    Is there any way to detect if a live Windows 10 install/ image is provided by a OEM, vs. being a generic Windows 10 image straight from Microsoft? I'm not talking about activation key, that one I have:
    Code:
    Get-WmiObject -Query 'Select * from SoftwareLicensingService' | Select-Object -ExpandProperty 'OA3xOriginalProductKey'
    • PowerShell is preferred language for this sort of task.
    • Need to be able to detect this programatically for assessments, as we see that Intune enrollment often fail if client is running a Lenovo OEM image for instance.
    • Will update this thread if I figure this out myself.

    Afaik, after a key is installed you can't check the original channel anymore, or there must be a history to check.

    "Generic" customer (consumer) windows 8.1/10 ISOs are OEMRET, they pick up the MSDM for setup and activation by default.
