Hi, first time trying your w11 version, good work, just one issue... i thought i could enable defender later on but i can't. Is there something i'm missing or do i have to reinstall w11 ?

if i read his post correctly, the issue isnt his cpu. during the installation process it gets to a point where you select the drive you want to install windows on. the installer isnt able to see his store drive so its asking to load a driver to be able to see the storage drive.

Yeah it's not my CPU. . . My integrated storage isn't recognized. I have a laptop with the storage drive integrated into the motherboard.

I am not sure if you can run this on Optimum X-Lite.

Best bet is to reinstall Optimum and this time keep a look out for the Enable Defender before completing . It's at the very beginning of install process.

How are things going for the Optimum users? Mine's running fine.

Yes, I used The Windows Download Catalog and it worked.

They're on X-Lites download page too. No need for catalog, but that's OK too.

I still can't run it on my laptop. It won't install due to that my storage is integrated storage.

It should. Just like any other USB installation.

Nope. It keeps coming up with something about "can't detect the driver" or something like that. I made a post about it several weeks ago

Please try again and post screenshots of any errors. Your post is too vague for anyone to diagnose the problem.
