WinSxS component breaks in-place upgrade

Appreciated, but if custom cleanup breaks it, it's best to wait, that makes all other causes irrelevant and needs to be adapted.

Before I continue, I just realized that in your preset Host Refresh is not protected in compatibilities.
In this case it is the missing component <c>migwiz 'Easy Transfer'</c>

So if you want to retest Host Refresh dependency, please try with that component kept (removed from your preset).
You can add WinSxS Backup.
That should of course work.
Once confirmed, add Custom Cleanup + WinSxS Store, keep database and try that liter version after confirming the first.

I suggest to skip ESD compression until the end, to save time testing, effect is the same, just size-wize you can compare them at the end if important (if it works).
Right-click on the image page on install.wim and choose Convert - ESD.
Finally i tried every possible combination. I enabled combatibility - manual setup an i removed only
1. custom update cleanup
2. winsxs backup
3. component store

In every iso of the three upgrade was broken. I think that something in ntlite in combination with latest windows 24h2 is breaking the upgrade.
