I think I figured out the issue. On the working scripts for me I started from a SIM created answerfile and then manually added yours. There was one line that in the files that work that isn't in yours and that is because I use the $OEM$ folder and you haven't in the past so it makes sense that...
I took out the section of creating a user because there is no need to because during setup the user signs in with their Azure account that joins it to Azure/Intune. I then wrote a powershell script that creates the local user.
My help was much easier than what you are looking at...
So here is my contribution that could help you if you ever go for the use of the SetupComplete.cmd. I usually have 2 - 4 commands that run in the setupcomplete.cmd and in order to get it to run even if you don't use an answer file it will...
Neither am I... which is why I am here. But I have been doing this for some time. When you have hundreds of machines to deal with you learn as many short cuts as you can, but over time I have also learned you want to try and keep those shortcuts in the standards that are stated.

Here is the one that I used that doesn't put the partition in the recommended Microsoft order that still works. But like I said I want to use your idea and put the partitions in the recommended order.
Out of 300 Windows machines, Dell is about 70%, HP is about 20% (trying to phase it out, but Europeans love HP for some reason) and 10% or so are Surface Laptop for Business or Laptop Studio.
At this point, we are required to be on 24H2 for SOC. If the machine cannot be upgraded manually I send them a new machine and they send back the one and I do a clean install of 24H2 and send that to another user. But if this can be solved I can work with them to do the install themselves. In...
Correct on the error that I posted the screenshot. I have ran into this error many times in the past on windows 7 so I was aware of the fix. The only thing that made me think it might be due to using your answer file is I haven't had that error come up on a machine that was installed the old...
I guess I should have given more detail. It wasn't just the unable to upgrade from 23H2 to 24H2 but also using Intune allows me to wipe machines and keep in mind I have only used your other auto answerfile on maybe 40 machines so far but I have tried to remote wipe 2 of those and they start the...
You are too kind. Thank you
So I have been using your fully unattended recovery partition BEFORE Windows for almost a year mainly on 23H2 and supporting users in several countries this has been so much easier to give them the xml file and then they just boot to a USB, so thank you for doing...
