Can the admin user access that file path? Have you tried storing that file somewhere else to confirm? Mine is https://github.com/blabley/AutoUnattend/blob/master/indexGB_EFI - autounattend.xml, I remember there is a character limit but can't remember how many. This is why i've used the short codes.

Oh, that was an old topic... Only just got the notification. LoL

I find SSD is more of an impact than more ram, done plenty of cheap/old laptops recently for helping out local people. Last machine was a Lenovo dual core i3, 4Gb, 120SSD. I have a custom install to mean I spend as little time as possible on these, it does a basic install then sets up the laptop with chocolatey, installs office (often they get a licence from school), chrome and Google drive. Then sets power settings to shutdown on regular basis, and auto update apps once a month. Then few tweaks not listed publicly (yet, some are on my GitHub) are removing services not needed, crap and generally removing prettiest thing's. I'm no Dev by any sense so anyone viewing my code please allow some bad programming, lol

Sure you Google'd this as well, but yes you can. Just look https://www.askvg.com/how-to-prevent-or-skip-feature-update-installation-in-windows-10/

Did you get sorted? I've attached mine for Home and LTSB as a referance

Nice one cheers jaclaz! Will see what i can sort out

Yeah, that's what got me onto the idea... For good size roll out's of many pc's i could use that in a VM. But i'm thinking of just the one and two installs

I've looking at options now that it's time i automated my Windows 7 installs. I had done a lot of XP but only just getting round to doing 7 UA. One of my thoughts is to use a FTP or WebDAV site to host the application install files, scripts etc and just have the bare-bones on DVD. Like many had with the application disk for XP. What do people think of this idea? From what i've started looking at, I would need to install an app (like FtpUseInst for ftp) then start the install... I know the most major issue would be speed, but it would mean things would always be up-to-date and anyway it's an auto install disk so it'll be started then forgotten about...
