    @hernani In domain moves you are better to stick to the Windows world for this action. You can use FOG to deploy vbs/ps/cmd file that changes the target computer’s affiliation. You will have less issues if you do this in the windows realm.

    For one deployment I setup the computers where initially put in one Imaging OU that had no GPO policies that would break imaging. Then in the first run part of the unattend.xml file I ran a VBS script called move to OU to relocate the target computer to the proper OU. Now this was not moving to a different AD domain, just to a different OU.

    I think there was a netdom command that we used at one time to join computers to domain (not by using fog). That utility had the ability to connect and disconnect a device from domains.

    One other thing you need to keep in mind is make sure you have a local admin account on the target computer you can use if the domain move fails, otherwise your target system will be lost if the reconnect to the new domain fails.

    @RTOadmin I have to admit that I have not used the printer stuff myself really. Just trying to give you a hand.

    Have you checked the user registry for old entries?

    I know @Wayne-Workman used it in the past. Maybe he has better ideas.

    Beside that I can tell you the fog-client runs as SYSTEM and uses the printui.dll to add the printers.

    @george1421 Rebuild to last version didn’t fix the problem.
    @Tom-Elliott Exit type to EXIT give a “chainloading failed…”

    using snponly.efi fixed the problem.

    Thank you for your help.

    @Brad39413 The FOG service should be started from your setupcomplete.cmd batch file. That way it doesn’t start doing its part before oobe is complete. Just update your software or delay the startup of the fog service until you are ready for it to do its thing.

    @seppim TBH Your results do not match your subject line, but…
    Yes you discovered that bios computers need a different boot loader than uefi computers.

    bios == undionly.kpxe
    uefi == ipxe.efi or snponly.efi

    If you have a windows or linux based dhcp server you can configure it to dynamically send out the right boot loader name based on the pxe booting computer.

    And you are also correct to pxe boot into FOG secure boot needs to be disabled.

    @george1421 Hi, thank you for your reply.
    yes, I agree with you that windows 8 should be stored in the firmware, but then I just don’t understand why when we fog from win 10 back to windows 8 by the image we have 5 years ago, it then grabs the same key to every computer. ( I fog 5 computers and 5 both have the same exact key ). I tried several ways to get the original key from bios by Powershell, cmd, or even registry and nothing worked. All value is empty or no value

    again, sorry for the misunderstanding. I am a student worker and try to fog some old computers for sales. What I thought is the fog, will bring the computer back to the time before we going to join domain, and delete everything sensitive inside of it.
    I dont think we still keep the cd. But I will try to see if your way work. Thank you again!

    Just for my curiosity why not use sysprep + copyprofile solution ?

    For me depends what you want personnalize. Often just need GPO, registry, copy files etc to personnalize user environment.

    @LulaHuel While we do have this “Windows Problems” forum, it’s not quite in the same boat.

    We, in this community, have an imaging platform called FOG. Often these images might include Windows, and sometimes the imaging process might have issues with Windows, hence this naming mechanism for this topic.

    I don’t think anyone would hesitate to help you, but we generally ask people discuss issues as it pertains to them, windows, and how or what FOG may have done that might have cause it. We aren’t a general MS Windows support forum.

    Glad you were able to fix the issue and posted a solution, but how this was something FOG did I’m unsure.

    @UserBxl May I suggest looking at the BIOS . I see you captured an EFI image. Just check the boot settings on the Lenovo make sure it is booting to EFI and not the Auto setting . Also check if secure boot has been disabled.
