Well Done Tito, it is always great find new tools on MDL, i appreciate your hard work !! even i will never use Windows 8 EHM... can you add option to upgrade to Windows 7? just joking, added to my collection anyway
Very cool application. I like of batch scripts also, was the first programming mode that I learned in my life.. On the next versions you can add the support for Windows 7 / Vista detecting what the registry entry by kernel var on registry (6.0~6.2)...
Thanks... but there is some checking Code: REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v CurrentVersion | FINDSTR 6.2 >NUL IF ERRORLEVEL 1 cls & echo Supports only Windows 8 RTM!!! & ping -n 5 127.0.0.1 >nul & goto MAINMENU
I tried your downgrader.. going back down from MCE to Windows 8 pro.. On one test case, running the exe even in admin mode didnt work, as when i put in the win 8 pro media, it only had the option to just save files (no in place upgrade).. So I had to run the registry file manually. In the other case, in a VM.. it worked fine.. however, after rebooting and "upgrading", the start screen is mangled.. half of the tiles are blank and the ones that are there have "appextravel" and "microsoft.xbox" and "appexmaps" and do not work if clicked.
Tried to downgrade from Windows 8 Pro with Media Center to Windows 8 Core but it does not downgrade. Activation lost due to upgrading with the key available everywhere.... Is there a way to get out of this mess, as it does not accept my genuine msdn key for Windows 8 core, it requires another media center key which is not available...
Thats weird None of my testing shows this type of errors. After downgrading, try to reset the system.
