Windows 11 OOBE bypass not working - English (International)

[garlin]

Well ok, now I downloaded a fresh copy of the US version and went through it all from scratch and guess what... the same thing!

I created a new unattended file using NTLite, and manually inserted the same RunSynchronousCommands that Rufus would normally add (for HW and MSA bypasses). It installed correctly on a clean 23H2 ISO (didn't try 24H2, as I happen to have 23H2 opened for another question).

Here's the changed lines btw your autounattend.xml and mine:

If you have a preset file, then we can check if any removals could have caused OOBE to break.
