Audit mode a second time? Or Roll back to pre SysPrep 'master'?

[Planehazza]

So, we've made our thin W10 image. We took a pre sysprep 'master' (more of a backup in case sysprep went t!ts up), then sysprepped it (with our W10_unattend.xml) and captured it with WDS. Now, we want to add more stuff to the image to capture a second one for a thicker image.

 

I think it's best to push out the pre sysprep image, add photoshop etc, sysprep it again and capture the thick image to WDS.

 

My colleague, however, thinks we can boot up the first sysprepped image, ctrl-shift-F3 it back into audit mode, then simply sysprep it again.

 

What's the best method?

 

Thanks,

That. Not even a question. Thats the whole point of taking a snapshot pre-sysprep command.

In windows 7 you could sysprep three times I believe but I always rolled it back like @v01d suggested. It's just cleaner

Thanks, it's what I thought, but I don't have the technical knowledge depth about sysprep to put a good case across. I guess we'll find out one way or another over the next 6 weeks!
