Sysprep catastrophic failure :(
install untouched iso, update after 1st logon. if i install updates in groups of 10 sysprep fails. if i install updates individually and restart as needed sysprep is successful. anyone know why sysprep would fail?
 
Some updates need a reboot. Wouldn't that be it? And for some updates like IE11 a certain order needs to be followed.
 
AeonX this is my basic(not EOL) updates list. this lot get manually installed in (very)strict order.
id do the later updates in batches of 10 so i think you got it in that updates must reboot individually which when i do that that takes time but sysprep works. this list seems fine, i dont have any problems at all. i will update this list to take into account a newer SS. all my updates are installed by their build date(i open the msu's). it only fails when i do them in batches. im thinking that batches gives 7 and sysprep brain farts :(

if i remember correctly i had this problem doing batches on 8.1(70+/- updates) but not with w10 1809.

Sysprep must be done immediately after a restart. If the system has been running for any period a maintenance task might be running and using files which will cause capture to fail.
 
Windows 7 Professional SP1 EN-US 64bit, updated with IE11 and .Net 4.8, updated to EOL, capture and deploy.

its captured something using this
Code:
Dism /Capture-Image /ImageFile:D:\install.wim /CaptureDir:c:\ /Name:"MININT-QV022F9"
but its only 10mb.

diskpart is showing "on computer: MININT-QV022F9
no drive letters, nada.
 
Code:
Dism /Capture-Image /ImageFile:D:\capture\install.wim /CaptureDir:c:\ /Name:"MININT-QV022F9"
