Storagecraft: Recovery Builder and Windows ADK

2025-01-13

As per Storagecraft:

The latest supported version is ADK for Windows 11, version 22H2 (version: 10.1.22621.1).

I recommend using this because Microsoft has updated drives from Windows 11. It also will recognize NVME drives correctly.

2024-11:

You can use Windows ADK version 1607 for Windows 10 as well as for Server Edition up to Windows server 2019.

Yes, you can use. You will need install both "ADK for Windows 11 & Windows PE add-on for the ADK for Windows 11" when using Windows 11 ADK.
