Windows 10: Sysprep gets stuck 'Processing generalize phase Sysprep plugins' Then it boot loops loading...

I am trying to capture Windows 10 2004. I selected litetouch.vbs --> provided the administrator credentials and The sysprep execution starts


while executing sysprep the VM boot loops loading files and power off.


I had created a new workbench with a deployment share but it also resulted in same scenario.


My current setup:

Microsoft Deployment Toolkit Version 6.3.8456.1000

Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit Version 10.1.19041.1

Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit PE Add-ons 10.1.19041.1

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.

 

Setup loop after SysPrep

Hey guys,

I wasn't able to use certain applications due to my account being a so called "internal administrator". I did some searching under the windows help sites and found some steps using sysprep to turn my account into a regular one and disable the administrator
privileges.

Well, I did run the sysprep with the generalize option and waited for the reboot. Right now I'm stuck on a loop that goes from selecting my country and time zone, going to selecting a wifi connection and then selecting express configurations, after that
I get some "just a moment..." and then a reboot, where it all starts again.

Is there any fixes? I researched a while but couldn't get any answers so far. By the way i can't reset the pc, it says it's found a problem, and I can access the f2 and f12 while booting and the repair options too. Thanks for the attention!

EDIT: Aparently this place I'm stuck at is the Oobe, that comes before setting a username and password.

 

Windows 10 Update breaks Sysprep?

I am attempting to image a Dell E7470 with Sysprep to upload to my WDS server.

When I run Sysprep /oobe / shutdown, it completes. However, without Generalize, I won't be able to upload it or deploy it.

When I run Sysprep /oobe /generalize / shutdown, it reports that a fatal error has occurred. The setupact.log lists that the Miracastview app cannot be removed.

I have attempted the Remove-appxpackage commands, but it states that it has been provisioned for the user but not all users. It says to attempt removal with Add / Remove Windows features, but it is not listed there.

I have tried the steps in

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...w-cause-sysprep-error-windows-10-version-1709

but none of this has worked either.

I guess the answer is to not run any Windows updates before Sysprep and avoid 1709? It appears to be bad news.

Anybody else encounter this? Any other solutions available?
