    OOBE configuration autounattend.xml file


    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to configure autounattend.xml in the OOBE part, the third step, I have looked in the different subforums, read and tried different options, but none of them jump what I need.
    I am mounting Windows 20H2 in a VDI with VirtualBox, I want the whole process to be automatic, just ask for username and password to finish the installation.

    Any suggestion?

    Thank you very much.
    A greeting.

    ===================
    Configuracin OOBE archivo autounattend.xml

    Hola a todos,
    Estoy tratando de configurar autounattend.xml en la parte de OOBE, el tercer paso, he mirado en los diferentes subforos, ledo y probado diferentes opciones, pero en ninguna salta lo que necesito.
    Estoy montando Windows 20H2 en una VDI con VirtualBox, quiero que todo el proceso sea automtico, solo que pregunte usuario y contrasea para finalizar la instalacin.
    Alguna sugerencia?

    Muchas gracias.
    Un saludo.

    :)

    Automate just OOBE setup pass of Windows 10 with Autounattend.xml

    Dear Community,

    I am currently trying to find out if it is possible to automate just the OOBE setup pass of Windows 10 with an Autounattend.xml file.

    In this particular use case, the devices are delievered with a preinstalled Windows 10 Pro version 1803. The goal is to use the preinstalled OEM image. When startging the devices for the first time, they start with OOBE. We want to automate these steps. The idea was to create an answer file which just holds parameters for the oobeSystem pass and let the resulting Autounattend.xml file be consumed from a removable USB drive.

    Does somebody have experience with a similar use case? Will Windows 10 still search for an Autounattend.xml file just before entering the oobeSystem Pass? Or is an Autounattend .xml just usable when going trough all configurationen passes of Windows?

    The Microsoft documentation was no help for me regarding this particular question.

    Best regards,
    Manuel

    Screenshot from your answer file, you've used processor architecture wow64 here:

    Only change I made was to change that to amd64, UK English keyboard was made default after running Sysprep with that only slightly modified answer file.

    C++ source code to compare XML files like ExamXML XML differ

    I’m working on a Linux project that includes identifying changes between XML files and I need a source code on C++ to compare XML fragments.
    I’m using differencing tool ExamXML from A7Soft provides tools to compare XML documents to compare and merge XML files but this is Windows application.

    Thanks.
