RunAsynchronousCommand (microsoft-windows-deployment-runasynchronous-runasynchronouscommand)
RunAsynchronousCommand specifies a single command to run during the auditUser Configuration Pass or specialize Configuration Pass.
To run services or commands that can start at the same time, use asynchronous commands. To run commands that need to finish before other commands can start, use RunSynchronousCommand instead.
RunAsynchronous commands run in the user context in the auditUser Configuration Pass and in the system context in the specialize Configuration Pass.
