Thank you. It does seem cool but I can’t really keep up. I appreciate the explanation. I really thought it was a fully workable de-bloated win11. Which it is, but I need long term installs. I learned a few things though! So not a waste.

If i could ever figure out how to run a windows app via VM. Seamless mode comes close but not quite enough.

Anyway thanks and I didn’t mean to be negative, just didn’t totally get it.

Neat. I tried this last night on my once top of the line machine (in 2012) because why not…

It didn’t upgrade my win10 install but at least it didn’t delete all my data. Maybe I goofed on that as I was tired.

I used the 23H2 iso but it installed 22H2.

I didn’t use the script, it picked up my existing valid key.

It fails to update. Perhaps that’s the point or bloat would come back?

But if it can’t update then what’s the point?

Again, might be my fault but I’m not really trusting this image yet. Not enough to reinstall and relicense my tools.

I use Linux where I can but I’m bound to some windows-only proprietary software. I do use a stripped down win10 VM for a lot of it but at least it updates.

Will update this comment if i find that I’m at fault.

But coal workers are a bedrock of American ideals! We can’t take their jobs!

Is a /s needed? I don’t know anymore. Do people really enjoy being coal miners and want their children to follow that wonderful career? I can get a yes to that question but only from people who have no idea what that entails.
