Help Requested

Before I start on what is not working I am using a running a 7900x processor with 16gb of ram that works quite well on Debian and >Kali linux but not so much on windows 11. I have a good bit of programming experience but much of it is 30 yr old experience and >very low level … read that to mean “C” and ASM. Having said that below follows what I did and entered for someone to make >recommendations on. I have had a rough day today having had outpatient surgery but can't stand sitting in a chair watching the >BOOBTUBE today.

Instructions:

1. Download Windows 11 from the Microsoft website or Rufus
2. Mount the downloaded ISO image using Windows Explorer.

completed

4. Open PowerShell 5.1 as Administrator.

completed

6. Change the script execution policy :

So I entered: Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass-Scope Process

In return I get:
Set-ExecutionPolicy: A positional parameter cannot be found that accepts argument 'Bypass-Scope'.

Using-Scope Process you keep your original policy intact as this change only lasts for the current PowerShell session.
7.Start the script :

C:/path/to/your/tiny11/script.ps1 -ISO -SCRATCH
To which I respond:
C:\users\Kar\Desktop\new\tiny11maker.ps1 -ISO C -Scratch C

You can see of the script by running the get-help command.
Upon entering get-help PowerShell responds with a “>>”

8. Select the drive letter where the image is mounted (only the letter, no colon (:))
   on my computer that would be C drive so I add only the “C”
9. Select the SKU that you want the image to be based.
   Ok now I know I am slow and I just had outpatient surgery today but where do I use the SKU to this line or does something pop up and I have to select this somehow. No documentation to explain this and I can't read minds on tuesday afternoons.
10. Sit back and relax :)

I don't see anything happening nor do I ever see tiny11.iso appear in my directory which is where I thing it should end up when done.

11. When the image is completed, you will see it in the folder where the script was extracted, with the name tiny11

Finally, we get to the list of items that are going to be removed. Do I get to chose which ones go and which ones stay? If so how >and where?
So what did I do incorrectly? Did I enter something wrong or what. I really do need to upgrade my windows 11 soon as the current >one is broken for some reason and does not want to correctly install the SSH and SSHserver clients and several other things and its > annoying me to no end.
Thanks in advance for any help you might render.

Hi @Jim-MD !
There is a few things. Hope that can help you.

---

The right command for the execution policy is :

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process

There is a space missing between bypass and scope on yours

---

The -ISO parameter is the letter of the mounted iso in your step 2.

It probably not C ? You have a normal install of windows ?

The -SCRATCH param is the letter of the drive you want to use as working directory for the tiny11 script.

(for copying stuff, making modification etc...) all file created on this drive will be erased at the end.

---

The SKU is an identifier for a specific configuration of windows.

Here the script ask you if you want windows home, pro, pro N etc...

---

The iso is created where the script is.

Be sure to have the last tiny11maker.ps1 script on the main page not in release.

What am I supposed to do when it asks for the image index? First time, so I don't know much.
