Litetouch connects to old server

Hi,

For a while now i did not use Microsoft Deployment Toolkit because the images where ft images from a VM source with Windows 10. It takes some time though to update Windows 10 when deloyed to clients so i would like to update the source images.
Done that with one image and now want to capture it with MDT2013. The thing is i start a batchfile on the source image VM that start a net use command to the server where the captureshare is and then start litetouch.wsf. Litetouch starts but very quick adter starting the message appears:

Deploymentmethod = UNC
validating connection to \\server\share
mapping server shjare \\server\share

The share \\server\share does not excist anymore because a few years ago i changed the MDT server with a new name off course, so where the text server is must be another name.

The problem is that as well as the deploymentshare and the captureshare on the MDT server are completly updated. Properties of both shares have the right servername share. Also bootstrap.ini of both shares are updated to the right username.
Als have updated the boot image in WDS although they are not used for this proces only for deploying purposes. Now how can i capture the client to MDT2013, i mean where does litetouch.wsf looks for the \\server\captureshare.
It must connect to that share to start the capture Task Sequence.
Settings.xml and unattended.xml also have the right server name.

I have also tried to update MDT to the newest version and upgraded the capture & deployment shares. Somewhere though must be a link to \\server\share which is called from litetouch.wsf....but where is the question?
