Setting up your USB: https://x.com/ghost_motley/status/1804950177611927922

Getting the iso file for rufus: https://x.com/ghost_motley/status/1805021483892146249

Register using some Auto-KMS script, something like https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts might work, haven't checked in in a while.

You really don't have to do scorched earth and install linux. Just do a proper install of win 11 enterprise, with Rufus, and a few minutes disabling anything else you don't like. Also, use explorerpatcher https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher to fix various things like start menu, task bar, etc.

No ads, no Copilot AI, no search using bing, no telemetry, etc. etc. You can safely ignore all the doom and gloom about how windows is getting worse because if you remove all the crap its actually getting better.

A good alternative to rufus I highly, highly recommend is ventoy, basically you can run a whole bunch of isos as virtual from one usb and select the one you want at boot.

dude ventoy fucks i only discovered it this year and now I have a cracked USB stick with multiple Linux and windows boot options, it's such a useful tool for stuff like disk issues where you need an external boot env to troubleshoot/solve issues on your regular boot drive
