MediaCreationTool.bat VS wslg

Very long story short - the only way I was able to get it to work without BSOD was to install the latest Canary build of Win11. I used this tool: Offline Insider Enroll because I'm running a bootcamp partition on an intel macbook pro. I also needed to use this tool to bypass the TPM check because the macbook pro is not officially supported: Skip TPM Check on Dynamic Update.

I am a longtime Windows User and a big fan of it. Recently, I got the 2017 Intel Mac Pro, which can run Windows from the Mac Bootcamp. Using AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat I managed to get Windows 21H2 on the Macbook. However, a few updates later, and the Windows software is not updating to 22H2. I tried the requirement disabler from that same url, updating all my drivers, and restarting, to no effect. Hoping someone can help.

You can actually use mediacreationtool.bat and it can enable streamline updates like it is natively supported. Been running it alongside macOS on my Mid 2012 MBP and I often forget that it is an unsupported system.Mediacreationtool.bat Github Though since this is a 4th gen Intel system that OP has they can also just use the Microsoft official workaround. Installing Windows 11 on devices that don't meet minimum system requirements

What I did try before uploading this post, was to use the famous mediacreationtool script from aveyo, and the script seemed to work as Windows Update downloaded and installed the update, but after logging in I found that my build number was still the same.

Use this tool to upgrade 10 to 11: https://github.com/AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat

What I do is use https://github.com/AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat to acquire a legitimate iso of windows 10/11 enterprise, then use massgravels MAS(a reverse engineered windows activation script) to permanently activate windows.

WSLg(Windows Subsystem for Linux GUI) uses RDP and FreeRDP to work: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm hopeful the experience is better than last time I tried Hyper-V enhanced linux experience. I imagine this use case is getting FreeRDP way more attention.

For years I've developed in a Linux VM on a Windows host via VirtualBox. The typing lag on this, particularly in IDEs like VSCode and Rider, finally got to me. So, I moved over to WSL and have to say; the experience is amazing.

This is running in WSL?

Microsoft has some wayland stuff already for WSL, though I think internally there's RDP involved: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

That said. Graphical apps will just run on WSL without needing to install anything. Check: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

What are you talking about? Its free forever https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

Actually, you can https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

See: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/563 and other similar issues on wslg GitHub.

Apparently, WSLg does away with the need for a separate X server, making things "easy" to use:

There's two completely different aspects to your question. 1) How to manage libraries in c++ without dying from cringe? I'd suggest you use cmake as the build system and grab library sources directly from GitHub using this tool: https://github.com/cpm-cmake/CPM.cmake 2) How to get apps that run under WSL to display windows-native windows? I'm not sure, but it's probably this: https://github.com/microsoft/wslg

Here’s a thread about it. You can get into the underlying RDP session instead of just apps launching. https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/issues/1019
