Microsoft Deployment Toolkit

I did project at my first real job as system administrator and helpdesk support. We had to install a lot of laptops, but the company did this by hand and I was given the task to install all those laptops. Figured out a way to install all those laptops unattend with Microsoft Deployment Toolkit and more.

Repository can be found here

FAQ

How do I Migrate this project to another server?

Copy the folders of Microsoft Deployment Toolkit and you are ready to import it on the other server. (e.g. Windows Server 2019.)
