D.Draker Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 (edited) Oh thanks , I assumed it's supported on XP only. EDIT : Maybe a good idea to add to the name "Vista and XP supported"? Edited May 9, 2022 by D.Draker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudolf.horak Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 How do you unlink the source? It won't let me remove or place a dummy location where my win 2k install files are. Now everytime I turn the pc on it tries to install the files. How do you remove that? What is used to point it to the installation files. I need it to just try to load the operating system that has already been installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFX Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Hmm, I'm not so sure I know what you mean. I guess you now have 2 option in boot menu - your old installation and the new one that is ready to setup? What the system you wanted to installed a NT6.x one (Win Vista - Win11) or NT5 one?

bkhvm Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 When will WinNTSetup be available for 32 bit systems ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFX Posted May 15, 2022 Author Share Posted May 15, 2022 So, I renamed WinNTSetup_v425_WinXP_Supported.rar to WinNTSetup_v425_Legacy_Supports_32-64Bit_Win_XP_Vista_7_8.x_10.rar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amirbahalegharn Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 thanks for all your efforts and giving users such wonderful & rich feature software my question is: do you think there is a way to use Winntsetup on Macbooks (via wine-crossover or anything else) to install "backed up ESD/Wim" file so that we can install "preinstalled windows" without the configuations&options of ISO installation and use of bootcamp there? Thanks in advance. any insight in bringing the ease & quickness of installation via Winntsetup to iOS/Mac worlds is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFX Posted May 25, 2022 Author Share Posted May 25, 2022 Sorry, last time I used a MAC, was over 2 decades ago, so I don't think there will be any development in this direction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari800XL Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi JFX, how are you doing!? Have you heard about the new (?) Microsoft Validation OS? Overview Microsoft Validation OS is a lightweight, fast, and customizable Windows 11-based operating system that you can use on the factory floor to diagnose, mitigate and repair hardware defects during Windows device manufacturing. Validation OS boots into a Command Line environment to increase reliability on the factory floor and supports running Win32 apps, smoothing the transition from early hardware bring-up to retail OS and apps development. https://software-static.download.prss.microsoft.com/dbazure/888969d5-f34g-4e03-ac9d-1f9786c66749/22621.1.220506-1250.ni_release_amd64fre_en-us_VALIDATIONOS.iso What is your opinion on this? For example, what the heck is it anyway? :-) A bit more info can be found on a different forum: https://forums.mydigitallife.net/threads/discussion-microsoft-validation-os.85484/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFX Posted June 20, 2022 Author Share Posted June 20, 2022 Hi Atari800XL, I don't know why Microsoft releases this Validation OS. Seems to be a very bare bone version of windows. It's not a WinPE, but seems to have far less features. So I failing to see the point of it. Why would anyone use this instead of a normal boot.wim or ADK WinPE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 From what I have seen, besides the MS fanfare, the best definition so far is by Vinifera here: https://msfn.org/board/topic/183672-windows-11-validation-os-first-impressions/ if even diskpart doesn't run in it, I wonder what the highly specialized technicians on the factory floor would use it for. Maybe it is just an early/preliminary release and the good MS guys will fix it in the future, but personally I am not holding my breath waiting for that. jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamisr Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Hi JFX, do you intend to create any in-app workarounds for it to remove MIcrosft's new option to install only with online account? Microsoft made internet connectivity and Microsoft Account (MSA) mandatory for installing Windows 11 22H2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFX Posted June 27, 2022 Author Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) No, just use the unattend option. Win7-11-Select.xml will let you skip all question during setup, including online account creation. Edited June 27, 2022 by JFX 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
