    • RE: Super simple unattend/customize.xml for Windows 10 1709

      @itcc I aplologize for the sporadic updates, but I have a million things on my plate and this is lower down the priority list.

      So far I have yet to make any .xml file work, even using George’s suggestions and his example file.

      At the moment, we’re living with the OOBE process, but it would really streamline things if I could skip it.

      I’ll be happy to test with your file if you’ll send it over…

      Thanks,
      Leigh

      @sebastian-roth Not yet; I am in the process on testing right now. If everything cooperates, I’ll marked as solved.

      If it helps, here is the original customize.xml I attempted:

    • Super simple unattend/customize.xml for Windows 10 1709

      I have successfully created and deployed a sysprepped image of Win 10 1709 without using a unattend.xml file. However, I would really like to skip the loud Cortana OOBE and set a few standard settings like language and timezone.

      So far, every file I try to apply (via sysprep /generalize /shutdown /unattend:C:\Windows\Customize\customize.xml) results in the standard ‘Windows is unable to complete setup on this computer’ error and the errors I have looked at in the logs don’t seem particularly helpful. FYI, I have used the xml generator here http://windowsafg.no-ip.org/win10x86_x64_uefi.html to generate the files and have run them through the MS WSIM and nothing looks out of the ordinary.

      Does anyone have a vanilla .xml that works and doesn’t bomb in Win10 1709?

      Thanks everyone,
      Leigh Johnson
