PC0001 is a domain member computer running a previous version of Windows that is going to be refreshed to Windows 11, with data and settings restored. MDT01 is domain member server that hosts your deployment share. DC01 is a domain controller for the domain. For more info on that scenario, see the USMTOfflineMigration property on the MDT resource page.įor the purposes of this topic, we will use three computers: DC01, MDT01, and PC0001. MDT also supports an offline computer refresh. In this article, the computer refresh will be done while the computer is online. You can also use this procedure to reinstall the same OS version. The computer refresh scenario is a reinstallation of an updated operating system on the same computer. This topic will show you how to use MDT Lite Touch Installation (LTI) to upgrade a Windows 10 computer to a Windows 11 computer using the online computer refresh process.
