    Please ignore the ei.cfg is not very important

    Oups, my bad. Probably moved the file rather than copying it.

    The EI.CFG is manly to "unlock" other version of Windows 10/11 when you have a registered key in the BIOS and when you don't whant to use the autounattend.xml method.

    So 99% (random number lol) of the time you won't need it.

    I have repackaged 5.0.4 to add back the Ei.cfg example file.

    Hi Everyone, and thank you AnarethoS for all the work you have put into this. I just ran into this issue and wanted to know if someone can help me.

    In section 12.5 in the PDF when I executed "Install-Windows 1X.cmd" I got an error saying the scanstate.exe or config_appsandsettings.xml was missing.

    Both the x86 and amd64 folder only had their respective scanstate.exe only because originally those folders were empty.

    So I went and created a blank file named Config_AppsAndSettings.xml. After that, I was able to execute "Install-Windows 1X.cmd" with no errors.

    Now when I execute "Sysprep.cmd" from C:\Recovery\OEM, I am able to make all the choices and at the end, after I choose choice 1 to confirm, I get a scanstate.exe - system error.

    it says "The code execution cannot proceed because unbcl.dll was not found" after clicking the OK button I get the same error prompt but instead of unbcl it says migcore.dll was not found.


    I am using Windows 11 to do this. I got the scanstate from the user state migration tool from the Microsoft website from the ADK tools.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello there, it's been long time. I have a big problem, I am using push button reset to create oem image. When i create and shutdown, take an image using paragon hard disk manager and then restore it to another device which hardware is exactly same as the once i used for creating image. But unfortunately it is not working because after cloning the bcd store is getting changed and cannot boot to recovery partition. Any sugestions? I am stuck here

    There must be an issue with your cloning. There's no other reason for it to fail.

    Why don't you use this feature provided by the recovery package?
    -USB recovery media creator in Windows 7/8/10

    I have another problem, if anybody can help me it would be very helpful. My first boot from Hi to All done takes exactly 10 mins i have ran timer for more than 30 times all same. I have checked logs in windows event viewer one or the other service is waiting for 10 mins like wsvsc, wmi, license activation, windows hello etc i have solved all but it keeps coming every time different errors, when i run the same sysprep from direct windows 10 all working fine. How can i reduce it back to 2-3 mins?

    But the sysprepped image is already on the machine, that one will be copied to USB, not the live install..
