Frequently Asked Questions
Which build do I choose?
This is a question only you can answer.
Which build entry do I choose?
Most builds will be available as one of the following:
- Cumulative Update (AKA „Update to [...]”)
- Feature Update (AKA „Upgrade to [...]” or no special name at all)
If you want to create an updated image or you're not sure, choose the Feature Update.
So: Cumulative Updates generally aren't very useful, avoid them.
How do I choose Enterprise/Education or other editions?
Select their base edition first.
Virtual Edition | Base Edition |
---|---|
Enterprise | Pro |
Education | Pro |
Pro Education | Pro |
Pro for Workstations | Pro |
IoT Enterprise | Pro |
Home Single Language | Home |
You can select the virtual editions after you choose to add additional editions (third Download method).
"There are no languages available for this build."?
This means the chosen entry is not a complete build of Windows.
It's probably one of the following:
- standalone update.
- Server build without metadata
Those entries cannot be made into Windows images. Their files can sometimes be useful though.
If you see this on a regular build of Windows or Windows Server, that means it's metadata ESD is unavailable.
Debloat?
No. Don't.
There's a build with a (2)
in its name. What does this mean?
Most often that the build was pushed to more than one channel.
Alternatively this could be a build of a different release type that was mistaken for a duplicate.
