    Server OS: Debian 10 Buster
    FOG OS: v1.5.10

    Hey all,

    I have started to successfully capture and deploy Windows 11 images to and from my FOG server and I noticed that when you create a new image, “Windows 10 - (9)” exists as the default for the Operating System selector:

    Would there be any utility in changing this to “Windows Other - (4)”? It appears to be working without any issues, so I’m not going to second guess it too much, I was just curious.

    Thanks in advance!

      @danieln said in "Windows Other" vs "Windows 10" when creating new Windows 11 images?:

      Windows 10 - (9)

      This selector was put in place many years ago to deal with the quirks in the OS between the early versions of windows. While there are some minor differences between win10 and win11 disk formats the FOS imaging engine is now robust enough to manage it. So from an imaging standpoint the developers could change the label to “Windows 10&11 - (9)” and be syntactically correct. Who knows what Win 12 will bring.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!
