Windows 10: Sysprep is not working

Either Sysprep is not working or the documentation is lying. It is my understanding that what ever I do during SysPrep will carry over to all new user account created from now on.This is not what is happening.I set it up like I want, SysPrep it, and then test. BEHOLD. The settings are not saving. OneDrive is being reinstalled even though that was removed. Shortcut are added to the Start Menu even though that was remove. The search bar, task view buttom, and the weather app are still showing even after being disabled. The Edge and Store shortcuts on the Taskbar came back.So am I having a proble

SysPrep Advice

Hi Joseph,

The topic that you raised is beyond the scope of support for this site which focuses more on home and personal end users. Here's what I found about SysPrep:

• What Is Sysprep?
• How To Sysprep – Sysprep is a Great And powerful tool And Easy
  Too If You Know How (Step-By-Step).

However these are old articles and the process may have been changed already. You may re-post this question in

TechNet Forums for further assistance.

All the best.

 

Windows 10 1709 sysprep fail

Hi,

I had the same problem, checked the logs and they basically said Windows was unable to remove the Miracast app.

Tried multiple suggestions, nothing worked until I found this:

Failed to sysprep and capture Windows 10 Fall Creators 1709

Basically Microsoft have pushed out their 1709 image without the Miracast app installed, to fix:

• Copy the C:\Windows\MiracastView folder from a working 1703 build into the C:\Windows directory on the 1709 machine
• Restart and then run sysprep

Sysprep should then run successfully!
