Windows Automated Install Tool installs Windows 10 automatically.

Windows Automated Install Tool (WAIT)

If for some reason you use Windows 10 this tool is here to install it faster!

It completely skips OOBE and Privacy Experience screen, while allowing you to customize your install.

Tested on:

• Tiny10 x64 21H2 Virtual Machine (VirtualBox with UEFI)

Notes

1. It works only on devices supporting UEFI.
2. If you choose to enable customizations, the install will not be completely automated (you will have to press 'Yes' to a UAC prompt).

Running

1. Put WAIT.bat to your Windows Installation USB.
2. Boot from the USB.
3. Tap Shift+F10, so a command prompt window opens.
4. Type D:\WAIT.bat or the location of the file if you put it somewhere else and press Enter.
5. Answer the questions and install Windows!

Customizations

This tool allows you to customize your install.

These customizations include:

• Removing Microsoft Edge
• Downloading and running MAS to activate Windows
• Installing a web browser (Firefox or Ungoogled Chromium)
• Enabling the sethc bug (Pressing Shift 5 times opens cmd)
• Enabling verbose startup messages

How it works

See EXPLANATION.md for details.
