Just add a "new user" within the section "User" of the "Unattended" part of nLite processing. You can give the "new user" any name and all rights you want and even set the autologon to this "new user".

This wil get you hard coded users on the CD, not the ability to choose user names at installation.
You are right, I didn't realise, that brotherik wanted to change the user name during the unattended install.

Here's how I choose my username at install and I do skip OOBE!

My method uses "Registered owner" that you specify at the start of install

and then renames the Admin-account with the specified name

It will probably just work with classic install

in CMDLINES.TXT add "renameAdmin.cmd"

"renameAdmin.cmd"

------------------------------

cmdow @ /HID

@echo off

:: exports the RegisteredOwner key

FOR /F "tokens=2* delims= " %%A IN ('REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion" /v RegisteredOwner') DO SET RegisteredOwner="%%B"

:: rename the administratoraccount

renuser Administrator %RegisteredOwner%

:: Make the renamed administratoraccount Always Visible on the Login Screen

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts\UserList" /f /v %RegisteredOwner% /t REG_DWORD /d 00000001
