Hi all.
I get an error in the [generalize] pass when I try to use Sysprep with my unattend.xml file.

File is attached to this post.

Can anyone help me to find the issue?

Microsoft-Windows-PnpSysprep

The Microsoft-Windows-PnpSysprep component specifies whether all Plug and Play information persists during the generalize and specialize configuration passes.

Typically, during the generalize configuration pass, all device information is removed from the reference computer.
During the specialize configuration pass, any Plug and Play devices that are detected on the destination computer are re-initialized.
Any Plug and Play devices that are not detected are removed from the computer.

DoNotCleanUpNonPresentDevices
Specifies whether Plug and Play information persists on the destination computer during the following specialize configuration pass.

PersistAllDeviceInstalls
Specifies whether all Plug and Play information persists on the destination computer during the generalize configuration pass.

Microsoft-Windows-Security-Licensing-SLC

The Microsoft-Windows-Security-Licensing-SLC component removes licensing values set during system installation and testing. It restores the computer to its original state before the user logs on for the first time.

Important:
This setting is deprecated and should not be used. Please use Microsoft-Windows-Security-SPP instead.

I'll hope that this was edited? You should not have empty elements.

<UserAccounts>
        <LocalAccounts />
        <AdministratorPassword>
          <Value />
        </AdministratorPassword>
      </UserAccounts>
      <AutoLogon>
        <Password>
          <Value />
        </Password>

Also, why do you specify BOTH the Image Name and the Install Key? You don't need both, pick one or the other.

Thx for the input guys.
I have taken your suggestions on board.

I have changed the oobesystem pass to use the default admin account.

I still cannot get it to go past the generalize pass tho

You can try this file and checked with WSIM!

Always check your file first using WSIM.
