+reproduce = """1. Grab Windows 11 23H2 ISO from https://www.microsoft.com/en-Us/software-download/windows11 using either Media Creation Tool or directly and save it under C:\\\\windows11_23H2.iso
+2. Download QEMU 9.0 from https://qemu.weilnetz.de/w64/qemu-w64-setup-20240423.exe and install it into C:\\\\Program Files\\\\qemu
+3. Make one merged EFI file from two ones bundled in QEMU 9.0 (merged EFI is the only working option for edk2 EFI on windows host): `cd /d C:\\Program Files\\qemu\\share`
+
+`copy /B edk2-i386-vars.fd + edk2-x86_64-code.fd edk2-x86_64.fd`
+
+4. Run this command:
+
+`qemu-system-x86_64.exe -accel whpx -bios share\\edk2-x86_64.fd -cpu Westmere,aes=on,avx=on,sse4.1=on,sse4.2=on,ssse3=on,x2apic=on,xsave=on -machine q35 -m 4096 -cdrom C:\\windows11_23H2.iso`
+
+5. Press any key once you see "Press any key to boot from CD..." and wait until Windows Setup suggests to opt for language and currency.
+6. Click red "X" close button inside Windows Setup and confirm your choice when Windows Setup asks you to.
+
+Windows Setup sends a reboot signal to the underlying hardware and Qemu freezes."""
