I notice that the new boot.wim not totall solved the $OEM$ folder bug.....
With 25H2 now it right copy only the data inside the $$ but not if a folder is empy (it isn't create) and not copy nothing inside the $1 folder.
Moreover, it continue to create the Windows.old folder.

With 25H2 boot.wim forced with old setup, all work right.

It copies the files in $1 just fine in my testing. It doesn't create an empty folder in the Windows folder, but you can easily do that with SetupComplete.cmd or running a SynchronousCommand in the OOBE phase via an unattend.

what you have inside your $1 folder? only singles files or subfolder with files?
In my case I have a folder named Recovery with inside "autoapply" "customizations" and "OEM" folder.
In addition to not copying the files it does not even execute the xml contained within the autoapply automatically.
but it copy a .lnk file that i have $OEM$\$1\Users\Default\Desktop folder

I use the convenient autoapply function as indicated in point 4

Directly in $1, I have two folders. One has files in it, the other has files and folders.

Code:
> tree /f "D:\Windows ISO Build\$OEM$\$1"

D:\WINDOWS ISO BUILD\$OEM$\$1

│       Eula.txt
│       PsExec.exe
│       PsExec64.exe

Can you try creating a "Recovery" folder like mine and see if the files are copied?

I wouldn't be surprised if that doesn't work. There may be something special about the folder name Recovery, since that comes into play if you don't have a recovery partition.

I'm agree with you but with old Wizard i can create the Recevery folder and empty folder without any problem.
