trying to create local accounts with DeployWiz_Definition_ENU.xml and DeployWiz_LocalAccount.vbs

Question

Hello,

I want the option for my users to create their own username and password and found the following post:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/cc905a03-db85-4c7b-9ca4-c9c83b083864/w10-prompt-to-create-local-user-during-mini-setup?forum=mdt

In my task sequence for my Windows 10 installation, I created a new command line according to the picture: cmd /c net user %LocalUserName% %LocalUserPassword% /ADD

When I PXE-boot I have the option to create a local account and password but it fails and the smstslog shows me the following:

I don't understand "cannot find the file"? The files are there in my script folder at the deploymentshare and I also copied the files to the LiteTouchPE_x64.wim but still gets the same error.

Anyone who tried this before?

Answer 1

nevermind, moving the command line to custom section solved it :)
