Installation (Offline)

warning

Offline installation is the installation method you can use to patch installations on computers you don't have the administrator privileges on. Note that this is done at your own risk.

  1. Boot a live Windows installation, also known as a Preinstallation Environment, I personally recommend my Windows 10 PE.
  2. Download the latest release
  3. Open the patch-seb.exe file
  4. Select the partition that corresponds to your Windows installation from the dropdown menu and click use
  5. If you are not an advanced user, leave everything at defaults and click Patch
  6. Done, reboot to your normal Windows installation
tip

Remember that booting from a live Windows installation requires an USB media, the ISO and access to the computer/motherboard boot menu.
