NTLite settings in an image can be changed after installation?

If I make settings in an image, can I change them after installing the image?
E.g. Settings -> Windows Update -> Windows Update Service Download or Settings -> Privacy -> Allow Telemetry.
I have set these and could not find this setting under gpedit.msc.
Where were these settings changed?
 
Licensed copies of NTLite can always apply the same Settings to a live system.

WU service download:
gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Update -> Manage end user experience -> Configure Automatic Updates

Allow Telemetry:
gpedit.msc -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Data Collection and Preview Builds -> Allow Diagnostic Data
 
Thank you very much for the quick reply.
I know where to find them in the gpedit.msc.
But these settings are set as not configured. Why is that?
 
Have you confirmed changes were applied to the image? Load the edited image, and run regedit.

Look for:
HKLM\NLTmp*SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\WU
HKLM\NLTmp*SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection

I'm not talking about the live system. I think you're asking why Settings applied to the image, are not found on the installed system.

We need to load the install image, and check the registry values FROM the mounted image. NTLite loads the registry hives under the temporary NLTmp* paths for its own use (and you can examine them).
