[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1104495, member: 32260"] This method is possible but requires more effort and is more risky. Windows is installed with disabled software compatibility checks, so Shadow Defender and any other software will survive. It is possible that incompatible software can be installed after the upgrade. This can significantly increase the chances of incompatibilities and system instability. The method presented in my previous post is simpler and safer. Instead of modifying the Windows upgrade via Rufus, only the SD installer is slightly modified to bypass the compatibility checks. So, the Windows upgrade can be done normally and SD needs to be reinstalled after the upgrade (it takes half a minute). The Windows compatibility checks will still block other incompatible software. This method is advantageous when the software does not update (the updater would require similar modifications). Anyway, using SD on Windows 24H2 can be somewhat risky. I use it on a Virtual Machine to check system tweaks and software. [/QUOTE]
