Media Creation Tool (USB): Created a bootable installation USB. When launching the recovery options from it, it just restarted the loop.

There is a bug in version 26200.8653.

Windows 11 installation ISO/USB created with the Media Creation Tool
- Build 26200.8653

Download Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO) for x64 devices
- Build 26200.8037

On the "Select setup option" screen, you can open a Command Prompt by pressing Shift + F10. However, if you need installation media that provides access to the recovery options (Repair my PC > Next), go to the Windows 11 download page, select the "Download Windows 11 Disk Image (ISO) for x64 devices" option, and then create a bootable USB flash drive using Rufus (Partition scheme: GPT).

As it turned out, StartAllBack was the cause of the UI errors, the update fixed everything.

I'll try upgrading to 25H2 and see if the update errors are gone.

ChatGPT:

Both sequences will usually result in the same partition, but the first sequence is the recommended and more reliable one.

Why format before setting the partition ID?​

  • create partition primary creates a normal GPT partition.
  • format quick fs=ntfs formats it while it's still treated as a standard data partition.
  • set id=DE94BBA4-06D1-4D40-A16A-BFD50179D6AC changes it to the Windows Recovery (WinRE) partition type.
  • gpt attributes=0x8000000000000001 marks it as required and hides it from normal users.
If you set the ID before formatting (your second example), DiskPart often still formats it successfully, but on some Windows versions it may refuse or produce messages like the partition is protected or not intended for normal use because it's already identified as a recovery partition.
