I want to make my advanced Windows installation image / disc for easy installation, like Toshiba does.

  • Its not clear what you are talking about. What exactly makes the installation media advanced?

    @Ramhound I think they mean like the customized recovery images most manufacturers include in a hidden partition. So that, should the user decide to reimage the system, they get an OOBE with all the applications that came originally pre-installed. But I could be wrong.

  • @JSanchez understood my idea. Simply i want to make my own cd like manufacturers does.

You must install a fresh Windows, but go into audit mode before OOBE with CTRL+SHIFT+F3.

Now install all Software you want to include. When you have done this, run sysprep /generalize to make the Image usable on all hardware configurations.

Now capture the installation to a new Image (WIM) with DISM:

Dism /Capture-Image /ImageFile:D:\Install.wim /CaptureDir:C:\ /Compress:maximum

replace the original Install.wim with your one.
