    No, my own HYPER-V VM secret KMS server @home (created with slave77s S-M-R-T JATDevice) for personal use and friends.

    Why do you preferr to run a virtual kms server instead of kmspico or microsoft toolkit's ez activator (which emulate a kms server on the local machine)?

    No local virus/malware-scanner can produce a false alert.
    You have no extra software on client.
    You don't have to use workarounds for 127.0.0.1 restriction.

    He is using it, but on VM. (He has his own favourite.)

    He sent me an extensive motivation via pm.

    I only asked why he preferred it over a local kms emulator, nothing more, nothing less :)

    For me the use of it for his friends' systems whas an interesting use of a vm kms server (i'm going to try it out, in the past it whas a 1.5GB vm install so i didn't bother).

    Maybe they liked the 586 (aka Pentium).

    Here, the procedure for converting an unencrypted esd file in an iso image using only Windows ADK 10:

    Code:
    1) md "<Windows_Files_Path>"
    2) md "<iso_Path>"
    3) md "<esd_File_Path>"
    4) move "<esd_File_Name>.esd" "<esd_File_Path>\"
    5) dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd"
    6) dism /Apply-Image /ImageFile:"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd" /Index:1 /ApplyDir:"<Windows_Files_Path>" /CheckIntegrity
    7) dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile
    :"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd" /SourceIndex
    :2 /DestinationImageFile
    :"<Windows_Files_Path>\sources\boot.wim" /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
    8) dism /Export-image /SourceImageFile:"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd" /SourceIndex:3 /DestinationImageFile:"<Windows_Files_Path>\sources\boot.wim" /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
    9) dism /Export-image /SourceImageFile:"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd" /SourceIndex:4 /DestinationImageFile:"<Windows_Files_Path>\sources\install.wim" /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity
    or
    10) dism /Export-image /SourceImageFile:"<esd_File_Path>\<esd_File_Name>.esd" /SourceIndex:4 /DestinationImageFile:"<Windows_Files_Path>\sources\install.esd" /Compress:Recovery /CheckIntegrity
    11) oscdimg -o -u2 -udfver102 -l"<Label_Name>" -tmm/dd/yyyy,hh:mm:ss -bootdata:2#p0,e,b"<Windows_Files_Path>\boot\etfsboot.com"#pEF,e,b"<Windows_Files_Path>\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin"
                "<Windows_Files_Path>" "<iso_Path>\<iso_Name>.iso"
    12) isoburn /Q <Drive_Letter>: "<iso_Path>\<iso_Name>.iso"

    I have Windows 10.

    When I download a new build from Windows Update, Windows download an ESD encrypted file, it decrypts, it saves in the <Primary_partition_letter>:\$Windows.~BT\sources\install.esd file and then it goes automatically to its installation.

    How do I prevent this automatic installation leaving however the <Primary_partition_letter>:\$Windows.~BT\sources\install.esd decrypted file?

    Thanks

    Bye

    Why should I add this option because the "Microsoft Windows Setup" volume image contains no boot code?

    Thanks

    I am no coder or programmer but shouldn't the boot.wim be bootable? Please correct me if i'm wrong, just learning. :)

    Wait, isn't this new? There are 'Multi' (I presume Core + Pro) ESDs.
