couldn´t find <reseal> setting in unattend file ?

[midiboy]

Hi guys,

strange problem:

After the

sysprep.exe /generalize /quiet /oobe /reboot

command in auditUser pass, Windows setup does not restart but instead the sysprep gui starts. If I then force the reboot in the sysprep GUI, Windows restarts but then stops with a serious error message: Installation could not be finished. Start installation again (translated from German).

In the setupact.log file the following message appears at the end:

couldn´t find <reseal> setting in unattend file. Sysprep GUI is started.

I build the autounattend.xml according to the MSFN guide. Here it is:

Does anyone know why it does not work ?

Thanks,

Upon reboot, which pass do you want setup to process, OOBE or specialize?

Use /OOBE to cause it to restart into the OOBE pass. Use /generalize to cause it to restart into specialize.

These options are mutually exclusive - you can only have one or the other, not both.

Here is a link to sysprep's command-line options.
