    Sysprep - certain scenarios fail, how to get logs?


    Hi geeks.

    Background:
    Certain scenarios which have worked for all Windows versions from Vista to Windows 10 Build 9860 do not work in Build 9879. One example is Shell-Setup > FolderLocations which worked perfectly in build 9860 but fails absolutely every time in build 9879.

    Rebooting after Sysprep brings me here:

    No error message, just empty dialog although it clearly is an error (setup freezes, does not continue).

    Hitting Enter Windows reboots to this:

    Problem description:
    I am quite experienced Sysprep user and know how to read and interpret sysprep logs. When I now boot to recovery options I can see that the folder was created as told in answer file (D:\Profiles instead of C:\Users) and the fail happens only after a successful creation of the folder, indicating that the answer file had no errors:

    I now copy the \Windows\Panther folder content and \Windows\System32\Sysprep folder content to D: which is a separate drive:

    Shutdown, connect the drive with these log files I copied to another computer and open each log, only to see they are either empty or do not contain any errors.

    I think the reboot after the first error message, that empty dialog (first screenshot above) somehow has already reset the logs. Any ideas how I could access the correct logs in order to find what caused Sysprep to fail?

    Any comments and ideas welcome.

  2. Disable or delete Micracast Software

    This didn't answer the question...how do you REMOVE it from Win10...I must do this because sysprep is failing because miracast is not published for all users. It's the same issue with Xerox Print Experience app. Sysprep fails. Can you address that, please?
