Hello from Germany!

Im looking for a tool to create/change and perhaps test the autounattend.xml.
Dont want to use the WAIK kit from MS.
Is any online generator still available?

Specially I need the parts for:

"Disk preparation" ->
- completly wipe the first internal disk
- prepare the disk for UEFI installation (all partitions)

"add new User" ->
- create a new user e.g. "DELL-User"
- add "DELL-User" to local administrators group
- set password for DELL-User (will be nice, but w/o pw is no problem!)

"Windows 7 pro" key
- add the Windows 7 pro (Im using the OEM/SLP keys for machines with SLIC 2.1)

"OOBE"
- dont show any EULA sites
- dont show any "first run" infos at first login

Thx and best regards!

Peter
