WillShowUI (microsoft-windows-setup-userdata-productkey-willshowui)

WillShowUI specifies in what circumstances to display the user interface (UI) when applying a product key specified by ProductKey.

Values

Always	Specifies that the UI is always displayed.
OnError	Specifies that the UI is displayed if an error occurs, even for catastrophic, non-recoverable errors. This is the default value.
Never	Specifies that the UI is never displayed. WillShowUI only prevents Windows Setup UI pages from being displayed. If a critical error occurs, an error message might be displayed. To avoid displaying the error message, you can use the ErrorHandler.cmd file to automatically run a script to handle the error. For more information about ErrorHandler.cmd, see Add a custom script to Windows Setup.

This string type does not support empty elements. Do not create an empty value for this setting.
