Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22000.160 | Windows Insider Blog

ISOs now available

Today we are releasing the ISOs for Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 22000.132 to our Windows Insider Preview Downloads page. You can use these ISOs to do a clean installation or in-place upgrade.

As you use these ISOs to install Windows 11, you will go through the new Windows 11 setup experience (often referred to as the “out of box experience” or OOBE for short) which is designed to build excitement for Windows 11 right from the moment you turn on a new Windows 11 PC for the very first time. Based on your feedback, we have added the ability to name your PC during the setup experience too. After running through the setup experience, the Get Started app is a new first run experience app that will help you quickly get setup on a new PC. Try these things out and let us know what you think!

    Let’s take this another way.

    The existing of this thread indicates a need for a specific distribution channel. A need that is not being met by current policies.

    Instead of continuing to double down on those policies why not listen to customers and work to meet their needs? Otherwise the participants on this forum as well as journalists will continue to be frustrated.

    Creating an iSO from a current build is a process that can be automated…. Canonical does that with Ubuntu. If a company that only has a fraction of the budget can figure out how to release daily ISOs for ARM and x86, surely Microsoft can figure it out as well.

    No doubt MS will release ISOs of W11 in the near future but Adguard and UUPdump sites provide ready made unofficial ISOs you can try right now.

    On the Windows Insider page I can only see W10 ISO's. MS need to release W11 ISO as well. Two very important reasons for this is;

    • There are unofficial ISO's in the wild, and these can be used to infect users computers with malware.
    • After upgrading to W11 the computer was bricked in that the drives became unavailable to the OS after update. Most likely caused by W11 not keeping the RAID (Asus X570 Prime) drivers. So to be able to install Widows 11 I need to load the drivers during initial setup, and having bricked my install having to revert back to W10 is anoying. Also, having the ISO I could actually test if the RAID drivers would work at all, and give feeback to MS. If not, this could easely happen again later.
