    OOBE cannot be skipped win 10


    I will describe the steps I have already done
    1. I downloaded the win10 iso.
    2. I converted the instal.esd file to install.wim
    3. I created a bootable media
    4. I created an answer file and put it in the root folder.
    5. Windows was installed without intervention.
    6. I installed Office and other applications.
    7. I turned on sysprep. - I chose Enter System Audit Mode. + Generalize
    8. Reboot
    9. I went into rundll32.exe sysdm.cpl, EditUserProfiles and deleted the user.
    10. I also deleted the user in Local Users and Groups.
    11. I enabled sysprep I chose Enter System Out-of Box Experience (OOBE) + Generalize
    12. Shutdown
    13. I captured the image using the command
    Dism / Capture-Image / ImageFile: "???" / CaptureDir: G: \ / Name: install.
    14. I put an answer file in the Windows \ Panther \ folder
    I created partitions on a new hard disk using a script.
    15. I deployed the image of Windows with the command dism / Apply-Image / ImageFile.
    16. I inserted the new disk into a new computer, Windows went up to OOBE mode.

    what can we do?
    I must mention that I used KARI's manuals a lot to do all the steps described, thank you very much.

    How to disable or skip the "Meet Cortana" page in OOBE phase?

    Hi Here,

    I need use unattend.xml to auto deploy Windows 10 1607. Need users to create local user account at OOBE phase.

    I use the following setting in my unattend.xml file.

    <OOBE>

    <HideEULAPage>true</HideEULAPage>

    <HideWirelessSetupInOOBE>true</HideWirelessSetupInOOBE>

    <ProtectYourPC>1</ProtectYourPC>

    <UnattendEnableRetailDemo>false</UnattendEnableRetailDemo>

    <HideLocalAccountScreen>true</HideLocalAccountScreen>

    <HideOEMRegistrationScreen>true</HideOEMRegistrationScreen>

    <HideOnlineAccountScreens>true</HideOnlineAccountScreens>

    </OOBE>

    When I test the unattend.xml file, after I create local user account, there will pop up "Meet Contana" page and need to click "Not now" to close the page.

    My question is that is there any key in unattend.xml file to skip the "Meet Contana" page in OOBE phase?

    I search in google and view a lots of web page, could not find the answer.

    Please help. Thank you.

  4. OOBE cannot be skipped win 10

    OOBE sysprep answer file for Win10 version 1703

    Hello. was looking for an answer file for just answering all of the oobe questions after running sysprep with oobe in the latest version of 10 with Cortana. I don't see steps to take for that anywhere online, only tutorials for copying a profile which would just skip having to create a new user. I've messed around with a few answer files I've found online, but they don't seem to do the trick. Appreciate any tips you could give me.

    Thanks! -Tim
