Win 11 .71 clean installation

I had a thought today and I did a clean instillation of Windows 11 for the heck of it. What I wanted to see was could I create a bootable ISO/USB and install Windows 11.

My first step was to use POWERISO to create the bootable ISO. It’s like Rufus but I wanted to give it a try. Then, after that was done I disabled secure boot and did a boot of my PC to the BIOS.

I was able to easily pick out the USB Flash drive and I used my Windows 10 key and it was accepted. Then the instillation went just fine, just as Shawn’s tutorial shows.

All in all, it just worked and I’m happy with the results.

I've taken to ticking the option on UUPDump to create a script that will make an ISO containing an install.esd. That means I can make a bootable USB just by mounting the ISO and copying all the files to a Fat32 formatted USB using File Explorer.

I have to give that a try,, thanks for the suggestion.

I had to use UUDump on my VM as it was on the leaked build.

I used the official build from MS to do the clean instillation.
