18.7.26.1 (July 26, 2018)
Create a Bootable OS USB with New-OSBuilderUSB
Migrated osdeploy.com to updated GitBook framework
JSON files used for OSBuilder Module version checking has moved to GitHub
Previous versions of OSBuilder cannot check for Updates
JSON files used for DownloadUpdates has moved to GitHub
Previous versions of OSBuilder can no longer check for updated Servicing Stacks, Cumulative Updates, and Adobe Security Updates
18.7.25.* (July 25, 2018)
Resolved an issue where Winpeshl.ini was not removed from WinPE.wim. If you have created OSBuilds with MSDaRT, they will need to be rebuild or they may fail OS Upgrades
18.7.24.* (July 24, 2018)
Windows Server 2016 now supported
Added Show-OSInfo function
18.7.23.* (July 23, 2018)
The notable change in this update is the inclusion of Language Support. For more information, see Work with Languages
Due to these changes, Tasks will have to be recreated to support this change.
DISM Image Cleanup will now be evaluated to determine if there are Pending Operations. Previously this step was only executed in an OSMedia Task, but it will now work in an OSBuild Task if there is nothing pending
18.7.21.* (July 21, 2018)
Corrected an issue where multiple Update directories were being created. Thanks for pointing this out Bruce!
18.7.19.* (July 19, 2018)
Online Documentation has not been updated yet to detail the changes. I'll work on that over the weekend. Thanks for understanding!
Modified Paths to WindowsUpdates and ServicingStacks
TestMode renamed to -ExecutionMode "Test Builds"
Operating System names are abbreviated
Windows 10 x64 Enterprise 1803 (old format)
Win10 x64 Ent 1803 (new format)
It is recommended that you rename these manually, or run it through an OSMedia Task again and it will apply the new name format, and update the Sources directory at the same time
Abbreviated OS Names consistent throughout OSBuilder
Abbreviated OS Names for Servicing Stack and Windows Update downloads will be applied during the next CU Release
Added ExecutionMode to Invoke-OSBuilder
Information - This will show the information about the selected Task without running it
Test Build - Performs a simulation and copies the output to OSBuilder\TestBuilds. Recommend to run this with -Verbose
Execute Stepped - This option will enable a "Press Enter to continue" so you can manually manipulate the process
Execute - This will execute the Task
Added UseLatestSource to Invoke-OSBuilder
If you have a Task specifically points to an Operating System (Win10 Ent x64 1803 17134.112), enabling this option will search for a newer UBR and execute with that source.
For this to work, make sure your UBR is at the end of your OSMedia source
OSMedia and OSBuild Tasks will update the Sources directory of the Media automatically. If you have previously updated an OSMedia, run it through an OSMedia Task again and it will apply the corrections.
Enabling NetFX3 in a Task will force a selection for reapplying the Cumulative Update
OSBuild Tasks no longer include SSU or CU (unless enabling NetFX3)
OSMedia Tasks are specific to updating the SSU, CU, and Sources. No other customizations are allowed. This method allows you to continually update OSMedia without having to use the original source Media from Microsoft
Tasks have changed and all previous Tasks will need to be rebuilt. Delete existing ones
18.7.17.* (July 17, 2018)
New-OSBuildTask
Removed OSMedia ParameterSet
New-OSMediaTask
Resolved issue where Task Name was not allowed
18.7.16.* (July 16, 2018)
Get-OSBuilder
DownloadUpdates joins GetServicingStacks and GetWindowsUpdates parameters
DownloadUpdates has the option for Latest and Historic Updates. Going forward, Historic will contain previous updates added to OSBuilder
Invoke-OSBuilderTask
Replaces Invoke-OSBuilder
DaRT now added to Windows Setup (Boot.wim Index 2)
New-OSBuilderISO
Initial Release
Allows the creation of an ISO of any OSMedia or OSBuild
New-OSBuildTask
Replaces the New-OSBuilder OSBuild option
CUs are no longer applied to Windows Setup (Boot.wim Index 2) to prevent a setup.exe compatibility issue
New-OSMediaTask
Replaces the New-OSBuilder OSMedia option
CUs are no longer applied to Windows Setup (Boot.wim Index 2) to prevent a setup.exe compatibility issue
If you have previously created OSMedia or OSBuilds and integrated the CU with Windows Setup, it is recommended that you rebuild your media. I will work on a solution for this issue.
18.7.15.1 (July 13, 2018)
Corrected an issue in Invoke-OSBuilder.ps1 script error
18.7.15 (July 13, 2018)

Only Windows 10 Operating Systems can be imported at this time. Support for Windows Server will be in the next week or so
UBR (Update Build Revision) is appended to all Builds
Directory naming convention convention has changed to the following format
Servicing Stacks and Windows Update Downloads
Now displays the UBR of the download. This can be validated against the OSMedia or OSBuild to ensure proper integration
