    This is not true, these ESD files are same. You just need to install the proper version of Windows 10.

    I made an iso of the esd, did a bootable usb of the iso. Run the setup file on the usb in windows 7 and updated and checked that it was activated. Used the same usb for a clean install, and still activated.

    Has everyone that received the ESD through $Windows.~BT and converted to ISO matched SHA1 of known releases?

    Instead of comparing SHA1 of the ISO files, we should compare the hash of ESD files, because there might a timestamp (or some specific information) inside the iso that we created.

    All homebrew ISOs will have a different hash, no point in matching them

    Ok, now that i've downloaded that BT folder, it has nearly 6.4Gb, when does it starts installing it? Cuz I already had 3 beers while waiting..:aglerks: and for some reason i get failed to install updates in windows update.

    I also have a legit W8.1 client.

    Can you define homebrew in this context?
    Also, why is that true? Aren't all Install.esd the same (for build)?
