Updating a Windows to Go / standard install on a vhdx file

Hi folks

Ignore this -- I made an error so deleting text. See succeeding post in this thread.

Hi there.

it DOES work properly --- create a STANDARD ISO (not the Windows to go one) with Rufus or whatever, using their exclusions for storage etc etc and from the system you want to update set the portableoperatingsystem flag to 'hex zero', reboot system and then run the setup from the setup.exe file on the iso / usb created files. Choose keep data and applications in the section of what to keep when prompted.



Note -- on this release if you use snipping tool there's some weird problem with onedrive and / or pictures folder so problems saving file.To get round it simply copy to clipboard and save to a different local folder specifically. E.g downloads or whatever.



I'm on release :


Installed and booted from external nvme stick in USBC adapter.
