Tonight, Windows 11 Pro 26h2 with the November updates is available. Many drivers and programs were updated too.


-Note that this version is based on the official 26H2 release (Pro version)
-Note that this is the classic Pro version (not N).
-This version comprises a slimmed-down boot.wim file. If something is amiss with the installer, try to replace this file with the original.
NEW:
-Note that I created a launcher (a small executable in the startup folder) for fxsound to start minimized (there is no option for fxsound to start minimized otherwise). This launcher is working even if the default partition for this OS is not C: (but in case of updates, fxsound needs to stay in the default installation path for the launcher to work).

Nothing was removed (except onedrive which was uninstalled). The Winsxs folder was left untouched.
Net 11 runtime desktop, Net framework 3.5, VC++ redistributables, and Directx 9 are included.
Only 5,20 Gb

Note that a new version of Office 2007 is available (only 260 Mb).
Every update (SP3 and subsequent updates) was directly slipstreamed in the installer.
The Installer is completely silent.

Note that a new version of Windows 11 will be available next week.
Maybe a few new videos will be available in the best clips topic too. In the meantime, if some users are present on the forum like Vasudev or shadow.97, they can give their feedback or post new content.

In your tests have you been able to install this over an older installation, you was it a clean install? By far the greatest problem I have is that the new version will not install over the older one (the detestable "undoing changes" message). This means I'd have to wipe the drive and do a clean install, which takes days to reinstall apps and settings.

If I'm reinstalling Windows, I always do a clean install. However I've already encountered the "undoing changes" message. If a failed update loop or an "undoing changes" message was triggered by missing or corrupted core operating system files, running sfc /scannow can patch those files.
