About this tag
The MCT tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about the Media Creation Tool (MCT) used for upgrading or clean installing Windows 10 and Windows 11. Users ask whether an upgrade is required before a clean install with MCT, and how to handle feature updates like 21H1 or 1511. The tag also includes threads about Flyoobe, a portable toolkit that integrates with MCT, Rufus, and Ventoy to bypass Windows 11 hardware checks and customize the OOBE. Additionally, MCT refers to a hidden folder in Windows 7 (C:\Windows\Globalization\MCT) containing regional themes that can be enabled or customized. Topics range from practical installation guidance to theme customization.
