Managing Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 Dell Computers using Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager Administrator’s Guide

Capturing Windows image from reference system

1. Plug in the prepared USB flash drive or CD/DVD to the reference thin client.
2. Open the USB pen drive or CD/DVD drive, and go to D:\SMS\Bin\i386.
3. Run the D:\SMS\Bin\i386\TSMBAutoRun.exe file.
   The Image Capture Wizard is displayed.
4. On the Welcome to the Image Capture Wizard page, click Next.

   

5. On the Image Destination page, browse to any of the following:
   • A shared location on the remote network—recommended
   • A local USB drive path along with the .wim file name extension

   

6. Click Next.
7. On the Image Information page, click Next.
8. On the Summary page, click Finish.
   The installer takes 5–10 minutes to start the capture process. During the capture process, the machine completes the Sysprep and boots into the Windows Preinstallation Environment. In the Windows Preinstallation Environment session, the image is captured. After the image capture, the .wim file is generated and stored to the location specified in the Capture Wizard page.

   NOTE:

   After the image is captured, the reference thin client will not be in the same state as it was before the capture. To bring the reference thin client back to its original state, see msdn.microsoft.com/library/.
