    At this point I just net user /add it, which just creates the user manually and then you can reboot and just log into it.

    It’s not like you need anything from the OOBE at all, so might as well just skip it entirely.

      I decided to make a customs iso. Not too difficult to do. Just add a unattended.xml file and boot and be done.

        Some crap I still have a Windows VM. Combine this with ShutUp10 for blocking telemetry.

          ShutUp10 is awesome. I have sent them dog treats (donations) multiple times.
