Sorry. I understand now, I wasn't familiar with the tool. Just select example 2 and the asterisk moves by itself, then press “0”. So in my case, to prevent the Windows Server message from appearing, I have to select 2 and 3 (AIO 2a\2b)? Thank you.
After reading the notes and to be on the safe side, is it perhaps better to leave only option [1] AIO 1, even though the words “Windows Server” appear? Thank you.
Use only option 1 OR option 2a. NOT 2b, unless you want to prepare the CURRENT OS for upgrading. Option 2a will copy the necessary preparation script to the ISO, too, for execution prior to setup.exe, in order to prepare that system. Whew, long sentence.
Enthousiast: Just for your information: I deployed Win_11_Boot_And_Upgrade_Fix_Kit_v6.1f2.cmd (option #1 with default extras) after placing a newly downloaded 7.20 GB size "Win11_25H2_English_x64.iso" ISO inside the Source_ISO folder. The conversion process went very quick and a slightly smaller 7.18 GB size ISO was created in less than 2 minutes. A bootable install disc was created and a clean install of Windows 11 Pro Version 25H2 Build 26200.6899 was done in my 7th generation Dell Precision Tower 3620. The install and setup process went fine without any problems.
No. Some Registry Voodoo, mainly. Option 1 works as-is, but uses (and displays) Server as disguise, as Server does not check for the requirements. Wrong display is only until the first reboot. Option 2a uses a different method, you first run the special script copied to the ISO, and then setup.exe. Option 2b is a quick fix if you want to upgrade your current OS to 11 and the PC does not meet the requirements.
Excuse my ignorance. I'm looking for a tool that allows me to upgrade my Windows 10 Pro to Windows 11 while keeping my installed programs.
If your PC meets the requirements, Windows Update can do this for you. Otherwise, create a windows 11 iso; a in-place upgrade keeps your programs.and parameters. Be sure to apply the latest windows 10 updates before upgrading.
mmmm.. ok... but I have most likely also misunderstood the true purpose of this tool. I have already download the iso from microsoft site and fixed with this tool. Create a Bootable USB pendrive and i have already use that for another clean install without any issue. in my case i need to made a in-place upgrade from windows 10 to a neweset windows 11 24H2. Probably right now i can only copy all pendrive content on a drive... example C:\Win1124H2\ and run "setup.exe /product server" to made a in-place update. Problably this is also no correct thread to speak about that but i need to explain the situation... Thanks and sorry for previusly stupid question. +++edit+++ or also this tools have a recent positive feedback: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/th...-fix-tool-very-beta.88518/page-5#post-1893606 Tomorrow i can try also on this my friends pc.
After fixing the ISO with option 1 of the tool of this thread, disconnect from internet and you can simply mount the ISO in explorer and run setup.exe. When you have used option 2a you to run option 2b first on the install you want to upgrade and then you can simply run setup.exe. This IS option 1 of this tool plus the ei.cfg. the compatible appraiserres.dll and the config file for server for certain upgrade scenarios. For all this is no bootable iso necessary.
Ah ok.... So I already have the ISO fixed with option 1 in the pendrive (but i have deleted the ISO and if need i need to redownload). I have already use the same pendrive to made a clean install in another pc. So in this case i thinks i can simply connect the pendrive (or copy content in a folder), disconnect internet (better if i disable the LAN adapter directly) and run directly setup.exe from that. Or i can reapply (using the source microsoft iso) , in order, 2b and then 2a and i can simply setup.exe also with online pc....
It doesn't matter where the fixed iso (option 1) or its content is stored, if you already extracted the fixed ISO to wherever on any drive you can use it for inplace upgrades (mounted/extracted, both work), as long as the system to upgrade is not connected during setup stage, so no files will be replaced by incompitable ones.
First of all, thank you for your work! I often get the error unsupported iso. But I haven't figured out what that is yet. can someone help me?
Problably stupid question... for create a bootable usb with a fixed iso instead rufus (that applies its fixes already applied from this script) how i can use ?
Again, i don't support rufus. Just create a bootable USB and don't use other tools or bypas settings mixed with this one.
