🚀 Tips2Fix Windows 11 25H2 Installer

Safe Confirmed Edition ✅

A friendly, consent‑driven helper to launch the Windows 11 25H2 setup on unsupported PCs — with clear UI, live progress, and antivirus‑friendly behavior.
Built by Tips2Fix in collaboration with ChatGPT (Tips2Fix Project).

✨ Highlights

• Three modes:
  1. Fast – no registry changes.
  2. Advanced – applies only on consent the well‑known LabConfig/MoSetup keys (TPM / CPU / RAM / Secure Boot bypass).
  3. Reset – removes those keys and restores defaults.
• ISO → Desktop extraction with a live progress bar (no obfuscation, no hidden windows).
• User consent for everything (extraction, registry edits, setup start, optional YouTube open).
• Clear logs written to your Desktop: Tips2Fix_W11_install_log.txt.
• No persistence, no background tasks, no network calls (except optional YouTube, on consent).

This project keeps the original UI layout (orange title & footer) you saw in the video, so users won’t be surprised by a different interface.

📦 What’s in this folder

• Run-Installer.bat — launcher that elevates if needed and starts the PowerShell script.
• Windows11_QuickInstaller.ps1 — the main guided installer (WinForms UI).
• README.md — this file.

Keep both .bat and .ps1 in the same folder.

---

🖥 Requirements

• Windows 10 or later
• Administrator rights (UAC prompt will appear)
• Windows PowerShell 5.1 (built-in on Windows 10+)
• A Windows 11 25H2 ISO file

Recommended: a good backup before you start. Installing on unsupported hardware is at your own risk.

---

🚀 Quick Start

1. Download this folder (or clone) and unzip it somewhere local.
2. Right‑click Run-Installer.bat → Run as administrator.
3. Pick your Windows 11 25H2 ISO.
4. Choose mode: Fast, Advanced, or Reset.
5. Confirm extraction location (defaults to Desktop\<ISO name>).
6. After extraction, confirm Start Setup.
7. (Optional) After launch, you may be asked whether to open the Tips2Fix YouTube channel.

When Windows installation is completely finished, you can safely delete the extracted folder from your Desktop.

🧭 Modes explained

1) Fast (no registry edits)

• Extracts ISO to Desktop\<ISO name>.
• Launches the official Windows Setup from the extracted files.
• Good for supported or near‑supported hardware.

2) Advanced (apply bypass keys on consent)

• Creates these keys (DWORD = 1) to relax checks during setup:
  • HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig\BypassTPMCheck
  • HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig\BypassSecureBootCheck
  • HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig\BypassRAMCheck
  • HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig\BypassCPUCheck
  • HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup\AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU
• Asks before applying anything.
• You can run Reset later to remove them.

3) Reset (restore defaults)

• Deletes HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig (if present).
• Deletes the AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU value under HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup (if present).

All registry operations are visible and logged; nothing is hidden.

🔐 Antivirus‑friendly design

• Consent‑first: every sensitive step has a clear Yes/No prompt.
• No obfuscation or encoded commands; no AMSI tampering; no persistence.
• Local file operations only (ISO mount + copy), using standard Windows tools.
• Optional network action (open YouTube) only after user confirmation.
• Logging to a visible Desktop text file.
• Supports running with Execution Policy RemoteSigned or AllSigned for best results (see below).

Code signing & Execution Policy (recommended)

• If you can code‑sign the PS1, the BAT will happily run under AllSigned (most AV‑friendly).
• If unsigned, the launcher can prompt to Unblock the PS1 so it can run under RemoteSigned.
• You can also run with Bypass, but some AVs score that higher heuristically.

---

🧰 How it works (technical)

• Elevation: via UAC on demand; the BAT/PS1 do not force elevation silently.
• ISO: mounted via Mount-DiskImage.
• Extraction: deterministic Copy-Item with a live progress bar (WinForms).
• Setup: prefers sources\setupprep.exe, falling back to setup.exe.
• Arguments: launches with /product server to allow the GUI install flow.
• Logs: Desktop\Tips2Fix_W11_install_log.txt with timestamps.

🧪 Troubleshooting

Mount failed or no drive letter appears

• Wait ~5–10 seconds; external drives can be slow to enumerate.
• Ensure the ISO opens normally by double‑clicking in File Explorer.
• Some 3rd‑party virtual‑drive tools can interfere — try disabling them.

Extraction seems stuck or very slow

• Large ISOs on slow HDDs can take time; the progress bar uses real file counts.
• Make sure you have enough free space on Desktop (same drive as %USERPROFILE%).

“Setup files not found” after extraction

• Check that Desktop\<ISO name>\sources\setupprep.exe (or setup.exe) exists.
• If your ISO is modified/trimmed, mount it again and verify its structure.

Registry bypass didn’t stick

• You may have chosen Fast mode. Run the tool again and select Advanced.
• Corporate policies can lock those keys; try again as full Admin.

SmartScreen/AV warning

• Prefer signed scripts and run under AllSigned/RemoteSigned (no Bypass).
• Keep files unmodified after signing (changing file contents invalidates the signature).

---

🔍 Verify downloads (optional but recommended)

You can compute a checksum after download:

Get-FileHash .\Windows11_QuickInstaller.ps1 -Algorithm SHA256
Get-FileHash .\Run-Installer.bat -Algorithm SHA256

Compare the hashes with the published values (if you distribute releases).

🔒 Privacy

• The tool does not collect or transmit personal data.
• No telemetry, analytics, or background services.
