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!

configure via set vars, commandline parameters or rename script like iso 21H2 Pro MediaCreationTool.bat
recommended windows setup options with the least amount of issues on upgrades set via auto.cmd
awesome dialogs with keyboard focus to pick target version and preset action

1 Auto Upgrade with detected media, script assists setupprep for upgrading directly
- can troubleshoot upgrade failing by adding no_update to script name

2 Make ISO with detected media in Downloads folder directly
- can override detected media by adding edition name / language / arch to script name

3 Make USB with detected media in specified usb target
- can click Back and select ISO instead to save in a different path

4 Select with picked Edition, Language, Arch - on specified target
- implicit choice, will include setup override files

5 MCT Defaults with GUI selected media, makes vanilla, default MCT iso/usb
- no added file, script passes products.xml and quits without touching media

1-4 presets will add any setup override files to created media
- can be disabled by adding def to script name
- write $OEM$ folder (if it exists) with post setup tweaks like $OEM$\$$\Setup\Scripts\setupcomplete.cmd
- write sources\PID.txt to preselect edition at media boot or setup within windows (if configured)
- write auto.cmd to re-run upgrade from media on demand (includes Skip TPM Check on Dynamic Update)
- write AutoUnattend.xml to override 11 setup checks on media boot (and enable local account on Home)
- patch winsetup.dll in boot.wim for booting 11 in VirtualBox 5.x (with optional FIX arg)

Skip TPM Check on Dynamic Update v3 (ifeo-based, no cmd window) standalone toggle script in MCT dir
- system-wide, unblocks insider previews on windows update, or running setup.exe manually while online
- when using created media on another pc for the first time, can launch auto.cmd from media once to enable

Saving the Raw file no longer breaks line endings
Don't need to right-click Run as Admin, script will ask itself when needed
We did it! We broke the previous gist ;) So this is the new home now.
Thank you all!
