Dear experts,

I'm trying to capture an image that has latest applications installed, after running the litetouch script, it rebooted but it stuck at login screen, this didn't happen before. I skipped adminpassword in rules and by the way, this is to capture Win10 Pro Education 20H2. It's working fine when I tested it with old LTSB image.

Any idea what is going on?

    Hi,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    1, Have you changed the logon user in the AutoLogon properties (Click Edit Unattend.xml button on the OS info tab of your task sequence properties, and then navigate to C:\DeploymentShare\Out-of-Box Drivers\Components\oobeSystem\AutoLogon)?

    2, Please check the SMSTS.log and BDD.log in X:\Windows\Temp or C:\MININT\SMSOSD\OSDLOGS folder. For more information, please refer to:

    Best regards,
    Simon
