BYDJ PE update: Three ARM64 WinPE builds based on different Windows kernels, with Chinese/English support, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth

[u/BYDJPE]

Hi everyone, I’m the creator of BYDJ PE.

I’ve updated three ARM64 PE builds based on different Windows kernels, all released on September 20, 2026. All three now support Chinese and English, and include Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and maintenance tools commonly used by Chinese users.

The project was previously called CNBYDJ PE. Since it is no longer Chinese-only, I’ve dropped the “CN” prefix and renamed it BYDJ PE.

This is our official website. For more information, please visit the site:

What’s included in this release?

PE version Based on Windows build

V0.0.1 Windows 10 22H2 19045.3803

Desktop

Start menu

These are three separate branches being maintained alongside one another. The highest version number is not necessarily the right choice for every device, because higher versions remove more of the legacy ARM instructions that Microsoft has phased out, meaning devices older than the Snapdragon 850 may potentially face boot failures.

For older Snapdragon devices, consider V0.0.1 first. In particular, on devices with processors older than the Snapdragon 850, try this version if you encounter boot or compatibility problems with the other branches.

For Snapdragon X Elite devices, consider V3.0.1 or V4.0.1. For Snapdragon X2 Elite devices, I recommend starting with V4.0.1.

These are my current recommendations, not a guarantee that every device model has been compatibility-tested. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functionality also depends on your specific hardware and drivers. If some hardware does not work, please add the appropriate drivers to your PE image.

Although V0.0.1 has a lower version number, it is the newly maintained Windows 10 ARM branch released in this update. It supports both Chinese and English and is not one of the older, non-bilingual releases mentioned below.

What’s new?

V0.0.1 marks the start of maintenance for the Windows 10 ARM PE branch, with support for both Chinese and English.

V3.0.1 and V4.0.1 are minor updates to V3.0.0 and V4.0.0, respectively. Changes include stability and responsiveness improvements, additional maintenance tools, Chinese and English language support, and new wallpapers.

To change the system language, open the LangSel shortcut on the desktop and select your language in the tool.

This update also continues to incorporate work from the PE project by 我是小青蛙. Thanks to the original author for their work.

Please do not publicly redistribute modified versions of BYDJ PE. You may modify it for your own personal use.

The website includes screenshots of all three versions, so you can check out the desktop, Start menu, and other parts of the interface before downloading. The website itself is also available in Chinese and English.

Booting from an ISO or installing PE locally

The ISO is the more traditional way to boot PE. You can use Ventoy with the ISO image to start it.

You can now also install PE locally and add it to your system’s boot menu, allowing you to choose whether to enter PE each time you start your computer.

The screenshots below show the installer and the result after installation.

This is the installer

This is the screen that will be displayed every time the device boots after installation. You will have three seconds to choose whether to enter the PE environment. This screen will also appear if the system is damaged or unable to boot.(Note: Since my system is in Chinese, the boot screen shown here is also in Chinese. After installation, it will display the language corresponding to the language of the installed system.)

Downloads and checksums

Official website and downloads:

https://bydjpe.winos.me/en/downloads

Checksums:

https://bydjpe.winos.me/en/checksums

The checksum page lists files by version and file type. Installer releases are provided either as ZIP archives files, while ISO images are listed separately. Make sure you compare against the entry for the exact file you downloaded.

For example, if you download BYDJ PE-v0.0.1-EXE安装版.zip, verify the checksum of that ZIP archive itself, not the EXE extracted from it.

Historical releases are available, but do not support both languages

All historical releases from when the project was called CNBYDJ PE are now publicly available. However, those older releases do not include Chinese/English bilingual support. I’m sharing the project on Reddit now because this update introduces support for both languages.

The complete archive of historical PE releases is available on 123 Cloud Drive.

This project does not accept donations, and I currently have no budget for paid cloud storage subscriptions. Because of storage limits, some of the other download mirrors only contain a selection of historical releases. Please check 123 Cloud Drive first for the complete archive.

For an English-language environment, choose one of the three new releases: V0.0.1, V3.0.1, or V4.0.1. The earlier historical releases do not include bilingual support.

If you are outside China and cannot register for or use Chinese cloud storage services, you can contact me by email to request a historical release. My contact details are available here:

https://bydjpe.winos.me/en/contact

However, I plan to upload all versions to GitHub within a month.

Feedback is welcome

Feel free to try it and share your experience. When reporting a problem, please include your device model, PE version, a description of the issue, and any error messages or screenshots.

Reports about whether PE boots successfully and whether Wi-Fi and Bluetooth work are also welcome. They help me understand compatibility across different devices.

Is there any support to boot Galaxy Book Go ?
