WinNTSetup

WinNTSetup is a Windows installation program with a host of customization options. It works with all versions of Windows, including Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and 11. It also supports Windows Server 2003, 2008, 2012, 2012 R2, 2016, 2019 and 2022.

Unlike the official Windows installer itself, or other similar programs such as Rufus, with WinNTSetup you can customize a multitude of settings to create an ISO image that suits your needs. For starters, you can install Windows from any storage drive to the target drive of your choice. You can integrate unsigned drivers or themes into the ISO itself.

As for customizable settings, the program allows you to force some useful changes in the system. For example, you can activate the display of hidden files and folders in File Explorer without having to activate it manually. You can also force all the extensions to appear, force all the icons of the taskbar, get My Computer/This PC to appear with its icon on the Desktop, deactivate the reserved space that some versions of Windows require, and much more.

In fact, you can even disable User Account Control from the start so that you don't have to give permissions to every program you run. At the same time, it is even possible to disable Windows Defender. Therefore, if you are looking for a complete option to customize your Windows installation, WinNTSetup is a great choice.
