thanks so much for the reply. I'll try that. One more thing. I do have the Secure Boot error in lower right hand corner so do you think I should run the diskpart and format commands again and then reinstall the install.wim image? I didn't get any errors when I flashed it the first time.

thanks
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Kiba85:
Try if the system boots and lets you complete the W10 setup, if you did everything right it should be ok. If not, format and flash W10 again, no problem with secure boot disabled.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
yeah I'll try to format and flash again. First time it wouldn't boot after exit command prompt and restart. It went into Diagnosing, then Repair Recovery. Not sure why when I was able to get into registry the Status, and setup.exe were not there.

thanks again for all your help. Gonna give it a go
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Zaveraj:
Problem with the secure boot, start again from Windows 8.1 and make sure you you complete the step AFTER running the secure boot program, which is copy and pasting the Testsigning... line into cmd.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
thanks for the reply. the "secureboot is not configured correctly" is in the right lower corner and the command had no errors ....so you think that step still didn't complete correctly? I'll try it again tho just the same.

thanks again
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] hanzo918:
I have the same issue. I believe I've deployed Win10's .WIM without properly defeating SecureBoot and now I'm in a Recovery boot loop. I've tried Recovery using USB of the supplied Win8.1 but it didn't work.

Help.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
I thought that if you had the "SecureBoot is not configured correctly" message in lower right corner (which I have) that secureboot was properly disabled. I could be mistaken tho. Anyway, yeah my Surface 2 seems to be in the same Recovery loop.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
I got it! Went back and wiped ran diskpart commands and formatted. Flashed 8.1 again ran all commands successfully and got to point where you hit Shift+F10 and changed value setup.exe value to 3 and everything worked. I am in the process of running commands to install runtime. For anyone who had the Repair Recovery Loop....start from scratch...reformat the drive and re-flash 8.1 and you should be good to go.

thanks to all who helped and thanks to those who developed this great upgrade to the Surface rt 2.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
how did you update Windows Store and install Netflix?

thanks
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] hanzo918:
OH Man! I'd love to try that. Will you be so kind as to tell me how you flashed 8.1 again? I used Recovery mode and tried USB 8.1 that was on Mega but it didn't work and just went into Recovery again.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] dk1keith:
I formatted the c: drive again by booting the usb recovery drive and going to recovery command line and entering commands listed in Deploying win10 on page 5 of this thread: starting with 2. (a) diskpart thru (f) format. exit command line. boot the usb recovery and flash 8.1 again. once you install 8.1 continue the guide starting at Hacking SecureBoot.

hope that helps

trying install it in a Lenovo Yoga 11 Tegra 3

Hi guys, I'm following this guide for install this Windows in my Lenovo Yoga 11 (same hardware as the Surface 1).

I have some questions;

1) I have the secure boot isn't configured correctly message in the bottom right corner, it this correct right?

2) Next step is install the .wim file right? but here I'm so confused... this file is in the Chinese_assembly folder right? I just need to change its name to "install.wim" and copy it in the root folder of the USB, then enter the large command.

When I do this last step I don't get any error so I restarted it but my Laptop shows me a message "Preparing Automatic Repair" after that it shows "Diagnosing your PC" and never boots. It shows me a blue screen with "Restart" or "Advanced options" button.

Any suggestion? Sorry for my English, I'm trying not to use the translator much :D

Thanks guys, cya.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] hanzo918:
Oh man, I tried that as well, didn't work for me...

Now it's bricked even further, I get to Surface logo and spinning dots, the dots freeze, and it reboots itself after a lil bit.

Hi to everyone,

I would like to know if there is a possibility to have a video tutorial showing all the process because i don't know where to start, i haven't done anything like this before and i'd like to give a second life to my surface rt.

Thanks
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] kneider13:
I was able to install it, apparently there was a problem in the test mode, some command that had not been successful. Even with the secure boot message.

But... since Surface is not my device I have driver problems. Wifi, sound and physical keyboard do not work. This is worse than it was.

I have contacted Lenovo to see if they provide me with the official RT 8.1 Recovery and re-create the USB Recovery but from this S.O, with the correct drivers.

This is it for now, my experience with a Yoga 11 Tegra 3.

Greetings.

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Kiba85:
No you can install only software compiled for ARM32, such as Office 2013 from Windows RT and other apps that were already compiled for Windows RT. There not is win32 emulation in this build. Performance is on par or better than Windows RT.

Another newbie question that I have. Since this Win10 for RT is a ARM32 build, does that mean that I can install a 32-bit version of Opera browser after I got my RT running Win10?

Also, what version of Microsoft Edge is in the Win10 RT?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] alexenferman:
Unfortunately, no. It's only ARM64 Versions of Windows 10 that emulate x86 32bit desktop programs :(

I do not know which version of edge is installed, but the build is from 2017 so you get the idea. At least it's better than internet explorer 11 (2012)

Also as a sidenote, Camera works there is a registery fix. It's somwhere here: https://yadi.sk/d/mnCUeGKWm1XTXA

I have the same question. After installing win10 and all the necessary apps, can I enable the bitlocker on the c: drive?

Also, how do I enable the windows defender or antivirus?

And ermm, does anyone else have problems getting youtube page and videos to load?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Quiksilver:
Yes its possible to enable bitlocker.

I did this on my Surface rt (1)
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] deeptheater86:
Just wanna say that original Microsoft Hdmi, Vga and Ethernet adapters that came with the Surface work too.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] taekimon:
How did you enable the bit locker?

I got the error message "This PC doesn't support entering a bitlocker recovery password during startup. Ask your administrator to configure Windows Recovery Environment so that you can use Bitlocker."

Appreciate some help please?

I also noticed some quirks using Microsoft Edge on this Win10

1. Youtube does not load well and frequently webpage is not responsive.

2. Even this XDA forum .. does not display the sign in icon.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] zagiame:
Does anyone got port for Windows 10 Mobile for the Surface RT?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] Quiksilver:
there's a grouppolicy (Run: gpedit.msc and navigate to: Computer Configuration, administrative templates, Windows Components, Bitlocker Drive encryption, Operating system drive, Require additional authentication at startup) enable this policy and the error message is gone.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] taekimon:
Thanks for the advice but I still got the message after enabling the policy.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] ciortino:
no, unfortunately, they do not work with the version of edge present and anyway, they require plugins that cannot be installed

I am really sorry for making people really excited. Yes, it's a fake build, but making my research online, I did not find anything for ARM32. THAT doesn't mean that there is no other build for ARM32 laying in the Microsoft servers though.

[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
That's just Windows PE, you can make it display a regular-ish desktop but it won't be the experience most people would expect. You can get more recent versions of Windows PE for ARMv7 directly from Microsoft.

It probably works as shown in the video but its just 15035 at its core with a bunch of other stuff from various sources thrown in from other products (Phone, PE, IoT even I think), there is a bunch of preinstalled stuff that you may not want and OOBE has already been completed.

Sure there are but its improbable that we will get them, my personal view is that its not impossible and while I really hope we get something newer in reality its very unlikely. The unconfirmed rumour is that 18363 was the last "full" version of Windows 10 that would have been built for ARMv7 and after this its components only. The circumstances of how 15035 got leaked seem to be unique and unlikely to be replicated. I can't post links here so open google and search for "the verge zammis clark", the first result will tell the story. The timeline for 15035 seems to be that it was taken by a hacker from MS early in 2017 but not leaked until the end of 2019 so we are lucky just to have this one.

[MENTION=6124463]Qiangong2[/MENTION]- Did you install in your Surface? Will this work with Nokia Lumia 2520 which is RT 8.1 but not snapdragon???

I don't have a lumia 2520, so I cannot test. It might work, but the image leaked is exclusively meant for devices with Nvidia CPUs

so i got this work! thanks for providing infos + files

how can u be sure when using this image that there is no backdoor or anything left?

since it seems to be be based on a chinese image that we install with dism

some ppl in the thread use netflix on it so means there credentials could prob. be stolen ?!
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
It can work on the Lumia 2520, I'm not a 2520 user and could be very wrong but I've been scouring various places for info on ARMv7 stuff and if I remember right the short version is as follows. If your 2520 has been kept fully up to date then you are likely to be out of luck, one of the updates along the way permanently nuked the option of a secure boot unlock. Assuming you can unlock you will need to take your drivers from an existing RT 8.1 install and replace the PEP driver with one from the Lumia WoA project because the one for RT 8.1 won't work. Aside from that you just follow existing instructions.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

You can never be completely sure but I would say its unlikely, I don't think any credentials are included in the ready to go 15035 image. Stay away from that fake 17763 image though.

If you have Beta Archive access grab the original untouched English WIM and add drivers and apply fixes directly, I think the untouched version has been mirrored but I don't have a link to hand.

Does this support the connect feature in windows 10 that allows you to use another device as a display?
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
Are you connected to the internet? The first time the apps run they have to connect and grab a license, I will try to test Skype though to see what happens. Edge in 15035 while in some cases is a lot better than IE11 it is still 3 years out of date, I think someone is working to build a recent version of Firefox that will run on 15035 but its still in progress.

They way I'm looking at 15035 on a Surface is that its nice to see what it would have been capable of but its never going to be a daily driver. If a newer build leaks then we might get a better experience but its still not going to be suitable for daily use, if the information I saw was right then even the most recent complete build for ARMv7 is possibly going to be older than 2 years.

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

It does and it works very well when I tested it on a Surface 2. I tested with a Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter v2, the hardware and the corresponding app work fine with 15035.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] andPS2:
mmh i also got the message in the other thread (appstore) about the internet

i can browse fine in internet explorer and edge

but i cant disable the firewall it seems it is a group policy

i also cant connect to it when turning remote desktop on or tightvnc

cant even ping it

p.s. even stranger when checking with gpedit it says not configured

outgoing connections are allowed though only incoming are blocked

P.S. i reapplied the windows 10 image and this time it works!!
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] HayaThere:
Thanks for the response

What is the adapter for? How does it work?

I wasn't clear about this but I would like to use the surface as the display for another device.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
I'm not sure if it will do that.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] HayaThere:
Thanks for the help anyway. The wireless display adapter uses miracast, so I think the surface RT will be able to use miracast with windows 10.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
As far as I can tell 15035 is missing the components (Microsoft.PPI.Projection) that would allow projection to it, looks like its outgoing only. I will see if there are options to salvage the missing bits from another source, I'm pretty sure Lumia phones don't have it but maybe IoT images do.

EDIT: I did track down the missing bit from an IoT image (it does not work for me but it does do something), I've attached the file. Extract the zip to:

c:\program files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.PPIProjection_cw5n1h2txyewy\

Run the following in PowerShell:

And finally reboot.

After reboot the "Projecting to this PC" option will appear under Settings > System and you can configure it. There is a big red warning when run on Surface that the device might have problems because the hardware was not designed for projection (I presume the receiving end). After this is done my Lumia phone detected the Surface and tried to connect, the app launches but then just displays nothing.

The app was salvaged from an IoT image of Windows 10 17763 so maybe there is something else missing from 15035 or maybe its just too new to run on 15035, of course the big red warning might be right too :) there is likely to be more to this than I know too and I pretty sure some sort of resources file is missing - the app displays no text.

Before I forget, I disabled the pin protection for my quick test.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] HayaThere:
Wow, thanks for trying. I guess that makes sense because there are probably no drivers made for the hardware. Guess all I can use this thing for in 2020 is Netflix and remote desktop.

i did apply the win10 image again and this time all the apps are working!

i even got the old skype app to work with an old skype login - seems to work! -> will have to do a testcall later with another use

couple of issues i still have with this image:

1) after start i always get the Error "Message Windows created a temporary paging file" but i cant fix it following

https://softwarekeep.com/help-center/how-to-fix-the-windows-created-a-temporary-paging-file-error

2) after turning on remote acess i cant access it from another computer

strange thing is Windows Firewall with Advanced Security says some settings are controlled by group policy

yet in gpedit.msc Windows Firewall State is not configured for any profile

i can enable all the incoming rules for remote desktop but cannot connect

i cant even ping the ip of the tablet

can you guys help me out with these issues?

p.s. on thing i'm really missing is ClassicShell (now called OpenShell)

the version for Windows 8.1 doesnt work unfort.
[Windows RT Development and Hacking] jwa4:
1. The paging error I have not seen myself. Have you made any changes to the settings after setup?

2. The RDP thing... I've forgotten where I read the following but if I find it again I will confirm. I think I read something along the lines of builds for this architecture (ARMv7) having some holdovers from RT due to the way the RT lockdowns were implemented. When Windows 8 RT was being locked down it was not done by SKU but rather by architecture (ARMv7), so while the leaked client build of 15035 is not RT it still has some of restrictions of RT. This is the reason we can't have user defined programs that run at start-up on 15035 and it may also be why incoming RDP connections are not working.

EDIT: Found the chat where I saw it, the general description is right but the chat only mentions the start-up thing and does not mention RDP. Given the restrictions in RT though its not a massive leap to conclude incoming RDP is disabled for the same reason.

3. I am not familiar with OpenShell, if its open source it might be possible to build it for ARMv7 but that's beyond my abilities.

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

Np. It might still just be a warning, the only thing I can find for sure is that it would not support the receipt of protected content (No HDCP). Its still possible I've just missed something or the app is just too new for 15035 but I'm out of ideas :)
