11th Gen BIOS 3.07 + Windows 10 and (11 Alpha) driver bundle

I see that @Fraoch has encountered this issue before but I did not see a solution or an indication of later success.

I was never able to resolve this. I rewrote my Windows 10 install onto Ventoy, copying it over from a VM. I documented this:

Install Windows to USB with Ventoy

I tried out @David_Rasch’s excellent guide to installing the Windows-only Framework BIOS updater for Linux users here: And inspired by this success, I tried to run the WD Dashboard software to update the firmware in my WD SN850 SSD I have installed. Unfortunately WD Dashboard doesn’t run this way. It cannot run by command line, it needs to install to a GUI and since the Windows installer doesn’t have this type of environment, it errors out with a “this version of Windows is not supported” er…

Works fine this way.
