You can deploy your custom image by using Windows® Setup.
In build-to-order (BTO) deployment methods, all customizations are completed either as described in Phase 3: Preparing and Customizing Your Windows Image, or in audit mode.
By using Windows Setup, you can apply a second answer file (Unattend.xml) to your custom image. You can use the second answer file to customize your image during deployment. For example, you can apply different disk configurations or add additional drivers and applications.
In BTO deployment methods, Windows Setup is used to deploy and create a reference computer. This reference computer is used for capturing and applying images. For more information, see Capture and Apply Windows Images.
