New Update Flyoobe (formerly Flyby11) - Windows Setup Assistant

Flyoobe (Flyby11) version 1.21

What’s new​

  • The new design guideline has been refined again to better fit into the Windows 11 ecosystem. Many smaller bugs have been fixed, and this part is now already out of Preview.
    (Dark mode is not available yet – I still need to decide whether to slightly dim the whole UI or allow a proper switch. This will take a bit more time.)
  • The patch functionality for unsupported hardware – the true legacy of the original Flyby11 – was once fully integrated into Flyoobe. It has now been decoupled as a separate process to keep the EXE smaller..
    The patch option has of course not disappeared – it has been simplified even further and now lives on as Flyby11, both inside and outside the app ;) Flyby11 can no longer be started standalone. It can only be launched directly as a process from Flyoobe unless you use the totally professional flag "Flyby11.exe --f-u-tpm" (The file Flyby11.exe is located in the app folder of Flyoobe)
    (Yes, that' exactly what you think it means. I love you, TPM… not.) Check out the intro video!
 
Flyoobe version 1.22

What’s new​

  • Streamlined the Bee-UI to make it lighter, faster, and more responsive
  • Updated the Upgrade Bypass Assistant (Flyby11.exe helper, now v3.12) with interactive help shown as soon as actions are triggered, one of the most requested features. Bonus: there’s also the totally professional command line flag
    Flyby11.exe --f-u-tpm
    (Yes, thats exactly what you think it means. I love you, TPM… not.)
  • Updated CpuCheckNative.dll to improve hardware requirements detection
  • Fixed a critical DPI scaling issue at 125% where navigation bar fonts appeared pixelated and oversized
  • Improved the AI feature toggle for smoother control
  • Improved the offline account bypass for a more seamless setup
  • Improved the Extension Store with better stability and integration
  • Expanded detection of unwanted apps to remove even more clutter
  • Code further simplified, optimized, and refactored. If you know me, you know I'm a minimalist (This build comes from a separate branch with the new Bee-UI.
    The code has not yet been merged into the main GitHub branch)

Note on Flyby11 Classic​

Flyby11 Classic is becoming outdated and will no longer be promoted in future GitHub releases.
Since I'm no longer maintaining the Classic version and with mounting issues around ISO mounting and hardware checks I strongly recommend switching to Flyoobe. Flyoobe performs the same checks internally (so you won't even notice them), and inside Flyoobe > app you'll find the updated Flyby11.exe v3.12.
This version can either be launched standalone with the parameter mentioned above, or directly from within Flyoobe.
 
Flyoobe version 1.23

What’s new​

  • Added support for Windows 11 25H2 (app now runs smoothly on the new release)
  • New extension script to upgrade to Windows 11 25H2 via the enablement package (with info, compatibility check and download options). This is an optional helper for users who prefer a simple way to activate 25H2 as many systems are already ready for the update without requiring a full ISO upgrade. The script can be found under (Setup) Extensions > Windows 11 25H2 Enablement Package or by searching for it
  • Setup extensions improved: script output can now be viewed in the internal log window
  • UI refinements: new Flyoobe icon added to the main UI (top left), click opens app info & settings
  • Extension management moved into the More menu (top right) for easier access
 
Flyoobe v1.24

What’s new​


Sprint 21: Codename Loki / Wingman Mode

This sprint is focused on the internal OOBE pages: refined, extended, and with Loki finally unlocked for general use.
As a result, features that were previously hidden behind my own test flags are now live. Existing OOBE pages have been significantly enhanced, not newly introduced.

  • New, vibrant "Bee Fly-Through" app icon with thin honeycomb lines
  • Improved Startsite, Real Default Browser Setter, More powerful extensions, Instant Debloater, Copilot Reality Check, Privacy Scanner, and OOBE Replay now ship with broader coverage, better defaults, and a smoother flow
  • The Windows 11 25H2 enablement package is now better integrated. Activation is simpler and more prominently surfaced in the Dashboard
  • The extensions area has been upgraded and many scripts reworked
  • Finalized placement of the App/Settings entry: it now lives in the right-hand More menu, with an improved presentation
  • Updated Flyoobe's internal Upgrade Assistant (Flyby11)
  • Improved live log viewing during extension processing
  • UI subtly optimized again (font smoothing)
 
Flyoobe v1.25

What’s new​


  • OOBE optimized further for Windows 11 25H2, with extended "debloat" routines targeting AI components, bundled apps, and the overall user experience
  • Navigation now starts with a lightweight Windows 10–style flow focused on upgrades or reinstalls; once switched to Windows 11, the full OOBE navigation is unlocked
  • General UI optimizations and improved color harmony across all OOBE panels. Unlike the Windows 11 OOBE, which leverages WebView2 to render its HTML/CSS/JS-based interface, this app is fully native, so no Webview2 engine, no Chromium layer, just pure system-level rendering. Yet some users still say it feels suspiciously webby 😄
  • Added a navigation collapse feature so the main panel can now go full-screen via the toggle button next to the "More" menu
  • Improved notification area for better clarity and consistency
  • Core integration of PowerShell extensions optimized for faster and cleaner execution
  • Added "Windows Update Tamer" extension, a new tool to manage Windows 11 updates directly from Flyoobe. It allows pausing or resuming updates, disabling automatic updates, setting an extended pause period (up to 10 years), and restoring default behavior
 
I installed Windows 11 25h2 the other day, but with Flyoobe version 1.0.104, and it worked perfectly.
Flyoobe version 1.25 has too many features, and I can't find how to install Windows 11 25h2. That is, they've complicated the user interface, and it's only available in English. Back in the day, classic Flyoobe 11 was very easy.
 
Flyoobe v1.30

What’s new​

  • New clean and logical menu structure following Microsoft’s UI guidelines. The navigation is now divided into Install Operating System and Setup Operating System. Flyoobe is growing up
  • Added a Winpilot button next to the Flyoobe branding in the ToolStrip menu. Winpilot acts as an intelligent setup assistant that guides the user and offers help during the process. If the name sounds familiar, yes, it's my old project. Winpilot now lives on inside Flyoobe as the local version of what Windows Autopilot does in the cloud. Automated setup might become a bigger topic in the future.
  • Improved Extension integration in the navigation under “Finalize Setup” Extensions are now organized by category, and the Post-Setup section is its own dedicated extensions group
  • Fixed a network OOBE bug where more than one network could be marked as connected
  • Fixed an installer issue that could prevent some apps from installing correctly
  • Fixed two small DPI scaling issues.
  • Removed several test flags used for Nightly builds
    (The next Nightly is coming soon)
  • Various small UI fixes and layout adjustments
  • Minor efficiency improvements and smoother navigation
