'Invoke-oobeRemoveAppx' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program

[ezjurgen]

When running Start-OOBEDEPLOY (after installing and importing OSD module) as part of a TS in the OOBE phase I get the error above. I would assume the cmdlet is part of the OSD module no? googling it does point to the Start-OOBEDeploy script but not much further.

any help?
Here is the full script

PS C:\Windows\system32> Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
import-module osd
$Params = @{
    Autopilot = $false
    RemoveAppx = "CommunicationsApps","OfficeHub","People","Skype","Solitaire","Xbox","ZuneMusic","ZuneVideo"
    UpdateDrivers = $true
    UpdateWindows = $true
}

What about your %PATH%?
Set Path = %PATH%;C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Scripts

[checkitsedo]

@AkosBakos: Hi, here I have exactly the same issue, even if I testdrive with your original example scripts.
Thx for keeping an eye on it…

[NicoJDE]

I think the problem is that the scripts run as SYSTEM User and not as defaultuser0

[checkitsedo]

I think thats the reason, thx! I will try to find a solution...

[AkosBakos]

@checkitsedo I was checking at the customer side --> both scheduled tasks are running with SYSTEM.
If you wish, you can send me your WinPE and I can check your flow.

[checkitsedo]

@AkosBakos Thx for your kind offer… In the meantime I adjusted the part with the scheduled task, and I am now able to run Scripts flexibel in the right context (as SYSTEM or as defaultuser0)…

So, as soon as our Deployment has finished, I have (hopefully) the time to provide you and the community with some details about my approach (if interested…)

have a nice day and thanks for the tipp…

[ryandorman]

@checkitsedo did you happen to have those details? I"m running into the same issue. I tried substituting defaultuser0 for SYSTEM in the script but then the SendKeys doesn't run at all.
