Windows 10 2004 not working after imaging with ImageAssist and Encrypting using TPM and ESET Endpoint Encryption.

A bit of a long title but I can't encrypt any of my several hundred Latitude 7490 after building them with ImageAssist.  If i build from a fresh Windows 10 ISO USB it works fine but imaging causes issues.  Can anyone offer any advise? 

 

Here's the process 

  • I built a new virtual machine in vsphere
  • I used the latest windows 10 2004 boot iso 
  • Installed windows 10 2004 (and nothing else)
  • Installed the latest Dell image assist tools (V10)
  • Created an image and uploaded to server
  • Booted a new laptop and using image assist
  • Selected the image to use from the server and built
  • Once built renamed the computer , rebooted
  • Decrypted bitlocker's auto encrypt 
  • Logged in and joined to the domain, rebooted
  • Cleared tpm in bios. 
  • Pushed eset endpoint encryption software to computer
  • Created activation code and applied. Rebooted
  • Ran the take ownership tpm process and rebooted laptop
  • Ran proxy sync and taking ownership fails error code 3. 

If i take the same laptop and buld from scratch (i.e. using a windows 10 2004 USB boot device), it works fine.  The process of creating an image, or deploying (perhaps) sysprep breaks things.

Any thoughts?

    Hello Stuart, I have not come across that issue, and not sure I could replicate it here in the lab. I believe you are on to something with suspecting Sysprep. The ImageAssist tool will sysprep the image and if selected, copy the user profile. If you selected the "copy profile" feature, I would rebuild with it not selected. If you still have issues, then next I would make another build from scratch and manually sysprep /generalize that image and test that. Other than sysprepping and maybe copying the profile, the DIA tool doesn't do much to the image itself, other than capturing it.

    I get the exact same problem with Lenovo X380, X390 and X13 Yoga laptops. If I ignore the sysprep part and just image the laptops, ESET takes control of the TMP. I use CCleaner and DeviceCleanup after imaging.
