Do you have a question, then?

By the way, 128GB is very small for containing 2 Windows OSs. I think you'll get plagued with space-related problems.
I think you'd be better off deciding which OS you want [& checking you have a licence for it] then only installing that one.

Pressing the Windows key 5x during OOBE starts up the process to install a PPKG provisioning package from an USB device. It's there for IT admins to apply local changes to a factory-fresh PC without re-installing Windows.

The admin builts a PPKG package using Windows Configuration Designer (WCD) and copies the file to an USB device. Larger organizations don't do this because it doesn't scale up (you need an admin plugging the USB drive into the PC when it reaches OOBE).

YouTube is a giant game of "telephone" for Windows tech tips.
For anyone to go to youtube for advise over using known reputable sources is beyond me. Too many snake oil salesmen selling their wares for clicks.

On a clean install of Windows, there's no real point in Resetting the Device. You've barely made any changes at this stage in OOBE.

Hello again,
My desktop pc has Disk 0 (HDD 1TB) with two partitions.Windows 11 Pro and Windows 11 Home in MBR partition style.
Addional Disk 1SSD 128 GB has two partitions. Windows 11 Pro and Windows 11 Home in GPT partition style. I applied reset device at the country/region selection screen during installation of Windows 11 Home v26H2 OS BUILD 26300.9457. I had already used Dism Apply Image to install Windows 11 Home on second partition of SSD.
Resetting this pc completely wiped out disk 0 and one partition of disk 1.Now Windows 11 Home is running on SSD. These are installed for verification of scripts. (Batch files) which I am posting today.
Thanks @garlin
Thanks @Try3.
Thanks everyone.
