    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:


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

  3. 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!

    Josh
