RunSynchronousCommand (microsoft-windows-deployment-runsynchronous-runsynchronouscommand)
RunSynchronousCommand
specifies a single command to run during the specified configuration pass.
To start a command that needs to finish before other commands can start, use synchronous commands. To run services or commands that can start at the same time, use RunAsynchronous instead.
RunSynchronous commands always run before commands in the same pass. RunSynchronous
commands run in the user context in the auditUser configuration pass configuration pass and in the system context in the specialize configuration pass.
Warning
Do not add commands that shut down or reboot the computer; instead, use the setting: Microsoft-Windows-Deployment\RunSynchronous\RunSynchronousCommand\WillReboot.
