Also, atm, it's unclear(different reports) about retaining the registry
value. Four different pieces of feedback indicate different scenarios for
these two items on Win11 24H2
1. Registry value present
2. Registry value not present
Discussion on the above centers on the use of the script.
- script(first use) creates registry values when BypassNRO method is used
- script after having been used in the past, Windows retains registry
values
- no prior use of the script, no registry value present.
- no prior use of the script, registry value present
The variation around those four has too many possibilities when one
considers the source of the Windows image placed on the device
- BYO with media (clean install)
- BYO by an OEM system builder (clean install with setup b/f system
delivery but with a Local Account created
- OEM built device for consumers
- OEM built device for business
i.e. the OOBE experience can/may be different
