How to install any version (or SKU) of Windows 7 from any Windows 7 ISO

Did you happen to grab the Professional Edition of the latest build and want to install Ultimate? That?s no problem! Follow these simple steps and you will be able to install any version of Windows 7.



1) Extract all contents of the ISO to a folder on the deskop. I recommend using 7-Zip to open the ISO up.
2) Browse into the folder where you extracted all the files to and open up the /sources/ folder and locate ei.cfg.

3) At this point, you have two options:

1. Delete: If you delete this file, it will give you options on which version you want to install during installation.
2. Edit: If you edit this file, you can set which version of Windows you want it to install automatically.

If you chose to EDIT the file, just open the ei.cfg file in notepad and edit:
Change the word to Ultimate or any other version you would like to install.

• Ultimate
• Professional
• HomePremium
• HomeBasic
• Starter

It will show as following on opening the file for Windows 7 Ultimate:

Code:
