CTOnews.com addition to Windows, Microsoft provides a range of deployment tools and validation tools for developers, hardware or software providers, such as DISM, WinPE, Factory OS, etc., including a Windows 11-based validation operating system, namely Validation OS.

Deskmodder developers found that Microsoft quietly updated Validation OS based on version 22621.1702 without any announcement, only 340 megabytes in size, in line with the May 2023 security update, which was still 22621.1 a few days ago.

CTOnews.com cautions that this lightweight operating system is a platform designed for hardware or software vendors, developers and technicians to help diagnose and mitigate problems, and is not suitable for ordinary users.

VALIDATIONOS.iso contains ValidationOS.wim, so it doesn't start like a normal ISO, but the ProgramData, User, and Windows folders are also contained in two folders in *.wim.

Of course, whether you're booting a verification OS from a hard drive or applying an image to a device, you need to create a bootable WinPE drive first.

Microsoft Validation OS is a lightweight, fast, and customizable Windows 11-based operating system that you can use on the factory floor to diagnose, mitigate, and fix hardware defects in Windows device manufacturing. Validation OS launches into a command-line environment to improve reliability on the factory floor and support running Win32 applications, smoothing the transition from early hardware start-up to retail OS and application development.

Pexels Custom Verify OS image Once you have it, you can use it to boot your computer. You can create and use bootable USB media and run the verification OS from RAM, or you can apply the image directly to your computer's hard drive.

To set up the environment to create a bootable, validated OS environment, a technician computer with the following conditions is required:

Install the latest Windows Assessment and Deployment Toolkit and Windows PE Add-ins

Custom Validation OS .wim Image

USB drives you will use:

Create bootable WinPE media

Store attachments that can be used during validation OS deployment
