Hi

By "preparing", I mean the integration into our deployment system and the testing.
I use unmodified ISO's from VLSC.

Hi

I had the same problem and solved it this way (because it doesn't work with ISO 1909):

(Upgrade CAB is very small and only unlocks the features from 1909)

 

Vorbereitung:

Ausgangs ISO 1903:
SW_DVD9_Win_Pro_10_1903.1_64BIT_English_Pro_Ent_EDU_N_MLF_X22-14064.ISO

Ausgangs ISO für Language CAB Files:
SW_DVD9_NTRL_Win_10_1903_32_64_ARM64_MultiLang_LangPackAll_LIP_X22-01656.ISO

Ausgangs LocalExperiencePacks Version:
Microsoft.LanguageExperiencePackde-DE_18362.15.56.0_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx

Ausgangs ISO für Lizenzfile für LXP Packs:
SW_DVD9_NTRL_Win_10_1903_32_64_ARM64_MultiLang_LangPackAll_LIP_X22-01656.ISO
(Lizenz File von der im ISO enthaltenen LXP Version)

Upgrade CAB 1809 zu 1909
windows10.0-kb4517245-x64_4250e1db7bc9468236c967c2c15f04b755b3d3a9.cab

 

Vorbereitung install.wim:

#Index für Win10 Pro
Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"C:\dism\Win10_1903\sources\install.wim" /index:5 /MountDir:C:\dism\mount\

 

#Notwendige Language Packs
Dism /Image:C:\dism\mount\ /ScratchDir:%temp% /Add-Package /PackagePath:"C:\dism\LP_1903\Microsoft-Windows-Client-Language-Pack_x64_de-de.cab"

 

#Update auf 1909
Dism /Image:C:\dism\mount\ /ScratchDir:%temp% /Add-Package /PackagePath:"C:\dism\Win10_1903_FeatureUpdate_1909\windows10.0-kb4517245-x64_4250e1db7bc9468236c967c2c15f04b755b3d3a9.cab"

 

#Notwendige LXP's zu Language Packs
Add-AppxProvisionedPackage -Path "C:\dism\mount" -PackagePath "C:\dism\LXP_1909\DE\Microsoft.LanguageExperiencePackde-DE_18362.15.56.0_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx" -LicensePath "C:\dism\LXP_1909\DE\License.xml"

 

Dism /image:C:\dism\mount\ /gen-langini /distribution:"C:\dism\Win10_1903"

 

Dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:C:\dism\mount\ /Commit

 

 

Installation auf Client:

Start-Process -FilePath "C:\install\setup.exe" -ArgumentList '/Auto Upgrade /Quiet /DynamicUpdate Disable /noReboot /Priority High /PostOOBE "C:\install\setupcomplete.cmd"' -Wait

 

POST-Installation:
It takes about 5 minutes after logon until the icons in Edge are displayed correctly again etc., possibly also a restart.

 

Regards / Gruss

Denys G.

 

Edit:

I first read the installed language on the client and then set it before the installation:

 

New-Item -Path "C:\install\" -Name "mount" -ItemType "directory" -Force
Dism /Mount-Image /ImageFile:"C:\install\sources\install.wim" /index:5 /MountDir:"C:\install\mount"
Dism /image:"C:\install\mount" /Set-UILang:de-DE
Dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:"C:\install\mount" /Commit
Start-Process -FilePath "C:\install\setup.exe" -ArgumentList '/Auto Upgrade /Quiet /DynamicUpdate Disable /noReboot /Priority High /PostOOBE "C:\install\setupcomplete.cmd"' -Wait
