They’re fairly minor cosmetic issues granted, but I’m trying to create a generic default image that I can deploy to four different PCs in my home, for multiple users, so don’t want to have to re-tweak each profile on each PC, hence the use of SysPrep/LayoutModification.xml. With these icons, the structure is the same, but icons I had set to small size are now medium, and some medium ones are now small – but different from the way I had originally configured it.Īs my xml had verified ok and I’d observed xml file structure guidelines, etc from various web sources, I am now a little stumped as to why these things have changed. Inside this, I’d resized various icons and created a logical order. These icons are just blank, although they do load the required web app, but being blank is not acceptable.Īlso, there is a “Games” folder. However, in the “Productivity” group there is a folder with Office 2019 web icons. On the Start Menu, it had recreated the layout and groups just fine, and had all the required icons. After the restore, they were in a different order. So for instance, on my master image, the taskbar icons went (from left to right) “Microsoft Store”, “File Explorer”, “Internet Explorer”, “Edge Chromium”.
I then copied the LayoutModification.xml to %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Shell and SysPrepped my machine (having created a master image) using an Unattend.xml as shown below.Īll SysPrepped ok and the PC rebooted without any error messages, and all appears to have worked ok, EXCEPT that the order of the icons on both the taskbar and in the Start Menu were not the same as they were when I ran the Start Menu export and then added in the taskbar section.
I have (following various guides on Microsoft sites and using export/import info above) now successfully created a fully working LayoutModification.xml that includes taskbar modifications, and verified the xml file successfully in
I’m running a clean install of Windows 10 Pro v2004 from the ISO downloaded from MS web site.
