WDS and answer file, but still a screen asking for language

Hi all

I have made a unattend.xml file with ADK/WSIM :

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">
    <settings pass="windowsPE">
        <component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core-WinPE" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
            <SetupUILanguage>
                <UILanguage>fr-FR</UILanguage>
            </SetupUILanguage>
            <InputLocale>fr-FR</InputLocale>
            <SystemLocale>fr-FR</SystemLocale>
            <UILanguage>fr-FR</UILanguage>
            <UILanguageFallback>fr-FR</UILanguageFallback>
            <UserLocale>fr-FR</UserLocale>
        </component>
    </settings>
    <settings pass="oobeSystem">

            <UILanguage>fr-FR</UILanguage>
            <UserLocale>fr-FR</UserLocale>
        </component>
    </settings>
    <cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:c:/users/administrateur/documents/adk/install.wim#Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021 Evaluation" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />
</unattend>

 

 

And I activated this answer file this way in WDS :

 

But still I get this screen when i setup Windows on a new PC :

 

I thought the preceeding screen would be skiped. What's wrong ?

 

Thank you for reading so far.

    Hi all

    Maybe it's easier for you to watch the answer file this way :

        CeeDubHI may have found a solution. I had this problem persistently until I ensured that I was using WinPE from the same version as my install disk
