Windows 10: Win10 1809 broke Sysprep AGAIN.

Blows up trying to run sysprep due to pre-installed Appx packages, YET AGAIN.


I don't have the actual errors, because my virtual machines are being ugly about clipboard sharing, but basically it complained about BingNews appx package being unable to be removed due to be in a staging? I dunno. This is back to the same issues I was having with 1709 breaking sysprep, forcing me to write a series of scripts to remove every known Appx package that could be installed into a new Windows 10 installation.


Guess I'll have to dig that script back out and update it. Can we please stop breaking this?

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!
