I missing a password or something?
