    VHD is created using VirtualBox, there is no other way to create proper image. Everything should work as is preconfigured in current package. Simply keep VirtualBox installed thats all. XP2ESD does everything automatically. At the end of process there is no VHD as it’s deleted when it’s not needed.

    That explain also other errors. I'm reading "Administrator" account localized name here. I will see what can I do in German ISO. Hopefully there exist another file with this settings. Otherwise I will set it to "Administrator" if this file doesn't exist.

    Code:
        REM Get Administrator Account name
        expand "%~dp0_output\i386\DEFLTWK.IN_" "%~dp0_output\i386\DEFLTWK.INF" >nul
        for /f tokens^=2^ delims^=^" %%i in ('"type "%~dp0_output\i386\DEFLTWK.INF" | findstr /b "SceInfAdministrator""') do set AdminAccount=%%i
        del /q /s "%~dp0_output\i386\DEFLTWK.INF" >nul

    I hope whole process works without side effects, but to be clear in all scenarios I will review it soon. So keep watching this topic :)

    i previously enabled the administrator account, and tried again, with windows xp home, same effect.
    Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.
    C:\XP2ESD_v1.5.6\_output\i386\DEFLTWK.INF konnte nicht gefunden werden.

    The Windows XP Pro works even though the vhd is not mounted, seems like capturing is enough.

    Tonight I will install Windows XP Pro on my computer to test if everything works.
    I still need a driver for my Lan connection for Intel I-219V.
    Do you know where I can get it

    Administrator account works on all system images builded by XP2ESD. Bug that you found in German ISO is related to some cleanup if I remember correctly. I will fix it when I get some free time.

    Simply download offline driverpacks and give it a try. I hope SDI can find compatible driver for your device.

    @KleineZiege Problem is not in XP2ESD or ISO. File is correctly present on untouched German XP setup. Can you try to run CMD and then run expand /? command? I think you have broken host system
