Customize Windows 10 Image in Audit Mode with Sysprep  

Upgrading in Audit Mode is now 100% Microsoft supported. No hacks necessary. No reason not to use this new functionality.

The Following Software Can't be SysPrept:
- Daemon Tools Lite, Pro, Ultra.
- StarDock Fences 3.

The reason that I don't get this to work is because they are activated onto the Main-PC Settings, so when I SysPrep this it doesn't recognize it anymore.

Is there away to Fix this, or a way to skip SysPrep for some programs?

And yes I'm using an Unattended File, most of the software does work though.

Boot Tutorial:
I love to see a Tutorial for making an Ultimate Boot discs with ISO support.
Example I have: Marcium Reflect & AOMEI Back-Up I want to make it work as one ISO.

Did you open the software before you ran sysprep?

How can I upgrade from TH2 to Redstone via audit mode?
I keep getting a message that Edge can't be opened with the built in admin account. Do I need to boot OOBE and then go back into audit mode after updating?

You're welcome. Sorry I can't answer the rest; have to wait for @Kari to reply.

Ok, Thanks for the Boot!

I run AuditMode first ofcourse then I install the Software, then I run Unattended File as Sysprep.
Ofcourse I have more Software but this are the Only four what I got difficult with.
Because they are System related so I was wondering to bypass this.

I know a Back-Up works, but then I can't sysprep it to a another system.

So I followed the old 1511 customization to a T i have created my image and that will work almost perfectly for me if I copy the xxx.wim to a flash drive media I can get it to join the domain and everything the 2 issues I run into with that is I can not use the local admin account , and outlook 2016 will not start correctly .. I believe the issue is related around defaultuser0 existing. Now moving my image into SCCM vNext 1606 none of my customization : desktop background, startmenu, ie home page and bookmarks are there I was able to login to the local admin account for a bit but it quit after applied my start.xml for the start menu. I am quite sure why all the customizations are gone and it irks me to no end i spent about 2 weeks getting things how i wanted them. Any help ? I have work arounds for most of them but that is more time i don't really have.

Sometimes, you need to open the software before you sysprep. It may need to do something with the profile. Then when you sysprep, those changes it made are copied to all future profiles. I asked if you opened the software before you ran sysprep because if you did, I would have suggested that you try again WITHOUT opening the software. It sounds to me that you just installed the software and then ran sysprep. In this case, I am suggesting you try to open the software after installing it before running sysprep.
