Managing answer files for Sysprepped images

The appliance allows you to create and manage answer files for Sysprepped Windows images.

Sysprep (System Preparation) is a Microsoft tool for capturing OS images. It removes device-specific information from a Windows installation, allowing it to be deployed to other target devices.

NOTE: You can access this tool by clicking the Sysprep Creator Wizard link on the Library Overview page.

System administrators typically use answer files (unattend.xml) to fully automate the configuration and deployment of Windows systems. Each answer file contains a set of pre-defined values required by Windows system installation, eliminating the need for user interaction during the installation.
