Error description

  • A deployment of a captured machine with an own syspre.inf file
    alredy available on that machine can lead to unpredictable
    results.
    

Local fix

  • The way to avoid this problem without re-capturing the machine
    is:
    1. Mount the captured wim (dism /mount-image) on a whichever
    windows machine
    2. delete the file c:\sysprepヌsysprep.inf
    3. Unmount the image (dism /unmount-wim withn option /commit)
    4. Reimport the image from TEM console.
    Once the sysprep.inf is removed from the image, customer
    needs to specify the product key in bare metal profile
    properties  (the product key was in the sysprep.inf file that
    customer will need to remove).
