as well as creating ei.cfg and typing
[CHANNEL]
RETAIL

Open Notepad and copy and paste what I posted. Save as File name: ei.cfg Type: all files and save somewhere, I just place on desktop. Copy and paste the ei.cfg into the source folder on your USB install mediaLast edited by Bat 1; 12 Jan 2018 at 11:17.

Just tried it, windows still insists on installing windows 10 home.. it skips the part where you can choose before i get a chance to click on anything. I have also tried changing the key, windows asks me if i want to upgrade the version, i click yes, windows hangs at 0% then says there was an error and i have to check my internet, which is working.. theres zero corporation from windows at this pointLast edited by Cerawy; 13 Jan 2018 at 06:48.

How do i downgrade my pro key to home? That would help me install windows. I don't need the pro features anyway.

If it insists on installing Home (due to presumably a firmware key for that edition), it will activate with that key - no need to use the Pro key.
Check your firmware with ShowKeyPlus - Windows 10 Forums

Hi there
It doesn't exist -- :
You have to create the file (use notepad) and then insert it into the sources file --that's why you have to extract the ISO first.
Then to create a bootable USB you need to create a data iso of the amended extracted iso and then use RUFUS to create a bootable install USB.
Don't insert any serial key or add the PID bit.
Cheers
