Tonight, new videos are available for the users of the forum.


Why Dead Games are Terrifying

This Photo below shows the Luxor Pyramid. If humbert and shadow.97 are looking at this photo, they must be thinking that it was taken in Egypt. It seems there are many hotels to accommodate the tourists, as well as a Disneyland castle around the pyramid. The tomb of Tutankhamun is probably in the vicinity.
Actually, there is no pyramid in Luxor. This photo was taken in Las Vegas.
In this video, an investigation exposes the disturbing timeline of neglect at one of Vegas's most iconic properties, from the 2007 de-theming that stripped 80% of its Egyptian identity to the structural failures discovered in 2010 that were never properly fixed.

Microsoft Windows / Re: Windows 11

For the first point: I meant extracting ISO using WinRAR/7z to a folder/directory with the same name as ISO and you can move/delete unattended file i.e autounattneded.xml to recycle bin to install completely stock ISO (Edge and some pesky UWP apps removed) that will not move start menu to the left, disabling telemetry, no skipping installation steps and device setup etc.

So it's a simple question of removing autounattneded.xml from the ISO? Or is there anything else that needs to be removed?

For the second point: Its for comparison how it differs from stock debloated ISO with start menu placed to left, disabled telemetry, remove copilot and other system apps, disable cloud download while device setup, install netfx3.5,vc++,dx9 redis, brave and irfanview silently post logon. In a VM, you can easily do in-place upgrade or completely wipe the drive.

So just to sum it up: Mounting the ISO and performing an upgrade with setup.exe will work? I ask because other Windows ISO's I've done this don't ask for an activation code or anything like that.

Let me know and I'll give this a shot on the VM and let's see what happens.

BTW I'm not too concerned with all that garbage they put. I use a goodie call Windows10Privacy that gets rid of all that crap. Hibit Uninstaller is also excellent for removing unwanted garbage apps.

How you can type all this using your phone is beyond my comprehension

Yeah you can use poweriso or 7zip or winrar to use.
I would suggest installing stock Microsoft ISO in a vm. Afterwards, mount my ISO and make in place upgrade with unattended file to get a hang of the process.
For windows 11 i use show all tray icons send other tweaks

Pardon me but this gets more confusing my the minute. Let's go step by step.

1) You told me to use one of the apps mentioned above to remove some files from the ISO. I understand this to mean that the ISO will NOT upgrade the existing copy of Windows unless some files are removed first. Is this correct? If so, and just to avoid confusion, tell me once again which files need to be removed.

2) You asked me to install a stock ISO in a VM and then try to upgrade it. Does this mean you're not sure whether or not the mounted ISO's setup program will upgrade an existing installation? Even if that were the case, logic dictates I already have a backup of current copy in case everything goes south. Why did you recommend this?

I think I ate some sentences while typing on the phone.

I did use the same process to make in-place of windows 11 March edition.
Alternatively, you can extract the ISO and remove the unattended xml file and run setup as usual to migrate to new build.

Let me see if I understand you correctly. As I explained, what I'm trying to do is simply upgrade my copy of 24H2 with your 25H2. You're saying that in order to do that, I have to use [for example] PowerISO to open up your ISO and remove all the xml files? Simply attempting the upgrade by mounting that drive and clicking setup.exe will overwrite my current configuration and install Windows from scratch?

Please clarify this for me. I'm totally confused.

It's due to unattended file that automates most of the settings and tweaks.
It is advised to take a macrium reflect full backup and run setup and install on existing C drive which will migrate to new image with windows.old folder and there's no edge and other things on the ISO. I found that removing unattended file will reinstall missing apps and enable all telemetry settings.

I already made a backup with Macrium. The question now becomes: will this copy of Windows install over the existing one and retain all files and settings? If all it does is erase what you have and install a fresh copy, I can't use it. Please let me know so I can attempt the upgrade.

It removed 2GB from 7GB stock ISO for all 11 editions while exporting to Home and Pro reduces the size to sub 5GB and ESD can bring it to 4.6GB. If you are not skipping Edge and Webview while applying CU through W10UI the size will increase dramatically and at this point I'd recommend running the script once update integration is completed.
The hidden dism command doesn't cleanup SxS files which could cleanup by another 500-800MB but breaks Edge and webview reinstall if someone needs it.

I mounted the ISO and tried to use this to simply upgrade (or reinstall) Windows on the lapi. It seems as if the setup program is geared for a new clean installation as opposed to an upgrade. It asks for a product key (my installation already has one), then it asks what partition to install into. Unless I didn't go very far, it did not even ask if I want to keep files or do a new installation.

Is it possible to simply upgrade (or reinstall) Windows with this ISO while keeping all files and settings?
