ISO Injection

📺 A guide to injecting the ReviOS playbook into a Windows 11 ISO.

⚠️ Known Issues

ISO Injection is expermimental and complex process, and as such there are some known issues:

  • In certain cases the "Could not find log directory" error may appear
    • Try running AME Beta as an administrator
  • When ISO language is different than English (like French), admin rights don't work
    • Make sure to use en_US ISO or directly download from AME
  • VMWare clipboard sharing does not work after the reboot (AME Beta issue)
  • Classic context menu tweak not applied (Use Revision Tool)
  • Firefox installation takes a long time (AME Beta issue)
    • Use Task Manager CTRL + SHIFT + ESC to end chocolatey processes
Before You Begin...
  • USB drive: A USB drive with at least 8GB capacity is required. Ensure that the USB drive is empty or that you have backed up any important data, as the process will format the drive

  • Backup Your Data: Before performing any system modifications or installations, we strongly recommend that you back up all your important files. This is a critical step to prevent any data loss. We are not responsible for any data loss that may occur during this process

    • You can either use a separate partition to save your data, or you can move your data to an external drive. You could even use your installation drive, so long as it has enough storage space left. Copy your data after flashing Windows onto it
  • Rename Your Current OS Drive: We advise you to rename your current C: drive to OS or something familiar before starting the installation process. This helps easily identify it later, like on the picture below: Tip 1

  • Use the Latest Versions: Always download the latest version of AME Beta and the ReviOS playbook for the best results and the most up-to-date features and fixes

🟨 Essentials

To begin, you'll need to download a few essential files. These files will help you create a bootable USB drive with the Windows ISO.
