discussion New Computer build flow - any AMD specific stuff I should know

Windows will eventually have a package manager integrated too: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/windows-package-manager-preview/

They've had something similar for like 8 years. My brother was the senior dev for the old version OneGet.

Good info, following along. This will be my first AMD build since the Athlon 64 days

I think it was your autounattend script I've got saved to allow me to skip over the requirement to use a MS account for installations. Saves me a ton of time, and aggravation.

Windows 10 October 2018 Update (1809)

@sswilson can you clarify? Most people are running the OOBE without a network cable plugged in and that was sufficient. Just keep in mind you need to skip the WIFI connect portion if applicable, otherwise you'll get stuck again.

I've heard some people say with 20H2 they've made it even harder to get around using a local account during installation. Most things I've seen suggest using a "fake" email address so that it fails and then you get the option to do local.

I'll have to do some testing to make sure the Autounattend.xml still works
