Startup

OSD 23.5.22.1+ Updated May 22, 2023

Every time you run Edit-OSDCloudWinPE, even to add Drivers or change the Wallpaper, the WinPE Startup will reset to the Default

Default

The default for WinPE Startup is to open a PowerShell window. This is the method I prefer as it gives me the flexibility to do anything I want, rather than to be locked into something specific.

Edit-OSDCloudWinPE

WinPE Startnet.cmd

This is the Startnet.cmd when using the Default WinPE Startup configuration. This is what is edited when you make one of the changes below

@ECHO OFF
wpeinit
cd\
title OSD 23.5.21.1
PowerShell -Nol -C Initialize-OSDCloudStartnet
@ECHO OFF
start PowerShell -NoL

WinPE Startup Options

These are the available WinPE Start options that you can configure

StartOSDCloudGUI

This parameter will automatically launch Start-OSDCloudGUI

Edit-OSDCloudWinPE -StartOSDCloudGUI

StartOSDCloudGUI -Brand

If you don't want OSDCloud displayed on the OSDCloud GUI, give it your own brand

Edit-OSDCloudWinPE -StartOSDCloudGUI -Brand 'David Segura'

Edit-OSDCloudWinPE -StartOSDCloudGUI -Brand 'HP'

StartOSDCloud

Yes, WinPE can start OSDCloud (CLI) automatically using this parameter. The value for this parameter need to be the parameters for Start-OSDCloud (CLI). Here's an example:

Edit-OSDCloudWinPE -StartOSDCloud "-OSName 'Windows 10 21H2 x64' -OSLanguage en-us -OSEdition Pro -OSActivation Retail"

StartURL

Here is a cool example of putting your Command Line into a GitHub Gist

https://gist.github.com/OSDeploy/a0643dd05ccc3a95eba87559e66ce397gist.github.com

Then use the 'view raw' URL as the value for StartURL. This is great way to customize the launch of your WinPE, or make some last minute changes.
