Instructions say to run the script (after running Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted) and that you will be prompted for where the ISO is mounted.
Doing so generates 52 lines of error, the captured output is below:

tiny11maker.log

The output is below, but the formatting is a bit off due to markup:

Hi mate !
I think your execution-police was not well taken.

Try :

Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process Unrestricted

Accept the change then :

Get-ExecutionPolicy

Verify that the output is 'Unrestricted' before calling the script.

Plus, the parameter is not the mounted iso, it's the working directory of Tiny11.
But that's not a big issue as he takes script root folder if value is not valid (and yes mounted iso is an invalid value 😉)

Only thing I did differently was doing the Get-ExecutionPolicy, got different output:

Output here:
`PS D:\users\jbb\Downloads\Tiny-11\tiny11builder-main> Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process Unrestricted

Execution Policy Change
The execution policy helps protect you from scripts that you do not trust. Changing the execution policy might expose
you to the security risks described in the about_Execution_Policies help topic at
https:/go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=135170. Do you want to change the execution policy?

Welcome to tiny11 core builder! BETA 05-06-24
This script generates a significantly reduced Windows 11 image. However, it's not suitable for regular use due to its lack of serviceability - you can't add languages, updates, or features post-creation. tiny11 Core is not a full Windows 11 substitute but a rapid testing or development tool, potentially useful for VM environments.
Do you want to continue? (y/n)

`

Other than the initial errors shown above, it does now appear to be working, will update when it's complete

It finally finished,I dont think it's good, given that there is a 110k log file with lots of errors, see attached:

Log file is zipped for upload

Hi,

My bad, haven't be attentive in my previous response.
You can verify your LanguageMode. This will output your actual one :

$ExecutionContext.SessionState.LanguageMode

To set the LanguageMode if not :

$ExecutionContext.SessionState.LanguageMode = "FullLanguage"

This will let you use the New-Object cmdlet that is disable when setted to : NoLanguage

Hi, I solved it using this link. It gave me the same errors too.

#335

Hi @KeyMan98

I'm not sure to understand, when you tried tiny11maker.ps1 you get the error

Cannot create type. Only core types are supported in this language mode.

But #335 let you create the ISO ?
