Hi Cam.
Thanks for your reply.
For you/any others who might have these kinds of questions/issues (I
know this isn't strict Fedora)
It appears there's the Windows data files for the ISO
It appears the windows mediacreationtool.exe is used
It appears that win11 doesn't require a key (true/false)?? still
researching this
It appears a clean usb fat32 can be formatted/used for the bootable ISO..
This could then allow for testing of installing Fedora/etc.. and
returning to win as needed..
Feel free to add anything I may have left out..
thanks
ps.. Now to get hp to lower their prices!
