Try Omarchy Without Leaving Windows - Download The ISO And Dual Boot

For ages, the biggest thing keeping people off Omarchy was simple: no native dual boot. Want it alongside Windows? Your only option was a fiddly manual Arch install. For most curious Windows users, that was a dead end.....Not any more

So I've hosted a pre-built ISO on Cloudflare. Download it, burn it to a USB stick, and you can dual boot Omarchy 3.8 alongside Windows 11 without ever touching a terminal or needing another Linux machine. That's it. No scripts, no existing Omarchy install, no messing around.

THE DOWNLOAD

Go to no-signal.uk scroll down, and there's a free download link. Click it, pull down the ISO from Cloudflare R2 — it's fast and free. Burn it to a USB with Rufus, Balena Etcher, or whatever you use on Windows. Boot from it.

BEFORE YOU START

You need unallocated space on your drive. Either leave space during your Windows install, or shrink your existing partition through Windows Disk Management. I'm using roughly half a terabyte for Windows and the rest for Omarchy.

Turn off BitLocker or have your recovery key ready. The installer warns you about this — if BitLocker is on and you don't have the key, you could lock yourself out of Windows.

Secure boot needs to be off. There are community scripts to get secure boot working with Omarchy after install if you need it.

THE INSTALL

Boot from the USB and you get five options. Dual boot installs Omarchy alongside Windows. Remove wipes a failed Omarchy installation and gives you your space back. Nuke wipes everything and does a clean Omarchy install. Shell drops you to a terminal. Repair fixes the boot menu after Windows updates overwrite it.

Pick dual boot, select your drive, confirm the BitLocker check, set your encryption password, and the Omarchy installer runs. Use the same password throughout — encryption, user account, everything. Keep it simple.

It's a fully offline installer. Everything is in the ISO. No Wi-Fi needed.

After install it patches the EFI, you reboot, and you get a boot menu with Linux and Windows. It defaults to Linux.

WHAT'S FIXED

The cosmetic issues from the last version are cleaned up — correct colours in the TTY, no duplicate menu entries, cleaner flow overall. The BitLocker warning is clearer. The partition removal option works properly now.

WINDOWS UPDATES

Windows updates can overwrite the EFI and kill your boot menu. If the machine starts booting straight to Windows, put the USB back in and run the repair option. It re-applies the EFI spoof and your boot menu is back.

OMARCHY 4

This ISO is 3.8. When Omarchy 4 drops, install with this and update from there. I'll build a new ISO for 4 when it's ready.

THE SCRIPT

If you've already got Omarchy and want to build your own ISO, the updated script is on Git. Same page on no-signal.uk.
