Hi @Mounir BEGHDADI ,

1, It's recommended to download latest baseline version 2203 from Configuration Manager (Current Branch) Trial (microsoft.com).

INFO: WinHttpQueryHeaders() in Download() returned Not Found (404)

2, There is a 404 issue during downloading, this is very similar to a thread below.
