# Bypass Microsoft Geoblocking
Microsoft blocks services in certain countries due to U.S. laws and local legal regulations. For example, users in Russia may not be able to download Windows or Office.
Countries with broad restrictions:
`Belarus, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria, Venezuela`
Countries with limited Microsoft Store app functionality:
`CU, IR, KP, SS, SD, SY`
`MR, VE, EH, AS, BQ, FK, TF, GG, IM, JE, LB, CW, ME, YT, BL, SH, MF, PM, ST, SX, UM, AX`
*These lists are not exhaustive.*
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Windows Download
Users from blocked countries, such as Russia and Belarus, may encounter an error when trying to download Windows ISOs from the [official Microsoft page](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download).
### Error
`We are unable to complete your request at this time. Some users, entities and locations are banned from using this service. For this reason, leveraging anonymous or location hiding technologies when connecting to this service is not generally allowed. If you believe that you encountered this problem in error, please try again. If the problem persists you may contact Microsoft Support – Contact Us page for assistance. Refer to message code 715-123130 and 150506a6-3ed5-4d99-8b41-3d4de0f2620b.`
### Solution
[MSDL](https://msdl.gravesoft.dev/)
It uses shared sessions/proxy to generate official download links in Russia and all other blocked places.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Office Download
Users from blocked countries, such as Russia and Belarus, may encounter an error when trying to [download](office_c2r_links.md) Office C2R with the online installer or ODT.
### Error
`Command not supported`
`We're sorry, we can't continue because we weren't able to download a required file. Please make sure you're connected to the internet or connect to a different network, then try again.`
![](./assets/office_download_error_in_russia.png)
#### How is Microsoft blocking it?
Primarily, it checks for Russian IP addresses, and based on that, the above error is shown to users. However that's not the end of it. Once it find out that Russian IP is used, the installer creates the registry key below to remember it. After that, even if you use a VPN, the installer will still keep showing the error.
```
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\Ecs]
"CountryCode"="std::wstring|RU"
```
### Solution 1
- Open command prompt as admin and enter,
```
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Common\ExperimentConfigs\Ecs" /v "CountryCode" /t REG_SZ /d "std::wstring|US" /f
```
After that, the office installer won't show any related errors. You can apply this before or after running the Office installer and you can download Office without any VPN with your Russian IP address.
**Or**
### Solution 2
- Use the [Offline installer file](office_c2r_links.md) to install Office.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Microsoft Store App
If the Microsoft Store app isn’t working in your region, you can try changing your region in Windows settings to access it.

# Clean Install Windows
Guide on how to backup your data and clean install Windows.
---
## Prerequisites
- A genuine Windows ISO file, you can download from https://msdl.gravesoft.dev/
- The latest version of Rufus from https://rufus.ie/
- A minimum 8GB USB drive
- Follow this [guide](remove_malware.md) before making a bootable USB if you think the system has malware.
<details>
<summary>Another clean system if your current system is infected with File infector malware.</summary>
**Why?**
Because file infector malware can copy itself to the bootable USB that you are going to make to perform a clean installation.
You need to use another clean system to make a bootable USB and plug it into the current infected system only when it's not running live Windows.
**How to check if you have file infector malware?**
Open PowerShell as admin and enter
`sc.exe start "sppsvc" > $null 2>&1; Write-Host "Error code: $LASTEXITCODE"`
If the output is 577 or 225, then most likely chances are that the system is infected with File infector malware.
**What if you don't have another clean system?**
You can try Dr.Web https://free.drweb.com/download+cureit/gr to remove file infector malware. However in some cases, it may miss to remove all, that's why its best to make bootable USB on another clean system.
</details>
---
## Back up your data
The clean installation process will format the C drive where Windows is installed; if you have any data in the C drive, you need to back it up.
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="multiple_partition" label="I have multiple partitions on my drive, like C:\ D:\" default>
- You can copy your data from C drive and paste it into other partitions.
- Your data is usually located in the below place on the C drive,
- Go to this folder `C:\Users` and then select the user account that you are using.
- Your data is saved in Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos folders.
- Save these folders in another partition to backup.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="one_partition" label="I have C:\ drive only" default>
- Your data is usually located in the below place on the C drive,
- Go to this folder `C:\Users` and then select the user account that you are using.
- Your data is saved in Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos folders.
- If you have a **small amount of data** to back up, save it on the below listed online drives or the USB drive after making it bootable with Rufus.
- If you have a **large amount of data** that you can't save on an external drive or online drive,
- Create another partition using this guide https://youtu.be/_HgjasKuOBw
- Save your data onto that other newly created partition.
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
---
:::tip
It's highly recommended to backup your critical data on some online drive as well, for example,
[GoogleDrive](https://drive.google.com/) - 15GB Free
[OneDrive](https://onedrive.live.com/) - 5GB Free
[Mega](https://mega.io/) - 20GB Free
:::
---
## Create a bootable USB with Rufus
- Plug your USB drive into the system. (Its data will be deleted.)
- Launch Rufus which you downloaded earlier.
- In the "Device" dropdown, select your USB flash drive.
- Boot Selection:
- Click "SELECT" and choose your Windows ISO file. Rufus will auto-configure optimal settings.
- Click "START."
- Wait for Rufus to create the bootable USB. It may take several minutes. You'll see "READY" when done.
---
## Windows 11 on Unsupported Hardware
<details>
<summary>Click here to view</summary>
- Rufus can help you install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware, but you will encounter problems with future feature updates since Microsoft does not permit that on such hardware.
- To resolve this issue, you need to install IoT Enterprise 24H2 (2024) (or newer) edition which is [officially supported](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/iot-enterprise/Hardware/System_Requirements?tabs=Windows11LTSC#optional-minimum-requirements) on unsupported hardware. Don't worry about it being an unusual edition; it's binary identical to other editions, with the primary difference being the licensing.
- This IoT Enterprise edition comes in 2 flavors,
- IoT Enterprise (GAC, General Availability Channel)
- IoT Enterprise (LTSC, Long-Term Servicing Channel)
- Next question, how do we install this edition?
- For GAC version, you don't need IoT Enterprise ISO, you can simply use regular Windows 11 25H2 consumer (linked at the top) or business ISO.
- For LTSC version, you need to download the full version of LTSC ISO (don't use eval), it doesn't have to be IoT ISO, you can download a normal LTSC ISO in your language.
- After flashing the required ISO using Rufus, navigate to the `\sources\` folder on the USB drive and create a file named `PID.txt` (ensure the file extension is correct). Open this file with Notepad and enter the text below.
- For GAC version
```
[PID]
Value=XQQYW-NFFMW-XJPBH-K8732-CKFFD
```
- For LTSC version
```
[PID]
Value=CGK42-GYN6Y-VD22B-BX98W-J8JXD
```
- When installing Windows, avoid selecting the "Previous version of the setup" option. The PID.txt method for virtual editions only works with the new installer in Windows 11 24H2 (or newer).
![image](./assets/do_not_select_previous_version_of_setup.png)
- That's it. The setup will auto-pick the IoT Enterprise edition.
Alternatively, if you don't want to do that, you can install Windows normally and later change the edition to IoT Enterprise.
:::info
**Note for IoT Enterprise (GAC) - Not LTSC**
When installing Windows IoT Enterprise (GAC):
- If your system has an **OEM license** in the motherboard (Pro or higher),
- And the key used in Setup is **OEM**,
then Windows Setup will apply the OEM key from the motherboard during the final stage.
**What this means**
- You can install **IoT Enterprise** with its features (including relaxed hardware requirements on Windows 11 24H2 (or newer), etc.).
- After installation, the system will show Pro edition, not IoT Enterprise.
- This happens because IoT Enterprise (GAC) is distributed only with an OEM key.
- This behavior is normal and cannot be avoided.
**Fix**
After installation, switch the edition by running the following in command prompt as admin.
```
slmgr.vbs /ipk XQQYW-NFFMW-XJPBH-K8732-CKFFD
```
:::
:::tip
If you plan to use an ISO file to install Windows instead of a USB drive and want to edit the ISO file, follow these steps.
- Download [AnyBurn Free Portable](https://www.anyburn.com/download.php) and extract the zip file.
- Run the file named `AnyBurn(64-bit)\AnyBurn.exe`.
- Select the option named `Edit image file`.
- Follow the on-screen instructions and add the file in `sources` folder as described above.
- Save the ISO, that's it.

## Edition List During Windows Installation
<details>
<summary>Click here to view</summary>
- If your system has an OEM license installed by the manufacturer on the motherboard, then the Windows setup will not show the edition list and will automatically select the edition based on the license on the motherboard.
- If you have such hardware and want to view the list of available editions for Windows installation, follow the steps below.
- After flashing the required ISO using Rufus, navigate to the `\sources\` folder on the USB drive and create a file named `ei.cfg` (ensure the file extension is correct). Open this file with Notepad and enter the text below.
```
[Channel]
NoKeyChannel
```
- Now you can view the edition list and pick the edition you want from Windows Vista to Windows 11. It also helps you avoid installing key in Windows 8/8.1 setup where key installation can not be skipped.
:::note
- In Windows 11 24H2 (or newer), the new installer does not support this, so you need to select the "Previous version of the setup" option when the setup starts.
![image](./assets/select_previous_version_of_setup.png)
- If you are using PID.txt, please note that it will take precedence over ei.cfg.

## Clean Install Windows
- Disconnect all external or non-boot internal drives to reduce installation risks.
- Restart your PC and boot from the USB flash drive, typically accessed by pressing F11 or F12 during startup. If it's not working for you then Google the type of device you have followed by "boot menu key", for example, "Asus Zephyrus G14 boot menu key" and find the results for your model number.
- Follow on-screen instructions.
- Choose "Custom: Install Windows only (advanced)" for a clean install.
- Delete all partitions on the boot drive, or if you want to save data partitions then delete only the C drive and other small system partitions, and select the unallocated space created.
- Click "Next" to start the installation. Windows will auto-create the necessary partitions.

## Bypass Windows 11 Internet and Microsoft Account Requirements
Rufus offers an option to bypass the Internet and Microsoft Account requirements for installing Windows 11. However, if you prefer a different method, follow these steps:
1. When you see the "Let's connect you to a network" screen,
2. Press Shift + F10 to open a command prompt.
3. Type `start ms-cxh:localonly` and press Enter.
This allows you to continue the installation without needing to connect to the Internet or use a Microsoft account.
**Note:**
This method no longer works on the latest Insider builds. You’ll need to use [WinJS-Microsoft-Account-Bypass](https://github.com/the-P1neapple/WinJS-Microsoft-Account-Bypass) or Rufus.

# Fix WPA Registry
- In some cases, the system may have corrupt WPA registry keys at `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\WPA` which can cause `sppsvc` to not work and activation to fail, it can also cause high CPU usage in `sppsvc` service.
- If you are not sure whether you need to do it or not, you can get help from [here](troubleshoot.md).
- This registry key is protected by the kernel and cannot be deleted normally. That is why we need to follow some more steps below to clear it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
## Steps To Fix WPA Registry
- Download https://github.com/asdcorp/rearm/archive/refs/heads/principalis.zip
- Extract this zip file.
- Copy `rearm.cmd` file to the root of the C drive, like `C:\rearm.cmd`
- Open the command prompt as administrator and enter the below command
`Shutdown /f /r /o /t 0`
- After the system restarts, select Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Command Prompt.
- Enter the following command
`C:\rearm.cmd`
- If it says the command is not recognized, enter
`bcdedit | find "osdevice"`
- It will show you the OS drive letter. Use that drive letter in the command, for example,
`E:\rearm.cmd`
- Wait for it to finish. When it's finished, you will be able to type in the command prompt, If not then wait.
- Once done, exit and then normally boot into Windows.
- If it doesn't help, you can [connect with us](troubleshoot.md) for help.

# In-place Repair Upgrade
(Keeping files and apps)
---
In-place repair upgrade using Windows ISO file is a good way to fix system errors. Here's how you can perform it.
- Download the Windows ISO, preferably from [MSDL](https://msdl.gravesoft.dev/) (Select the version marked with a ❤️ icon). Make sure you choose the ISO that matches your system’s **language and architecture**.
- To check the installed Windows architecture, open Powershell as admin and enter,
```
(Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment").PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE
```
AMD64/x64 means 64 Bit, x86 means 32 Bit
- To check the installed Windows Language, enter this command,
```
dism /english /online /get-intl | find /i "Default system UI language"
```
Alternatively, you can use this command,
```
[Globalization.CultureInfo]::GetCultureInfo([Convert]::ToInt32((Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Nls\Language").InstallLanguage, 16)).Name
```
- Note: If you are running the Enterprise LTSC edition, you will need to download that edition's ISO file. Don't download Evaluation version, that can't be activated.
- Right-click on the downloaded ISO file, Open With > Windows Explorer
- A new DVD drive will appear in Windows Explorer, which means the installation image has been mounted successfully.
<details>
<summary>Click here for info: Windows 11 on Unsupported Hardware</summary>
- If you're using Windows 11 or upgrading from Windows 10, you may encounter errors due to unsupported hardware.
- To resolve this, you need to install IoT Enterprise edition which is [officially supported](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/iot/iot-enterprise/Hardware/System_Requirements?tabs=Windows11LTSC#optional-minimum-requirements) on unsupported hardware.
- To do that, open the command prompt as admin and,
- Enter the below command if you are using normal Windows 11 24H2 (or newer) ISO
`reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v EditionID /d IoTEnterprise /f`
- Enter the below command if you are using Windows 11 LTSC 2024 ISO
`reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v EditionID /d IoTEnterpriseS /f`
- Now quickly run setup.exe as described below.
</details>
- Go into that DVD drive and run setup.exe, just continue until you reach the final confirmation screen.
- Make sure it says "**Keep personal files and apps**" on the final screen. Then you can continue the process and wait until it is done.
---
:::info
- If **Windows 11 LTSC 2024** is already up to date, performing an in-place repair upgrade requires the latest monthly updated ISO.
- Since Microsoft does not provide updated ISO files for LTSC, you will need to [manually update the ISO file](update-windows-iso.md).
:::
:::tip
- If you are not getting the option to keep files and apps, or the setup is showing any error, you can [connect with us](troubleshoot.md) for help.

# Office C2R Custom Install
## Notes
- If the below guide is confusing to you then the simplest option for you is to use [Office C2R Installer](office_c2r_links.md).
- Retail Office (e.g. O365) has latest feature updates and Volume Office (e.g. ProPlus 2024) doesn't.
- Please note that in the official C2R office custom installation method, there is no ISO or any one-click solution available. Below is the simplest guide to installing customized office.
:::tip
- Russian users needs to follow [this guide](bypass_microsoft_geoblocking.md) to bypass geoblock in Office downloading.

## Custom Installation Guide
### 1- Using Office Deployment Tool
- If Office was ever installed before,
- Uninstall Office with the App and Features option in Windows settings.
- Run `OfficeScrubber.cmd` file from [Office Scrubber](https://gitlab.com/-/project/11037551/uploads/f49f0d69e0aaf92e740a1f694d0438b9/OfficeScrubber_14.zip) by abbodi1406 and select `[R] Remove all Licenses` option.
- Create a new folder named `Office` in `C:\` drive, example `C:\Office`
- Download [Office Deployment Tool](https://officecdn.microsoft.com/pr/wsus/setup.exe) (ODT)
- Copy the downloaded `setup.exe` file to that Office folder which you created, example `C:\Office\setup.exe`
- Go to [config.office.com](https://config.office.com/deploymentsettings)
- If you want Retail Office then select `Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise` in the office suites section.
- If you want Volume Office then select `Office LTSC Professional Plus 2024 - Volume License` in the office suites section. (Don't select the SPLA version)
- You can add Visio and Project apps if you need them, but ensure that [Project](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/projectonline/supported-languages-for-project-online) / [Visio](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/display-languages-supported-in-the-visio-desktop-app-a921983e-fd5d-45ef-8af1-cedf70c53d75) supported language is selected.
- If you are planning to download Office files and install them later, then ensure that you select a specific version number instead of the latest in the `Select the version` option.
- You need to configure the options till "Language" section only. You can leave the rest as default.
- Click on the export button, select "Keep Current Settings" option and it will download a file named `Configuration.xml` (If the name is something else then change it to `Configuration.xml`
- Copy the downloaded `Configuration.xml` file to that Office folder which you created, example `C:\Office\Configuration.xml`
import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs';
import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem';
<Tabs>
<TabItem value="direct_install" label="Direct Install" default>
- Open the **command prompt** (not Powershell) **as admin** and run the below commands
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
```
It will now install Office.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="download_and_install" label="Download and then install" default>
- Ensure that you have selected a specific version number in the configuration as per the above steps.
- Open the **command prompt** (not Powershell) **as admin** and run the below commands
- Download Office files
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /download Configuration.xml
```
- Install Office from the downloaded Office files (can be done Offline)
```
cd /d C:\Office\
setup.exe /configure Configuration.xml
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::tip[Common errors]
- Make sure you are entering those commands in command prompt (CMD) as admin.
- File name extensions are hidden by default in Windows. Due to that, some people might incorrectly rename `Configuration.xml` to `Configuration.xml.xml` because `.xml` was not visible.

# Update Windows ISO
Official Windows 10 / 11 ISOs available through public free links on [Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/) or [MSDL](https://msdl.gravesoft.dev/) do not include the latest monthly updates.
Microsoft usually releases updated ISOs after major feature updates, and the next one typically comes with the following year’s release.
These official ISOs work fine for most users since Windows automatically installs cumulative updates (which include all prior updates).
However, there are several cases where you may need an updated ISO.
---
## Why You Might Need an Updated ISO
### 1. Windows 10 WinRE Update Issue
- Microsoft provides official public links for Windows 10 22H2 (Build 19045.2965).
This build contains an issue that can cause Windows Update to fail when installing [KB5028997](https://support.microsoft.com/topic/kb5028997-instructions-to-manually-resize-your-partition-to-install-the-winre-update-400faa27-9343-461c-ada9-24c8229763bf) on MBR/BIOS installations.
- Using an updated ISO that includes the latest updates resolves this issue.
### 2. Windows 11 LTSC 2024 In-Place Upgrade Issue
- The official Windows 11 LTSC 2024 ISOs were released with build **26100.1742**, and Microsoft does **not** provide newer ISOs to MVS paid subscribers.
- If your Windows 11 LTSC 2024 installation is already updated to a newer build and you attempt an in-place repair upgrade using the 26100.1742 ISO, the process will fail.
- Using an ISO that includes the latest updates will resolve this issue.
> **Note:**
> The same issue occurs with Windows 11 24H2 GAC editions (non-LTSC). However, since updated ISOs for 25H2 are already available, you can use those instead.
### 3. Frequent Windows Installations
Technicians or shop owners who install Windows multiple times per day benefit greatly from updated ISOs.
Using an updated ISO saves both time and bandwidth during setup and post-installation updates.
---
## How to Get an Updated ISO
### Option 1: Updated ISOs from MVS
Microsoft provides monthly updated Windows 10 / 11 ISOs (non-LTSC) to [MVS](https://my.visualstudio.com/Downloads) subscribers.
Alternatively, you can find download links [here](genuine-installation-media).
---
### Option 2: Manually Update ISOs
**Applies to:** Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2025, 23H2, 2022
:::info
- To create an updated **Windows 10** ISO, your host operating system must be **Windows 8.1 or newer**.
- To create an updated **Windows 11** ISO, your host operating system must be **Windows 10 version 2004 or later**, or **Windows 11**.
:::
Follow these steps to manually create an updated Windows ISO:
1. **Download the base ISO**
- Get the official ISO from [MSDL](https://msdl.gravesoft.dev/) or [Microsoft](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/) (Download ISO file directly; Media Creation Tool ISOs won’t work here.) or [here](genuine-installation-media).
2. **Download W10UI**
- Get [W10UI](https://forums.mydigitallife.net/posts/1216064/).
Alternative links: [Link 1](https://kutt.it/W10UI) / [Link 2](https://tiny.cc/W10UI).
3. **Download Updates**
- Go to [UUP Dump](https://uupdump.net/).
(We are using this site here only to fetch official Microsoft update files. Generating ISOs from this site for general use is not recommended; use them for evaluation purposes only.)
- From the dropdown menu, choose the correct version. For example:
- For **Windows 10 LTSC 2021**, choose **Windows 10 21H2**
- For **Windows 11 LTSC 2024**, choose **Windows 11 24H2**
- For **Windows Server 2025**, choose **Windows 11 24H2** (the update files are the same; the Server 2025 entry doesn’t show the full list)
- For **Windows Server 2022**, choose **Windows Server 21H2**
- A list will appear. Select the latest build that **does not include “Cumulative Update”** in its name. It should be labeled “Feature update” or “Windows 10/11.”
- On the next page, it will ask you to choose a language - no need to change it, just click **Next**.
- On the following page, it will ask you to choose an edition - again, no need to change anything, just click **Next**.
- On the final summary page, click the button named **Create download package for these updates**.
- Extract all the contents of the downloaded ZIP file, then run the script named `uup_download_windows.cmd`.
- It will download all the update files into a folder named `UUPs`.
- **Download .NET Updates**
- The package above includes .NET updates **only** for Windows 11 build 22H2 and newer.
If you’re updating **Windows 10** or **Server 2022** ISOs, download the .NET updates separately.
You can skip this step if you’re updating **Windows 11** or **Server 2025** ISOs.
- Open the appropriate link below based on your ISO version and download the latest month's file.
- **Windows 10 LTSC 2021 (21H2) / Windows 10 22H2** - [x64](https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=3.5+-4.8.1+22H2+1903+Updates+x64) / [x86](https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=3.5+-4.8.1+22H2+1903+Updates+-x64+-ARM64) / [ARM64](https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=3.5+-4.8.1+22H2+1903+Updates+ARM64)
- **Windows Server 2022** - [x64](https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=3.5+-4.8.1+21H2+Server+Updates)
- Copy and paste the downloaded file into the same `UUPs` folder where other download files are saved.
4. **Mount the ISO**
- Right-click the downloaded Windows ISO > **Mount**.
5. **Set Up the Working Directory**
- Extract the downloaded W10UI zip file.
- Create a folder named `Files` on the C or D drive (e.g., `D:\Files`), avoiding spaces or special characters. Make sure you have at least 40-50 GB of free space available.
- Copy the extracted `W10UI.cmd` file into this folder.
- Copy all the update files downloaded earlier (from the `UUPs` folder) into this folder.
Your folder should look like this:
![image](./assets/w10ui-downloaded-files.png)
6. **Integrate Updates**
- Right-click `W10UI.cmd` > **Run as administrator**.
- Press **1** to select `[1] Target` and enter the mounted ISO drive path (e.g., `H:\`).
- Press **0** to start the integration process and wait for it to complete.
7. **Finish**
- Once the process finishes, an updated ISO file will be created in the same folder.
- Done!
