I've been working for a tech repair shop and recently we have been greeted with a large number of people that just want their devices setup. Now this is no issues, setting up a computer is fairly easy, but it made me wonder if there is a way to set up the initial setup of windows through CMD. Any thoughts on the matter?

For a fully customized setup, assemble the system with all components and use a standard username like 'admy' for convenience. Adjust settings as needed, then rebuild the image on a second machine using Macrium Reflect. Restore the image to any desired device after installation. Once restored, simply boot and wait for drivers to update automatically on the new machine. You may also consider purchasing a commercial version with a redeploy tool, though it's not essential. Avoid overcomplicating things—your customers will likely prefer a clean install eventually.

Examine the "Widows Configuration Designer" app. It enables creation of a provisioning package. You can utilize it in the following way: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows...g-packages
