Hello

I wanted to know if there is the possibility of reinstalling an old unattend file from a previous version.

With each new version of Windows I redo ISO and I make no changes and I would like to avoid redoing the unattend file each time
 
There's no problems in copying autounattend.xml from an old ISO folder to a new one. NTLite will not overwrite this file, unless you create a new Unattended setting.

Before re-using the old unattended file, check that the following settings are valid:
- Disk partitioning (if you created a custom layout).
- <InstallFrom><Value> has the right index number, if you're using a multi-edition ISO.
 
ok,



But if I replace the unattend file in place, why when I run ntlite in the unattend part do I not have the information displayed?
 
NTLite will never reload any existing autounattend.xml into your editing session. That is by design, since users can add extra functions to an answer file which NTLite doesn't handle. If NTLite did import the file, you would lose those custom edits.

When you create an ISO, the copied autounattend.xml is part of the folder and is automatically included on the ISO.
 
Good evening,
there is an option that I no longer see in ntlite "Unattended - OEM SetupComplete" is this normal?

There's a new workaround in NTLite v2023.11.9515, which removes the need for a separate OEM SetupComplete option. New images built using the latest version will automatically work for all PC's.

If you load an old preset that uses OEM SetupComplete, NTLite will ignore the outdated setting.
 
Please attach your autounattend.xml (after removing any user passwords or license key).
 
This is not a valid ComputerName. You can use * but not pattern*.
Code: 
<ComputerName>GAMPLITUDE*</ComputerName>

<ComputerName>*</ComputerName> will create a random name from FullName and Organization.
