HI Everyone. I've tried so many different methods over the last day that I'm not even going to bother figuring out what they are to list them. I'm trying to use the download from the Adobe Licensing Website which our licensing are registered under
(licensing.adobe.com) and I'm having no success at all. I know the initial prompt when you install the installer is that it asks for trial or subscription OR serial number which I'm not going to enter during deployment as my MDT environment serves multiple
clients that would use this. I'm not sure if there is a way around this or not. Looking for help. Thanks.

How do I edit customsettings.ini in the Deployment Workbench?
Deployment Workbench 6.3.8456.1000. I can find bootstrap.ini just fine, but for all the recommendations that I add different things to customsettings.ini (Mandatory Applications, for instance,) I can't figure out how to modify it through the workbench.
I look for instructions on how to get to it, and the only thing I can find is people saying to go to the deployment share properties on the rules tab. The only thing there is a button to edit bootstrap.ini, and the big field for settings that isn't actually
labeled so I don't know what it is.

MDT question
Two different questions:
I use a powershell script 'AppScripts'. It performs my installs and basic logic for type of install.
trying to all PS lines to do two things:
1) Add the 'This PC' icon to the system as it is completed
2) Place a BAT file in the system 'Startup' to run everytime the system restart.
Thank you in advance

"The task sequence has been suspended...trying to install...Windows PE." This is in post-installation, in the actual OS, after apps get installed.
I have my MDT deployment configured to install applications in the "Postinstall" section. A clean OS gets imaged, applications get installed. It works, with one snag. It boots into the OS, installs all the applications, then when it's done, I get"The task sequence has been suspended. LiteTouch is trying to install applications. This cannot be performed in Windows PE..."
It's not in Windows PE though. This is happening in the OS after it's been installed. The applications are getting successfully installed before the error message shows up. Everything finishes if I manually reboot, no errors, no warnings. But why is the process getting hung up and requiring manual intervention over something that's not true? I've read other posts where people say they needed to "clear" the partitions. I booted into a GParted Live USB and completely destroyed the partition table. This isn't leftover from some other installation. This thing is in the OS thinking it's in PE and it can't do what it's already done.

Cannot apply Updates in the correct order (The specified package cannot be added to this Windows Image)
I'm having a hard time in making my customized Windows 10 image. The goal is to start from an original Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2016 LTSB image, then add some cumulative updates.
I've added the following updates to the Workbench:
Please note that the order is very important here. To apply the RollupFix (last row), the KB4521858 must be installed first, otherwhise I receive the error " The specified package cannot be added to this Windows Image due to a version
mismatch.". Tested manually on a virtual machine.
The problem is that once I start the deployment, the OS is installed first, then it creates the unattend.xml file and starts the "Apply Updates" phase, then the error still occurs.
The logfile (no package name is reported though)
<![LOG[Command has been started (process ID 2576)]LOG]!><time="17:27:42.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool]LOG]!><time="17:27:42.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > Version: 10.0.17763.1]LOG]!><time="17:27:42.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > Image Version: 10.0.14393.0]LOG]!><time="17:27:46.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > Error: 0x800f0823]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > The specified package cannot be added to this Windows Image due to a version mismatch. ]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > Update the Windows image and try the operation again.]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[ Console > The DISM log file can be found at X:\windows\Logs\DISM\dism.log]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[Return code from command = -2146498525]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="1" thread="" file="LTIApply"><![LOG[FAILURE ( 5627 ): -2146498525 0x800F0823: Run DISM.exe]LOG]!><time="17:28:10.000+000" date="10-10-2019" component="LTIApply" context="" type="3" thread="" file="LTIApply">
So I believe the order is still not maintained and the RollupFix starts first. I've retrieved the generated unattend.xml file and the order of the <packages> section seems ok:

Again, if I install the base OS on a virtual machine, then manually install the packages in that order, everything goes fine.
Is there a reason for this?

ZTIApplication Error - Application GUID {} not found in application list
Dear All,
I use MDT to create a baseline WIM for my SCCM deployments.
I upgraded it to MDT version 8456 with PE and new WSIM.
I upgraded and updated my deployment share. Since then, Application deployments give me this error "Application guid not found in App list". I tried to install them through the wizard, mandatory via CustoSettings.ini. Same error.
I deleted CS.ini file, bootstrap.ini, appgroup.xml and app.xml from share and from mediacapture folder. It generated new ones but still same issue. Updated Share and Media content ... same error.
I deleted applications, recreate them. Same errors !!!!!
I create a new share !!! SAME error ....
One share has a full automated Customsetting.ini file and the other share an empty one to let me choose in the wizard what to do.
What am I doing wrong???
thanks for your help!!

Upgrade Problems with Windows 10 v1809
Hello to all,
i have a Problem with my MDT Enviroment and maybe you can help me with that. On my Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter Server i have installed MDT 8456.
With MDT we wanted to upgrade our Windows 7 Pro Clients to Windows 10 Enterprise v1809. Therefor i have edit the Windows 10 ISO with DISM and removed some UWP Apps, nothing else.
This Installation Media i have imported on the OS Tab in MDT and I have created an Standard Upgrade Task without Problems. For a Test i have created a Windows 7 virtual Maschine and started the Inplace Upgrade Function and the Process worked correctly.
Now i wanted to do an Inplace Upgrade for our Notebooks. On this Notebook is Veracrypt installed. I have decrypted the HDD and removed the Installation, also i have removed the Anti Virus Software, but i was not able to upgrade this Notebook to Windows 10.
In the Logs i got first a Problem with the Intel HD 520 graphic card on my Lenovo T570 Notebook. In the ScanResult.xml Log i got the Info that there are Problems with the graphic Card and the Upgrade Process done a Rollback to Windows 7.
I have removed all the Drivers and worked with Microsoft Basic Driver, but now i got no specific Error Message why the Upgrade did not work till the End. BDD and LiteTouch Log only tell me "Litetouch deployment failed during Upgrade".
Does anybody have an Idea why it wont work? Any tipps about the Upgrade Process?
You need more Information, just ask. I will deliver it asap.
Thanks for your help in advance and have a good Week.

MDT Not Auto Logging In After Imaging - Account Signing Out
Hi,
I have an issue with MDT. The imaging completes and the machine reboots to move onto State Restore however when the machine reboots the admin account does not login.
I am using an account which is created within the image and is granted local admins and the unattended.xml reflects this fine (oobeSystem > Autologon & Password) but for some when the machine reboots it doesn't try to login. When I try to manually log in with the account I set it and press enter it says the account signing out and I cannot sign in. Bizarre.
I thought it might of been GPO so Ive switched a few Interactive Policies such as CTRL ALT DEL and Logon Message to registry entries with item level taregting where not exists for folder C:\_SMSTaskSequence but the signing out is still occuring.
My CS.ini is pretty clean, there no Username or passwords in that file. One thing I have noticed is that GPOs are being applied straight after the reboot. I have another environment where the deploymentshare is identical and this doesn't happen. Lastly, the BDD.log has no errors, the last line is ZTINextPhase processing complete successfully - then nothing after that.
Has anyone came across this before?
Many Thanks,
Brad

"The task sequence has been suspended. LiteTouch is trying to install applications. This cannot be performed in Windows PE."
MDT 2012 Server is up and running. I mistakenly deleted a Task Sequence step called "Install Application" that I thought was not needed (I know I should have disabled it and tested).
I have a problem now, when I went to image a computer I did not get application list (This used to work before I deleted the above TS step) with items to check and uncheck for installation. "Install Application" TS was readded but now when I try to
image I get this error:
"The task sequence has been suspended. LiteTouch is trying to install applications. This cannot be performed in Windows PE."
I've tried moving it to different positions on the list (Higher and lower) to no avail, I always get the same error. Please advise.
-Thanks in advance!

Trouble booting To MDT, keep getting the command line
Hi,
When I try to boot to MDT to image a PC, it only gets as far as the MDT splash screen then goes to the command line, "X:\Windows\System32>". prompt. I think it may have to do with the LiteTouchPE_64 boot image, but I'm not entirely sure.
Any ideas?

Deployment share accidentally upgraded
We are running MDT 6.3.8450.1000. It looks like someone installed the latest version of MDT on their computer and them connected to the deployment share and upgraded it. When I went into MDT this morning I got "The deployment share 'sharename and path' cannot be opened because it was created with a later version of Microsoft Deployment Toolkit."
I modified the version.xml in the Control folder of the deployment share to read 6.3.8450.1000 and I was able to access the deployment share.
However, we are running into a problem with OSD. The OS is laid down but somewhere - not sure where, exactly - in the State Restore section the process halts. The task sequence logs into Windows, wscript.exe runs for several minutes, and then the Windows Deployment Wizard starts at the first screen - "Select a task sequence to execute on this computer".
Short of restoring the Deployment Share folder from a backup, is there any way to "downgrade" it back to 6.3.8450.1000? It looks like only the Drivers.xml and DriverGroups.xml files were modified by the upgrade process.

Roles and features selected in task sequence aren't checked during deployment
I set roles and features to be installed during post-install. God knows whether I'm going to have to move it around or throw extra restarts in to get it to actually work, but we're not even at that point yet. For whatever reason, when the box pops up to select roles and features during installation, none of them are checked. I checked one in the task sequence, but during deployment, it's just decides that I didn't really mean for it to be checked or something. Any ideas?

Logging into a windows Account
Hello
My windows images contain a local admin account.
Is there any way that I can have powershell login to windows using that admin account once the image is finished being applied? Then log out. Just so that the local user profile is created.
Thank You

PostInstall Role/Feature installation producing error and not working
I go through the setup, select the ".NET Framework" box at the prompt. It gets into the OS, and then halts with an error.
It's PostInstall, after it's booted into the OS. It's in the full OS. This is nonsense.

MDT wizard does not appear after PXE boot
Hi all,
I have a peculiar problem building the latest Lenovo ThinkPad T490.
Performed the following:
a) Downloaded the PXE driver and other device drivers from Lenovo deployment centre website.
b) Uploaded the drivers to the Out-of-Box-drivers folder on deployment share.
c) Completely regenerated the image and uploaded the new image on the WDS.
After the PXE boot the screen goes blank without displaying the MDT wizard screen for selecting the task sequence.
Tried to hit F8 in order to get into command prompt for troubleshooting but no luck.
Checked the MDT deployment log on the server and it shows no entry.
To eliminate any network connectivity issue, I have also created a offline build but noticing the same problem.
The deployment is working for other models of computer & laptops.
Could the MDT experts throw some light and point me to the right direction.
Thanks in advance.

MDT not passing ScanStateArgs to USMT
Looking for some MDT guru's with USMT experience here. My MDT environment doesn't seem to be passing my ScanStateArgs to USMT during OS deployment.
Environment:
ADK 1903
MDT 8450
CustomSettings.ini:
Text
[Settings] Priority=DefaultGateway, Default Properties=MyCustomProperty [DefaultGateway] 10.1.111.254=City1 10.2.112.254=City2 [City1] Deployroot=\\City1\DepShare$ SLShare=\\City1\DepShare$\DepLogs SLShareDynamicLogging = \\City1\DepShare$\DepLogs\%OSDComputerName% EventService=http://City1:9800 UserDataLocation=NETWORK UDShare=\\City1\USMT$ UDDir=%ComputerName% [City2] Deployroot=\\City2\DepShare$ SLShare=\\City2\DepShare$\DepLogs SLShareDynamicLogging = \\City2\DepShare$\DepLogs\%OSDComputerName% EventService=http://City2:9800 UserDataLocation=NETWORK UDShare=\\City2\USMT$ UDDir=%ComputerName% [Default] ScanStateAgrs=/v:5 /o /c /vsc /ui:domain.local\* /uel:30 /efs:skip USMTMigFiles001=MigApp.xml USMTMigFiles002=MigUser.xml LoadStateArgs=/v:5 /c /lac
Initially, I noticed that profiles older than 30 days were being captured and restored, which based on the flags above, should not be the case. But then one of the computers was failing to capture
the profile due to encrypted files and the deployment failed as a result. This is when I started digging in the logs and found that none of my custom arguments were being passed to USMT.
I quickly noticed the 3rd line which verified the issue:
USMTcapture.log:
Command line: C:\MININT\USMT\X64\scanstate.exe \\City1\USMT$\ComputerName /v:5 /c /o /i:C:\MININT\USMT\X64\MigApp.xml...
As you can see, only the default arguments are being used.
Any ideas?
