Need to do this as soon as possible to preempt Windows. If you enable the "Computer Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ Windows Components \ Cloud Content \ Turn off Microsoft consumer experiences" GPO, it'll prevent Windows from installing the Apps that block sysprep. I am sitting here Scratching my head and trying to figure out a way to sysprep the machine. It really is a shame bc not every Company has the resources to use the LTSB Version of Windows 10. Yep, just experienced the same with 1709.

If you run them after the fact if leaves a bunch of placeholders on the start menu. Running these commands breaks sysprep - Microsoft sucks. I run the script as the built-in administrator before I join the domain.Īlso, don't forget to enable the "Computer Configuration \ Administrative Templates \ Windows Components \ Cloud Content \ Turn off Microsoft consumer experiences" GPO to prevent Candy Crush, twitter, etc icons on the start menu from appearing $Packages = Get-AppxPackage | Where-Object "Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection" # Microsoft Solitaire Collection "Microsoft.Messaging", # Messaging & Skype "Microsoft.WindowsPhone", # Phone Companion

"microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps", # Mail & Calendar This works for me on Windows 10: $AppsList = "Microsoft.MicrosoftOfficeHub", # Get Office
