FlyOobe / Flyby11

Flyoobe 1.31.531​

• Bypasses TPM requirement
• Bypasses Secure Boot requirement
• Bypasses unsupported CPU checks
• Bypasses minimum RAM requirement
• Removes other Windows 11 setup restrictions
• Works with Windows 11 version 24H2
• Lightweight and portable tool
• No installation required
• Simple interface and usage

• The OOBE installer has been improved and expanded. It’s now possible to manually search and install app packages directly from the Winget manifest using the new “Install custom Winget package” option. The feature is a bit more barebones than UnigetUI, but intentionally lightweight to keep Flyoobe fast and efficient as it covers everything essential.
• Leveled up the Apps OOBE page (Debloater) and upgraded both the backend and UI for easier navigation, lightning-fast app removal, and smarter batch operations
• The navigation system introduced in version 1.30 has been refined, especially the way menus expand, collapse, and guide the user through the interface.
• The OOBE “Personalization” page has been visually polished for a cleaner and more consistent look.
• A new log and activity manager has been added, accessible from the “More (⋯)” menu in the top-right corner. It allows you to monitor all Flyoobe operations and notifications in one place. Next to it, the Settings and About App buttons are now separated into their own dedicated menus
• Cleaned up the Experience OOBE page and removed the "Issues" section, since it's now partially covered by the Extensions and Installer OOBE
• The predecessor Flyby11, on which this app was originally based a few versions ago, is no longer being promoted here.
• Everything Flyby11 could do is now fully integrated into Flyoobe, which I highly recommend switching to as its far more stable during the upgrade process. The Flyby11.exe still exists within Flyoobe as a native helper and background process.
• However, if you prefer the slightly lighter version of Flyby11 (with fewer options), you can still find it in the previous FlyOOBE releases
• Minor fixes and improvements

Flyoobe 1.40.564​

What’s new in 1.40​

• Completely reimagined the UpgradeOOBE / Flyby11 process (the Upgrade in FlyOOBE step) and expanded it with AutoPilot features.
  You can now either perform the upgrade manually in three simple steps (choose download source, import ISO, set advanced options) or just hit the new AutoPilot button, which guides you through the entire upgrade automatically. One click, one smooth upgrade. It's never been easier.
• The app name is now officially written as FlyOOBE for better clarity and trust
  Writing OOBE (Out-of-Box Experience) in uppercase makes the acronym instantly recognizable.
  "Fly" + "OOBE" looks balanced and professional, while Flyoobe tended to blur visually.
  With the capitalized version, more people naturally read it as "fly-oo-bee" and not flaiohb? The app binary now ships as FlyOOBE instead of Flyo.exe “You can spell the name freely. For marketing and external use we stick to FlyOOBE (OOBE in caps) to make the Out-of-Box Experience explicit
• Winpilot is becoming part of FlyOOBE. I'm merging Winpilot into FlyOOBE as a native module and will keep iterating on it. Going forward, Winpilot will live as an integrated FlyOOBE module and continue to evolve.
  In short: FlyOOBE is Winpilot. Winpilot is FlyOOBE. Note: Windows Autopilot = Microsoft thing, not mine

FlyOOBE 1.41​

What’s new in 1.41​

• Previously, the upgrade process (Flyby11) only worked on CPUs that passed the compatibility check. You can now delete CpuCheckNative.dll from the app folder to skip the CPU check - proceed at your own risk. The CPU check is always performed by FlyOOBE during the upgrade, but there are cases where skipping it is also supported.
• The update check has been completely redesigned and moved to GitHub Pages. This setup will also allow to offer helpful guides and additional documentation there in the future
• Fixed an issue where the Installer OOBE Page didn’t properly update the progress bar during app installation
• Fixed a bug where the Apps OOBE Page (Debloater) didn’t correctly reflect progress while uninstalling apps
• Several input dialog windows have been redesigned and improved-
• Updated Bloatware and installer signatures
• Minot fixes and improvements

FlyOOBE 1.42​

What's new in 1.42​

• Split the upgrade tool out
  
  • FlyOOBE was tightly coupled with the upgrade/bypass tool Flyby11 (aka UpgradeOOBE). I’ve completely detached UpgradeOOBE (the Windows 10 → 11 migration assistant) from FlyOOBE
  • FlyOOBE now focuses 100% on customizing Windows 11
  • UpgradeOOBE (Flyby11) focuses only on upgrading to Windows 11 and runs as a standalone app
  • Safety-first separation: Due to false positives from security tools, this split was the obvious next step. If Microsoft or other AV solutions ever flag something again, only UpgradeOOBE can be affected. FlyOOBE will remain untouched. Currently there are no detections and FlyOOBE is not classified as harmful or a hack tool.
• Community input
  
  • I’m running a poll about FlyOOBE’s future design direction.
  • Even though WinUI + Windows App SDK would blow up the app size (a WinUI build would be ~333× larger than the current WinForms app), I'll keep the poll open and continue iterating on the current version.
• Modernization & polish
  
  • The current release got a UI refresh and new features
  • You can now pick a background image (see intro video)
  • Brand-new App Settings view
  • Improved update process
  • Reinstall OOBE page renamed to Advanced
  • Menu reorganized and simplified
• UpgradeOOBE (Flyby11) specifics
  
  • Fully standalone, does not require FlyOOBE (and vice versa)
  • Depends only on CpuCheckNative.dll, which can be removed to allow upgrade attempts on unsupported CPUs (SSE4.2 still required in practice)
• Under the hood
  
  • Large-scale code refactors
  • Prep work for more extensive OOBE pages
  • UI and navigation tweaks to make things cleaner and more intuitive
• Future considerations
  
  • Possible FlyOOBE Lite edition that ships without the Extensions/Scripts folder by default — PowerShell scripts are commonly abused by fileless malware, so a light build could be safer for some users.
  • Potential option to download official scripts on demand from GitHub (like a mini store), rather than bundling them.

FlyOOBE 1.50​

What's new in 1.50​

• Background rendering rework: The background selection feature introduced in the previous version has been reworked for better performance and stability.
  You can now select a background style via Settings > Pick background
  The old image-based handler was replaced with an internal gradient-based renderer.
  This removes issues with locked image files, unreleased GDI objects, and redundant event handlers.
  The update significantly reduces memory usage and improves rendering speed and overall UI responsiveness
• Added support for script-driven input fields for the Extensions engine via # Input: true and # InputPlaceholder: Uses positional args for maximum compatibility, with optional console / silent / log host modes, status + progress, and a clean placeholder UX.
• New Extension script: ViVeTool Bridge
  Wrapper to enable/disable/query hidden Windows features by ID. Supports comma-separated ID lists
• New Extension script: Ninite Bulk Installer
  Builds the Ninite bundle URL from app slugs/names, downloads to Desktop (predictable filename), and launches Installer
• New Extension script: Winget Bulk Installer
  Quickly installs multiple packages in one run (IDs separated by space/comma/newline)
• Online Update Checker redesigned in full retro style, think Windows 2000 meets GameBoy

FlyOOBE (ex-Flyby11) 1.51​

What's new in 1.51​

• The extensions system has been improved again. The PowerShell-based engine has been expanded, and Flyby11 (UpgradeOOBE.exe) is now included as a native extension within FlyOOBE. On Windows 10 systems, a dedicated upgrade tile will appear on the home dashboard, allowing users to launch the Windows 11 upgrade workflow directly, with help instructions included
• Extensions now also display their author or source, such as Flyby11 by Belim or the ViVeTool-bridge by Albacore. This adds transparency and helps users understand where each tool originates from. This feature will be expanded further in future updates, and developers who wish to share their own scripts or tools will be able to integrate them into FlyOOBE more easily.
• Updated Extensions docs
• This update improves FlyOOBE’s behavior on some high-resolution displays. Several UI scaling issues on 4K screens and Windows scaling levels above 200% have been fixed. Elements such as tiles, layout spacing, and navigation now scale consistently and no longer overlap.

• Modernized and simplified Interface: cleaner, more focused, and less overwhelming, making the initial setup much easier for new and casual users
• Improved perfomance: The app is faster and more responsive, with reduced loading times and better resource management
• Extensions engine completely reworked under the hood, now using a new internal filtering system with a category dropdown.
• A brand-new app icon finally featuring a smart, friendly little bee inside (I might've cheated a bit and let AI help with that one )
• Improved global search and refresh behavior for smoother control updates across views
• New centralized Home dashboard that intelligently categorizes and recommends OOBE setup pages and extensions. Many items are now discoverable via keyword tags. (The first experimental Copilot integration has been temporarily removed while refined.)
• Large-scale refactoring and transition to primarily asynchronous processing. Search, filtering, and loading operations no longer cause UI hangs
• New back navigation system with a full stack-based history, allowing you to rewind through previous pages just like in a browser
• Extensions shipped with the app can now also be uninstalled just like user-added ones
• New native activity monitor logs system actions in real time and can provide contextual help for extensions (when supported).
• Improved UI scaling and clarity on high-DPI displays
• New indexing system for all OOBE pages and extensions based on metadata, allowing tools like Flyby11 to be found using simple keywords such as ESU, 10, or 11
• New modern Copilot-inspired designs can now be found in the settings menu
• Extensions.md has been updated accordingly
• Dozens of Minor Fixes and Quality Improvements

FlyOOBE 2.1.790​

• Bypasses TPM requirement
• Bypasses Secure Boot requirement
• Bypasses unsupported CPU checks
• Bypasses minimum RAM requirement
• Removes other Windows 11 setup restrictions
• Works with Windows 11 version 24H2
• Lightweight and portable tool
• No installation required
• Simple interface and usage

• The UI introduced back in version 2.0 has now been fully finalized and cleaned up once more. The main form hasn’t looked this polished in a long time. You can now seamlessly switch between the OOBE and Extensions. Going forward, the focus will shift even more toward Extensions, so a clean UI arrives at just the right time.

• Several debloating/cleanup modules have been bumped to a higher tier and now dig up even more (and even deeper) AI-infused junk. Still no AgenticOS takeover in sight- but with Microsoft’s latest moves… let’s just say: enjoy the peace while it lasts
• Memory usage reduced even further
• Fixed various DPI-related issues
• Optimized extension loading
• Extensive code refactoring
• The full source code for v2 will be pushed soon

The hardware seems to be working just fine. I can get into the setup in order to select the boot order, etc. The computer just can't find any operating system on any of the drives I try to boot from - it's behaving like FlyOOBE deleted the partitions off the C: drive.

FlyOOBE 2.2.812​

• Polished the action buttons with a modern compact mode: show icon + label by default, then switch to a sleek icon-only look while active (just like native Windows 11 apps)
• Further sped up app startup and trimmed memory usage, not that it was ever a bloated XAML/WinUI monster like the Windows 11 Start menu or Explorer… but hey, every millisecond counts (yes, Im currently at war with Microsofts performance choices. Maybe one day theyll fix real performance issues instead of adding another glowing Copilot button. And honestly, it hurts watching an OS you once loved slowly being run into the ground by the wrong priorities and decisions; lets see how long it takes until they manage to chase me away to another shore as well)
• Flyby11 is back in its classic outfit inside FlyOOBE: the UpgradeOOBE (Flyby11) UI has been simplified and brought closer to the original look, while the built-in Autopilot has been upgraded to guide you more autonomously through the Windows 11 installation
  Note: The ConsumerESU script from https://github.com/abbodi1406/ConsumerESU/
  is currently unavailable on GitHub (either removed or temporarily blocked, similar to a past false-positive suspension that also briefly affected my own profile)
