Microsoft has never made anything that was "secure" for very long.

If that works, it would seem the best choice.

What language and country did you select? Also, I'm guessing it would only work as a fresh new install, and wouldn't if you tried a repair install keeping all the stuff currently installed ?

Does it still work with TWAIN?

Is it available anywhere other than microsoft store? You never know when they'll break it, then update and there's no way to go back to an earlier version that works right. I do my best to avoid anything that's only available at their store.

I suggest taking an image of your drives, using something like macrium reflect or a similar program. Then you could experiment as much as you like. If something goes sour, just restore your backup images and everything will be as it was.

Uh-oh. I get this: E:\Downloads\DriverPolicy_Check.ps1 : File E:\Downloads\DriverPolicy_Check.ps1 cannot be loaded. The file E:\Downloads\DriverPolicy_Check.ps1 is not digitally signed. You cannot run this script on the current system. I'm not too good with power script, so I probably messed...

Yes. If he follows your advice, it should work. Very important to boot the usb drive in uefi mode, not mbr. I did this a few years ago on a very old Dell machine built in 2012. I did it in stages because I am cautious. First, I used mbr2gpt, but It only worked for me when I did this...

Sounds like it really bombed bad, but hang in there. Maybe version 2 will work better!
