Note: Some SKU/Editions may not 'exist' as such but have included them for conformity.

Evaluation versions can be branded only. They cannot be activated.

Objective - add $oem$ folder to .iso /usb.

• $oem$ method can be used to apply activation & manufacturer brand to your Win10 • Win 8.x • Win 7 • Vista '.iso'/usb
• NOTE:- PC needs (Win8.x and Win10 'OEM-DM' • Win7 '2.1 slic' • Vista '2.0 slic') bios to apply genuine oem activation.
• Project includes optional Telemetry disabling, (WinTel.cmd), for all supported OS's and adds domains to block through Route commands.
• Optional Retail activation method via online, if needed.

How To:

Win8.x|Win10

Place the downloaded '$oem$' folder in the 'sources' folder of your 'clean' iso, and add custom 'ei.cfg' file to the same 'sources' folder and edit|save iso. Windows will install the edition identified from 'ei.cfg' file. (Project 'Options' folder includes 'ei.cfg' instructions). OOBE.cmd will call tool that will extract embedded 'OEM-DM' key from bios (if exists), and apply the serial during installation.
Note: Win8.x login background limitation, you cannot change system login background color to an external image.
Note2: Win10 Login background is limited to user sign off only, not system wide.

Win7

Place the downloaded '$oem$' folder in the 'sources' folder of your 'clean' iso, and delete the 'ei.cfg' file from the same 'sources' folder and edit|save iso... during install you will have option to select the edition of 'Win7' you want installed (ie. Starter • Home Basic • Home Premium • Pro • Ultimate)... if you don't delete 'ei.cfg' file, that's OK, just means whichever version the ISO was for will install by default, (Home/Pro etc).

Vista

Place the downloaded '$oem$' folder in the 'sources' folder of your 'clean' iso, and delete the 'PID.txt' file (if exists) from the same 'sources' folder and edit|save iso... during install you will have option to select the edition of 'Vista' you want installed (ie. Starter • Home Basic • Home Premium • Business • Ultimate)... if you don't delete 'PID.txt' file, that's OK, just means serial used on that file will determine edition installed.

Server Editions

Place the downloaded '$oem$' folder in the 'sources' folder of your 'clean' iso, and edit|save iso... during install select the edition of 'Server' you want installed making sure it has the GUI installation, NOT the core only version! • Please read the 'Server-ReadMe.txt' file included in the download folder, for additional information.

• Please read the 'readme' files included in the downloaded archives for additional information.
• "UltraISO" recommended to edit|save your .iso, preserving 'bootable' image.

And finally a big thanks to you for using the OEM Project and to those that give reports and feedback.

Note:

Important: If you use a 3rd party 'homebrew' ISO for installing Windows from such groups as Gen2 please be aware that due to their 'pre-activation' and 'OEM additions' this may cause your install to fail or 'hang' due to conflicts with MRP.

Changelog Summary:

+ Updated quite a few bits of code. Error checks and some routines adjusted.

+ Updated the BIOS/BOOT mode line with more accurate detection information.

+ Enhanced PID.TXT and Retail.txt detection's.

For more detailed information see the Changelog.

Got to test stage 10 as always thanks to @Enthousiast for helping test MRP85, this one was fun.

Released earlier than mentioned as only a few little refinements was needed. Mainly in error checking and a few re-wordings here and there.
