Post setup - Can we have an Adminstrative Template to enable Adminstrator account for those who dont want to create an unattended file?
net user administrator /active:yes
I dont use the Unattended page much apart from crteating a basic answer file so i dont know what the page is fully capable of.

Adding updates from the host Software Distribution folder.
Ive been fiddling around with Windows Update which i dont normally do and i want to build an image that fully satisfies WU, so thats all updates that are availible, not just security ones. Windows Update downloaded 70 updates but when i point the tool to the SD folder it reports 3500 plus updates. ON the apply page i can see better that there are many duplicates and most of them get skipped. I had a look inside host SD and there are cab files and expanded files. It could cause the tool to have a brain fart and throw an error.

How about having Host SD folder as an option in the drop down menu.
Latest online updates
Host SD - call it Host Update Cache
Combine Package files and Directory containing packages into one?

Have the tool select certain files only from SD, cabs exe's and msu's.

While i think of it could the Drivers page also scan SD for driver updates?
