Edgeless is a powerful and elegant Windows PE (Preinstallation Environment) tool based on Win10, designed to replace some Windows To Go use cases. It offers a highly customizable bootable environment with a strong plugin package system (applied by simply placing .7z packages on the boot drive), theme packages for deep UI customization, and a command-line package manager (ept). It is the first partially open-source PE project in the Eastern Hemisphere, with its original code licensed under MPL-2.0 and adhering to a 'three-no' principle: no ads, no fees, no hijacking.

Use cases

create a customizable Windows PE bootable USB drive
customize a PE environment with plugin packages without deep technical knowledge

boot a PE environment from an existing boot drive without reformatting (parasitic boot)
