What about that Schneegans autounattended.xml?
Here we go . . .
with aggressive app removal
create autounattended.xml
If on Virtualbox
If on hardware
copy autounattended.xml and Win.iso to flash drive installer.
Start Install

More powershell magic being run
The programs were uninstalled but the shortcuts are still on start
Yikes, I can't log on . . .
OK, I intended to have a blank password but left the default "password" in xml file.
So, "password" it is then :)
Remember to delete "password" in the autounattended file if you want "blank" :)
Strange:
Some Win.iso versions won't pick up the inserted autounattend.xml on VB
Too Much? :)
