SYSPREP Issues


Windows 10 Enterprise x64

So I am using the unattend.xml file below and the command.

sysprep.exe /generalize /oobe /shutdown /unattend:c:windowssystems32sysprepunattend.xml

I use Windows PE/Ghost to capture/deploy after the shutdown.

I've had various levels of issues. Currently, the system boots, then wants to do some quick user settings then I get the error: "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on theis compuiter, restart the installation."

I hit Shift-F10, and edit the HKLMsystemstatusChildcompletion to all 3's and then it will boot. One oddity I notice it auotcreates a user called defaltuser0. I have a working local admin, and another user I left on there both working.

Here is the end of my setupact file: Everything more/less seems fine within
