Installation[edit | edit source]

  • Use dism.exe to directly apply the base image (usually in .WIM format) to a hypervisor with a pre-configured disk.
  • Apply the following entries to the registry hives before starting the machine:

"NumberOfInitialSessions"=dword:00000002

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\BrokerInfrastructure]

  • Create a new account, or activate and reset the password of built-in Administrator account via Local User and Group Management (lusrmgr.msc) in Safe mode.
