Windows 10 Out-of-Box Experience (OOBE) setup wizard

The Out-of-Box Experience or OOBE for short is the phase of Windows setup that allows you to customize your Windows 10 experience. Some of the task you can accomplish include defining personalized settings, create user accounts, join a business network, join a wireless network and define privacy settings.

The Windows 10 first-run setup experience on a single-user workstation will require the user to sign in with their UWin Account.

Multi-user Workstation

1. Wait for the region selection screen to appear and plug in the USB stick that contains the provisioning package copied from \\uwdfs.uwinad.uwindsor.ca\Apps\Intune

2. Once the storage device is attached, Windows will automatically apply the changes skipping the rest of the OOBE setup. You will see a screen confirming which operations were successful.
