Not just an Universal MediaCreationTool wrapper script with ingenious support for business editions,
A powerful yet simple windows 10 / 11 deployment automation tool as well!
If you had no success launching the script so far, this latest version will work
Presets
1 Auto Upgrade with detected media, script assists setupprep for upgrading directly
— can keep files and apps on more scenarios where os and target edition does not match
— can switch detected edition by adding EditionID to script name
— can troubleshoot upgrade failing by addingno_update
to script name
— auto defaults to 11, so pass version as well for 10:auto 21H2 MediaCreationTool.bat
2 Auto ISO with detected media in current folder directly (or C:\ESD if run from zip)
— can override detected media by adding edition name / language / arch to script name
— example:21H1 Education en-US x86 iso MediaCreationTool.bat
3 Auto USB with detected media in specified usb target
— for data safety, this is not fully automated — must select the usb drive manually in GUI
4 Select with user picked Edition, Language, Arch (x86,x64,both) — on specified target
— implicit choice, includes setup override files (disable by adding
def
to script name)
5 MCT Defaults runs unassisted, creating media without script modification
— no added files, script passes
products.xml
to MCT and quits without touching media
1-4 presets will modify created media in the following ways:
— write
auto.cmd
to run on demand for auto upgrade with edition switch and skip tpm
— write$ISO$
folder content (if it exists) at the root of the media
if you previously used $OEM$ content, must now place it in$ISO$\sources\$OEM$\
— writesources\PID.txt
to preselect edition at media boot or within windows (if configured)
— writesources\EI.cfg
to prevent product key prompt on Windows 11 consumer media (11 only)
— writeAutoUnattend.xml
in boot.wim to enable local account on Windows 11 Home (11 only)
— patchwinsetup.dll
in boot.wim to remove windows 11 setup checks when booting from media (11 only)
— can disable by addingdef
to script name for a default, untouched MCT media
Simple deployment
auto.cmd is behind Auto Upgrade preset via GUI
Can run it fully unnatended by renaming script with auto MediaCreationTool.bat
Makes it easy to upgrade keeping files and apps when the OS edition does not match the media
Should allow upgrade from Ultimate, PosReady, Embedded, LTSC or Enterprise Eval as well
Generated script is added to the created media so you can run it again at any time
It is fairly generic — it will detect available editions in install.esd, pick a suitable index,
then set EditionID in the registry to match; can even force another edition, keeping files and apps!
On 11, it will try to skip setup checks (can disable this behavior with script var)
Finally, it sets recommended setup options with least amount of issues on upgrades
Let’s say the current OS is Enterprise LTSC 2019, and you use the business media to upgrade:
auto.cmd selects Enterprise index and adjust EditionID to Enterprise in the registry (backed up as EditionID_undo)
Maybe you also want to switch edition,
ex. by renaming the script toProfessionalWorkstation MediaCreationTool.bat
:
auto.cmd selects Professional index and sets EditionID to ProfessionalWorkstation in the registry.Let’s say the OS is Windows 7 Ultimate or PosReady, and you use the consumer media to upgrade:
auto.cmd selects Professional index, and sets EditionID to Professional or Enterprise, respectively.
In all cases, the script tries to pick an existing index, else a compatible one to keep files and apps on upgrade.Let’s say you have a dozen PCs spread with versions: 7, 8.1, 10 and editions: Ultimate, Home, Enterprise LTSB..
If you need to upgrade all to the latest 10 version and only use Pro, you could rename the script as:
auto 21H2 Pro MediaCreationTool.bat
Can even add a VL / MAK / retail product key in the same way to take care of licensing differences.
The script also picks up any$ISO$
folder in the current location — for $OEM$ branding, configuration, tweaks etc.
Changelog
No need to right-click Run as Admin, script will ask itself. Directly saving the Raw files no longer breaks line endings
We did it! We broke the previous gist So this is the new home. Thank you all!

Saving ISO Files in C:/ESD
@AveYo
Can you please tell me a way I can make this script use the C:\ESD folder instead of the downloads folder, they way it did earlier.
I want it to store everything (the MCT Folder, the shortcut to download the latest version of the tool and the ISO File) in the ESD folder.
Thanks.
The lastest commit broke the auto setup
With the latest commit 1fcb724 when I select Auto, it will download the iso and prompt me to burn it.
The previous version worked fine.
Feature Request: Download ISOs for both architectures
Hi, the MCT lets you say «both» to the question of x64 or x86 arch, but it isn’t clear whether the tool allows this as an option. Does the line
::# uncomment and change autodetected MediaArch - or rename script: "x64 iso 1909 Education MediaCreationTool.bat"
rem set ARCH=x64
Provide an option for «both» (or «all» or something) or are the only accepted options x64 and x86; if the latter, can support for «both» be added?
Thanks
what do you want me to do with that? I’m in short supply of crystal balls these days..
what do you want me to do with that? I’m in short supply of crystal balls these days..
get a qr scan app for your phone and scan it, it will direct you to a microsoft support link
because if that’s an windows setup error — it has nothing to do with this script, your problem is elsewhere
I can only blindly suggest you run a in-place repair with your current windows 10 version
Originally posted by @AveYo in #62 (comment)
only creates shortcut sending me back here
Hi,
when I run the MediaCreationTool.bat the powershell window briefly flashes on I can manage to see menu items 1 2 3 4 etc then it immediately closes and creates single file called latest_MCT.url which sends me back to this page from where I downloaded it? How do I make this work please?
From an ESD or Iso file without TMP
I wonder because I don’t understand the manual how to use your script to make an original Microsoft 22000.318.211104-1236.co_release_svc_refresh_CLIENTBUSINESS_VOL_x64FRE_nl-nl ESD file without TMP?
My regards
Programme fails to complete
When launching the .bat file, the programme gets to about here and then I get a message pop up on the screen.
The .bat file screen then disappears and does not return.
Whatever button I click on the pop-up, the pop-up disappears but nothing else happens.
I’ve deleted all the files I can find related to this tool and downloaded a fresh copy but the same thing happens so I must be missing something.
The first time I ran this tool I got past this stage and was able to select Windows 11 and then the Create ISO option but it got to a point and then stopped. Unfortunately I didn’t take a screenshot.
When it stopped the first time around, I got a pop-up from my anti-virus software so I think it might have done something but cannot be certain. Do you have any ideas on how to fix this?
Appreciate your time and effort in producing this tool.
Older script to clear TPM keys in Windows 10
Could You be so nice and send me ([email protected]) a script written around 5th of Oct 21 to clear all TPM keys. I have an issue with computer (I have WOW6432Node malware) and this helped me to remove some hidden traces (my whole network is infected and this is for another computer).
There were only 4 or 5 commands that I copied in command prompt and they did the magic (the computer needed restart) and yes thank You in advance, sincerely, Grega Leskovšek from Slovenia
I meant to Selecting as Windows 10 Version 1507 but Why Selected as Version 1607? Random?
Check out… There’s a Issues?
Could you update the build version of Windows 10 21H2?
Hello, according to the news from microsoft, the final release version of Windows 10 21H2 will be Build 19044.1288. The version of Windows 10 21H2 in script is a little old. Could you update the version to Build 19044.1288 in the script?
20H2 Download Validation Issues
Error codes 0x8007000D — 0x90002 in Microsoft MCT when validating ISO download for 20H2. Running the following command to generate:
MediaCreationTool.bat ISO 20H2 Pro
Localization
The script fails during the ‘generate_No_11_Setup_Checks_on_Boot_cmd’ phase on windows systems where the name of the local ‘administrators’ group is localized (like ‘administradores’ on spanish windows versions).
Specifically the script fails with an exception on the line that reads:
set c1= $b = [System.IO.File]::ReadAllBytes(‘winsetup.dll’); $h = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($b)-replace’-‘
modifying the previous line that reads:
pushd %BOOT%\sources & takeown /f winsetup.dll /a >nul & icacls winsetup.dll /grant administrators:f >nul
changing ‘administrators’ to match the name of the correct local administrators group fixes the problem.
Probably using something like:
([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier]’S-1-5-32-544′).Translate( [System.Security.Principal.NTAccount]).Value
to obtain the localized name of the administrators group would provide a more general solution.
Bad Link/Missing File
Latest build is creating a different installer that seems to break in-place upgrade
As of the latest commit, it seems that the MCT is creating a slightly different ISO. The setup.exe from this ISO launches full screen, and doesn’t provide any options to upgrade to Windows 11, it asks you to select an edition, and then a drive/partition to install to, similar to when you boot from the installer. No option is given to keep files/apps.
I confirmed that the previous commit from 10/20 does not have this issue, I was able to run it and the MCT created an ISO that worked without issue for an upgrade.
Rolling back
Hello.
I was able to install Windows 11 but setup restarted after finish and when it restarted it rolled back at black, opening screen. And tadaa… Windows 10, again with an error which cant remember about it but something «start up» i guess… Any fix or hints or advice?
Feature request: allow users to add custom files
Hi and thanks for this software. I was wondering if it’s possible to add custom files to the ISO.
I think the script is already capable of adding files, like with the $OEM$ folder.
In this case, I’d like my files to be placed in the root of the iso file, not sources\$OEM$\
For example, maybe some one needs to add a custom autounattend.xml in the root of the ISO.
EDIT: It would be good if this task would be «unlinked» from the ‘DEF’ stage. In other words: adding custom folder without adding: $OEM$ PID.txt EI.cfg auto.cmd unattend.xml.

Windows 10 21H1 ISO file size difference
Hey,
So, I was looking to download the Windows 10 21H1 ISO and back when it was the latest version available the normal MCT generated ISO used to weigh up to about 4.29GB whereas the 21H1 ISO downloaded from MCT through your script is about 4.38GB, why is that?
Thanks,
Regards
TPM bypass not working.
My laptop does not have a TPM (v1 or v2), secure boot is enabled by default and cannot be disabled inside BIOS.
Did the following:
- run the batch script
- selected 11 -> Select in MCT
- followed MCT step by step, created ISO file
Then I mount the created ISO and run setup.exe (to upgrade), but setup says need TPM 2.0 and cannot continue.
Feature request: Addition of LTSC ISOs to the tool
As the title says, it would be nice to have access to the LTSC versions of the Windows ISOs.
This could be added as a separate argument the user can edit in the MediaCreationTool.bat.
Since not all Windows versions come with an LTSC counterpart, maybe it would be wise to add a «(LTSC available)» note to those who do.
Also, if the user sets the set LTSC = True
tag, it should be verified only if the set MCT=XXXX
tag is that of a supported version:
set LTSC = True
andset MCT=21H2
is a valid optionset LTSC = True
andset MCT=20H1
isn’t a valid option
Forgive me if this is already a feature, or something that can’t be implemented.
[Feature Request] windows clean upgrade
can you add the option to delete everything before upgrade windows 10, [windows restoration] thank you.
Lines 51 & 55 set command not correct
Original
set/a dV=14
set/a dP=4
Corrected
set /a dV=14
set /a dP=4
I could not get the script to run for me after latest update. So i changed those 2 lines and its working.
Am i correct in that was causing issues?

Selected auto install, upgrading to windows server instead of 11
Hello. I have already updated 2 computers with this method. But my third computer is on a xeon processor and when I updated win 10 home I saw the title Installing Windows Server … now updating and I hope it’s just a mistake in the title.
I have finally improved the download function, it will try different methods as a fallback

TPM bypassing is still not ideal, but should work if you use auto.cmd
to run setup

Hi, please add the feature to download and create a Windows 11 ISO based for ARM64 devices
cannot open the MediaCreationTool.bat
Thanks for the author!
but I have some problem in running this bat.
Neither I double click or run as Admin, the cmd window just show and auto close immediately.
Should I install something like net.framework before running this?
Maybe a stupid question

Cannot update Windows 11 through official update (non-insider)
I ran the latest version of the v7 Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Update.cmd script, but I am unable to install Windows 11 through the non-insider Windows update.
I checked Regedit, and the keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\SetupHost.exe
are there.
According to the PC Health Check, the two incompatibilities are that my TPM is on version 1.2 and my CPU is unsupported: it’s an Intel Core i5-3470 CPU.
Windows Server installation has failed

Windows Insider Enrollment and DEF argument
@AveYo
Hello,
I wanted to know how can I use your Win11 Bypass scripts to enroll an unsupported PC in windows insider dev channel.
and also how do I add the Def argument to the script
Location of new Windows 11 ISO File?
Unable to determine location of new Windows 11 ISO file after windows installation media is finished.
what do you want me to do with that? I’m in short supply on crystal balls these days..
what do you want me to do with that? I’m in short supply of crystal balls these days..
get a qr scan app for your phone and scan it, it will direct you to a microsoft support link
because if that’s an windows setup error — it has nothing to do with this script, your problem is elsewhere
I can only blindly suggest you run a in-place repair with your current windows 10 version

was checked.
Feature request
Please add feature that will download and compile Windows 11 22h2 (dev)
Feature Request
Windows 11 (Dev Channel) attempted to update (through Windows update) and failed due to it being an unsupported PC. I then ran Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Update_v4.cmd, rebooted, and attempted to update again, but the update failed the same way.
To fix the issue, I deleted the $WINDOWS.~BT folder, rebooted, and then tried to update and was successful.
You might consider adding the ability for the script to deal with the Windows update files being present before the script is ran, perhaps by just deleting AppraiserRes.dll and appraiser.sdb if they are present. This way it will work for anyone who attempted to update prior to running the script and then afterwards it will maintain the system’s ability to dynamic update.
Great work by the way, this is exactly what I have been looking for as I don’t own a single machine that would be officially supported by Windows 11.
