Important
If you use Windows Defender, it may incorrectly flag this version as malware. SmartScreen may also do this. Don't worry; this is safe to download and use.
This AV solution flags this program because it lacks code-signing certificates, which are quite expensive (as of January 2025, 660 and 864 dollars for 3 years of SV and EV certificates, respectively, from Comodo).
If you use other antivirus solutions, you will not see this problem. Learn more here
Bugfixes
- When picking a starter script using the predefined collection, language highlighting is correctly selected now
- ADK detection has been refactored in both the main program and the PE Helper to detect ADK kits roots, as opposed to a registry value that is no longer added by ADK installers (thanks rayman95 on the My Digital Life forums for spotting)
- Certain windows that cause freezes when the program is closed are now closed automatically
New features
Preinstallation Environment Helper
- You can now access PXE Helper Servers more quickly from the Tools menu:
- Notes are now included for the FOG Helper Server on UNIX
- The FOG Helper Server for UNIX now checks presence of FOG and MariaDB systemd service units
- DISMTools will now warn you when you create ISO files with UEFI CA 2023 support on a system that does not offer such support:
- The PE Helper now adds the WDS Tools optional component to the Preinstallation Environment
- The image capture script in the DISMTools Preinstallation Environment now lets you launch the Driver Installation Module to load disk controllers, and the WDS image capture wizard to capture your installations for a WDS instance:
- Several improvements were made to the WDS Helper:
- The WDS Helper now displays a warning when it's loaded on non-PXE environments:
- The WDS Helper can now get the IP addresses of the PXE client and the PXE server. You can default to using the server's IP address and the default port as well:
- The WDS Helper now validates more information when authenticating with the server
- The WDS Helper now displays a warning when it's loaded on non-PXE environments:
Unattended answer file features
- A product key can now be determined automatically by the wizard based on the edition of the mounted Windows image:
Note
Edition detection should work correctly for most Windows images as they use standard edition IDs such as Professional or ProfessionalWorkstation. Otherwise, you will still be able to specify an edition manually, or a custom product key that works with said Windows image. The generic product keys work with Windows 11. They may also work with Windows 10.
Miscellaneous
- The popup mounted image picker now loads at the center of the parent window to avoid showing either partially or out of screen bounds
- The following libraries and components have been updated:
| Component | Version in latest preview | New version |
|---|---|---|
| Scintilla.NET | 6.1.0
| 6.1.1
