I am very satisfied with my created iso but there is one problem, i can't activate Windows.

I always get the message "the activation of Windows servers are now inaccessible" and ........
error code 0x80040154

so i tried [CENSORED] but that doesn't work also Crying or Very sad

I hope someone knows what component causes the problem in my wccf file.

It was the Windows Store app that causes the problem.
I made a new ISO with all the apps removed except Windows store and after install Windows there are no more problems with the activation.

Hello,

Thanks for the report ... I've noted this in my ToDo list for the next builds.

Nice work Man, shame there's not much we can do about the Store App.



Thanks for the Heads up

concerning latest build 0.7.3:
If you activate Windows Activation and remove Windows Store App it breaks Windows Activation.
Can you please add the Windows Store App to the Preset "Protect Windows Activation".

Hello guys,

In the next build, which will be available on 03 June 2016, this will be fixed.

So, you will need to activate the "Preset - Protect Windows Activation GUI" for this.

This feature worked on a legacy-BIOS desktop,
but on Asus UX31A Ultrabook with UEFI,
Windows isn't activated.

It had an OEM Win8 that was updated to 10.

Store was not removed.

Other things to check?

Answering my own situation:

Check you version BEFORE you whack the current install.

You can't install Pro over Home.

SMH.
