So I created a NTLite install ISO that works, and I would like to customize an installed build as I wrote above and create new install_wApps ISO. should I have replaced the new install.wim in the original windows ISO or the one I built in NTLite? I then used Sysprep /generalize /oobe /shutdown command line as an admin (I also tried with the Sysprep non-command line buy running as administrator way), then booted to Hirin's boot CD and used dism to create a new install.wim and use AnyBurn to replace the install.wim to the original ISO. I then want to build a new install ISO with those apps, installed software, and some settings. I realize some setting will go to default when a new user is created. My goal is to then create a Windows 11 build with updates, some installed software, some portable apps put in the /default/roaming dir, and some settings. I am pretty sure my NTLite Install.ISO will be ok although I am not sure if I should I should delete OOBE (or not) from it. Is that the OOBE, or am I misunderstanding? After installation, I was always prompted to a new user account. As it was, even deleting OOBE from the NTLite build did not seem to make much of a difference. I know "I seen it on the internet" doesn't get a lot of credibility. Since I had inconstant problems with the new user process, I then tried to build an install ISO deleting OOBE. Some of my attempts installed, but looped somewhere after I put in the new user info to the install on the computer. Like I said, I created a new install image (ISO) from NTLite that has several changes as far as privacy is concerned. I realize a new user account will have some of the settings to default, but the results I got were AWESOME and will save a LOT of time when I install or reinstall to my 4 computers if I can get past question 4, My best attempt at a custom image did save all of my installed and portable app and most settings. I am having fun playing with all of this. So, is it possible to create a custom image without current created user (other then "default") and not need to press Ctrl-Shift + F3? Also if the computer that I Sysprep'ed has never been online, I usually had less problems.Ĥ. I later found that Ctrl-Shift + F3 stabilizes those new user screens. The results were not consistent, but most time I got an install with the new user name. Sometimes it retains the info I entered, sometimes not. My new install image does install, but when I get to the Enter New User Name, Password, etc, most times that process loops to the beginning. Shouldn't "/Generalize" create the image without the original user?ģ. I just want to create a new user and use the data in the default\roaming dir rather then create one after the install and then delete the existing one. I am not opposed to my new image using my installed user account, OR ask for a new name and password (preferred). I assume the screens where you enter the new user name, passwords, etc is the OOBE. When preparing my install for an image, obviously there is a user (me) logged in to use Windows. I can check the top box and it checks them all. When NTLite lists the updates, some are checked by default, but some are not. I ran DISM to create a new install.wim and used AnyBurn to create a new ISO from the original one with the new install.wim replacing the original.also so far so good.Īll of that was from guides and youtubes. After Sysprep was run and the machine shutdown I rebooted to USB Hirin's boot CD. I ran Sysprep with "/generalize" to create an image with the apps. I even made a folder there with some notes and such for me to use after the install.so far so good. I also copied some apps that work in "portable" mode to the default\roaming dir. I then tried to lock down more privacy settings (OOShutup) after the install and add apps with NINITE. I made several other setting changes mostly for privacy.and the ISO installed! I was able to add updates and drivers too. I have created an ISO that has EDGE, SmartScreen, and OOBE removed. I am testing on my two PC desktops, not in a virtual machine. I have been playing around with good results. NTLite is a great program and easy to understand. I am new here and I bought the license for home use.
