+
+
+
+### Add a certificate to your package
+
+1. In the **Available customizations** pane, go to **Runtime settings** > **Certificates** > **ClientCertificates**.
+
+2. Enter a **CertificateName** and then click **Add**.
+
+2. Enter the **CertificatePassword**.
+
+3. For **CertificatePath**, browse and select the certificate to be used.
+
+4. Set **ExportCertificate** to **False**.
+
+5. For **KeyLocation**, select **Software only**.
+
+
+### Add other settings to your package
+
+For details about the settings you can customize in provisioning packages, see [Windows Provisioning settings reference]( https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=619012).
+
+### Build your package
+
+1. When you are done configuring the provisioning package, on the **File** menu, click **Save**.
+
+2. Read the warning that project files may contain sensitive information, and click **OK**.
+> **Important** When you build a provisioning package, you may include sensitive information in the project files and in the provisioning package (.ppkg) file. Although you have the option to encrypt the .ppkg file, project files are not encrypted. You should store the project files in a secure location and delete the project files when they are no longer needed.
+
+3. On the **Export** menu, click **Provisioning package**.
+
+1. Change **Owner** to **IT Admin**, which will set the precedence of this provisioning package higher than provisioning packages applied to this device from other sources, and then select **Next.**
+
+10. Set a value for **Package Version**.
+
+ > [!TIP]
+ > You can make changes to existing packages and change the version number to update previously applied packages.
+
+11. Optional. In the **Provisioning package security** window, you can choose to encrypt the package and enable package signing.
+
+ - **Enable package encryption** - If you select this option, an auto-generated password will be shown on the screen.
+
+ - **Enable package signing** - If you select this option, you must select a valid certificate to use for signing the package. You can specify the certificate by clicking **Select...** and choosing the certificate you want to use to sign the package.
+
+ **Important**
+ We recommend that you include a trusted provisioning certificate in your provisioning package. When the package is applied to a device, the certificate is added to the system store and any package signed with that certificate thereafter can be applied silently.
+
+12. Click **Next** to specify the output location where you want the provisioning package to go once it's built. By default, Windows ICD uses the project folder as the output location.
+Optionally, you can click **Browse** to change the default output location.
+
+13. Click **Next**.
+
+14. Click **Build** to start building the package. The project information is displayed in the build page and the progress bar indicates the build status.
+If you need to cancel the build, click **Cancel**. This cancels the current build process, closes the wizard, and takes you back to the **Customizations Page**.
+
+15. If your build fails, an error message will show up that includes a link to the project folder. You can scan the logs to determine what caused the error. Once you fix the issue, try building the package again.
+If your build is successful, the name of the provisioning package, output directory, and project directory will be shown.
+
+ - If you choose, you can build the provisioning package again and pick a different path for the output package. To do this, click **Back** to change the output package name and path, and then click **Next** to start another build.
+
+ - If you are done, click **Finish** to close the wizard and go back to the **Customizations Page**.
+
+16. Select the **output location** link to go to the location of the package. You can provide that .ppkg to others through any of the following methods:
+
+ - Shared network folder
+
+ - SharePoint site
+
+ - Removable media (USB/SD)
+
+ - Email
+
+ - USB tether (mobile only)
+
+ - NFC (mobile only)

+# Use Windows Configuration Designer to configure Windows 10 Mobile devices
+Windows provisioning makes it easy for IT administrators to configure end-user devices without imaging. Using provisioning packages, ayou can easily specify desired configuration, settings, and information required to enroll the devices into management, and then apply that configuration to target devices in a matter of minutes.
+
+A provisioning package (.ppkg) is a container for a collection of configuration settings. Using Windows Configuration Designer, you can create provisioning packages that let you quickly and efficiently configure a device without having to install a new image.
+
+Windows Configuration Designer can be installed from the [Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) for Windows 10](https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/windows-assessment-deployment-kit). Windows Configuration Designer is also available as an app in the Windows Store. [Learn more about installing Windows Configuration Designer.](provisioning-install-icd.md)
+
+## Create a provisioning package using the wizard
+
+The **Provision Windows mobile devices** wizard lets you configure common settings for devices running Windows 10 Mobile in a simple, graphical workflow.
+
+### Start a new project
+
+1. Open Windows Configuration Designer:
+ - From either the Start screen or Start menu search, type 'Windows Configuration Designer' and click the Windows Configuration Designer shortcut,
+
+ or
+
+ - If you installed Windows Configuration Designer from the ADK, navigate to `C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Imaging and Configuration Designer\x86` (on an x64 computer) or `C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Imaging and Configuration Designer\x86\ICD.exe` (on an x86 computer), and then double-click **ICD.exe**.
+
+2. On the **Start** page, choose **Provision Windows mobile devices**.
+
+3. Enter a name for your project, and then click **Next**.
+
+
+### Configure settings in the wizard
+
+
+Enter a device name. Optionally, you can enter a product key to upgrade the device from Windows 10 Mobile to Windows 10 Mobile Enterprise. |  |
+ Toggle **On** or **Off** for wireless network connectivity. If you select **On**, enter the SSID, network type (**Open** or **WPA2-Personal**), and (if **WPA2-Personal**) the password for the wireless network. |  |
+ Before you use a Windows Configuration Designer wizard to configure bulk Azure AD enrollment, [set up Azure AD join in your organization](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/active-directory-azureadjoin-setup). The **maximum number of devices per user** setting in your Azure AD tenant determines how many times the bulk token that you get in the wizard can be used. Set an expiration date for the token (maximum is 30 days from the date you get the token). Click **Get bulk token**. In the **Let's get you signed in** window, enter an account that has permissions to join a device to Azure AD, and then the password. Click **Accept** to give Windows Configuration Designer the necessary permissions.**Warning:** You must run Windows Configuration Designer on Windows 10 to configure Azure Active Directory enrollment using any of the wizards. |  |
+ You can set a password to protect your provisioning package. You must enter this password when you apply the provisioning package to a device. |  |
+
+
+After you're done, click **Create**. It only takes a few seconds. When the package is built, the location where the package is stored is displayed as a hyperlink at the bottom of the page.
+
+### Apply provisioning package
+
+You can apply a provisioning package to a device running Windows 10 Mobile by using:
+
+- removable media
+- copying the provisioning package to the device
+- [NFC tags](provisioning-nfc.md)
+- [barcodes](provisioning-package-splitter.md)
+
+### Using removable media
+
+1. Insert an SD card containing the provisioning package into the device.
+2. Navigate to **Settings** > **Accounts** > **Access work or school** > **Add or remove a provisioning package** > **Add a package**, and select the package to install.
+
+ 
+
+3. Click **Add**.
+
+4. On the device, the **Is this package from a source you trust?** message will appear. Tap **Yes, add it**.
+
+ 
+
+### Copying the provisioning package to the device
+
+1. Connect the device to your PC through USB.
+
+2. On the PC, select the provisioning package that you want to use to provision the device and then drag and drop the file to your device.
+
+3. On the device, the **Is this package from a source you trust?** message will appear. Tap **Yes, add it**.

+- Windows 10 Mobile
+
+Enterprises that do bulk provisioning can use barcode-based device provisioning to provide a provisioning package to the device that's being provisioned.
+
+The barcode provisioning option enables the administrator to provide a provisioning package during initial device setup (the out-of-box experience or OOBE phase). To use barcodes to provision a device, your devices must have an integrated barcode scanner. You can get the barcode format that the scanner supports from your OEM or device provider, and use your existing tools and processes to convert a provisioning package into barcodes.
+
+Enterprise IT professionals who want to use a barcode to provision mobile devices during OOBE can use the package splitter tool, **ppkgtobase64.exe**, which is a command-line tool to split the provisioning package into smaller files.
+
+The smallest provisioning package is typically 5-6 KB, which cannot fit into one single barcode. The package splitter tool allows partners to split the original provisioning package into multiple smaller sized chunks that are encoded with Base64 so that enterprises can leverage their existing tools to convert these files into barcodes.
+
+When you [install Windows Configuration Designer](provisioning-install-icd.md) from the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK), **ppkgtobase64.exe** is installed to the same folder.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before you can use the tool, you must have a built provisioning package. The package file is the input to the package splitter tool.
+
+- To build a provisioning package using the Windows Configuration Designer UI, see [Use Windows Configuration Designer to configure Windows 10 Mobile devices](provisioning-configure-mobile.md).
+- To build a provisioning package using the Windows Configuration Designer CLI, see [Windows Configuration Designer command-line interface](provisioning-command-line.md).
+
+## To use the package splitter tool (ppkgtobase64.exe)
+
+1. Open a command-line window with administrator privileges.
+
+
+2. From the command-line, navigate to the Windows Configuration Designer install directory.
+
+ On an x64 computer, type:
+ ```
+ cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Imaging and Configuration Designer\x86
+ ```
+
+ - or -
+
+ On an x86 computer, type:
+
+ ```
+ cd C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Imaging and Configuration Designer\x86
+ ```
+
+3. Run `ppkgtobase64.exe`. The [syntax](#syntax) and [switches and arguments](#switches-and-arguments) sections provide details for the command.
+
+
+### Syntax
+
+```
+ppkgtobase64.exe -i -o -s [-c] [/?]
+```
+
+### Switches and arguments
+
+| Switch | Required? | Arguments |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| -i | Yes | Use to specify the path and file name of the provisioning package that you want to divide into smaller files.The tool allows you to specify the absolute path of the provisioning package file. However, if you don't specify the path, the tool will search the current folder for a package that matches the file name you specified. |
+| -o | Yes | Use to specify the directory where the output files will be saved. |
+| -s | Yes | Use to specify the size of the block that will be encoded in Base64. |
+| -c | No | Use to delete any files in the output directory if the directory already exists. This parameter is optional. |
+| /? | No | Lists the switches and their descriptions for the command-line tool or for certain commands. |

The simple provisioning wizard makes the entire process quick and easy by guiding an IT administrator through common configuration settings in a step-by-step manner.
+- The tool for creating provisioning packages is renamed Windows Configuration Designer, replacing the Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD) tool. The components for creating images have been removed from Windows Configuration Designer, which now provides access to runtime settings only.
+- Windows Configuration Designer can still be installed from the Windows ADK. You can also install it from the Windows Store.
+- Windows Configuration Designer adds more wizards to make it easier to create provisioning packages for specific scenarios. See [What you can configure](#configuration-designer-wizards) for wizard descriptions.
+- The wizard **Provision desktop devices** (previously called **Simple provisioning**) now enables joining Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) domains and also allows you to remove non-Microsoft software from Windows desktop devices during provisioning.
+- When provisioning packages are applied to a device, a status screen indicates successful or failed provisioning.
+- Windows 10 includes PowerShell cmdlets that simplify scripted provisioning. Using these cmdlets, you can add provisioning packages, remove provisioning packages and generate log files to investigate provisioning errors.
+- The **Provision school devices** wizard is removed from Windows Configuration Designer. Instead, use the [Setup School PCs app](https://www.microsoft.com/store/p/set-up-school-pcs/9nblggh4ls40) from the Windows Store.

-* **Mobile device enrollment into management** - Enables IT administrators to purchase off-the-shelf retail Windows 10 Mobile devices and enroll them into mobile device management (MDM) before handing them to end-users in the organization. IT administrators can use Windows ICD to specify the management end-point and apply the configuration on target devices by connecting them to a Windows PC (tethered deployment) or through an SD card. Supported management end-points include:
-
- * System Center Configuration Manager and Microsoft Intune hybrid (certificate-based enrollment)
- * AirWatch (password-string based enrollment)
- * Mobile Iron (password-string based enrollment)
- * Other MDMs (cert-based enrollment)

+# PowerShell cmdlets for provisioning Windows 10 (reference)
+
+
+**Applies to**
+
+- Windows 10
+- Windows 10 Mobile
+
+Windows 10, version 1703, ships with Windows Provisioning PowerShell cmdlets. These cmdlets make it easy to script the following functions.
+
+
+
+Cmdlet | Use this cmdlet to | Syntax |
+Add-ProvisioningPackage | Apply a provisioning package | ```Add-ProvisioningPackage [-Path] [-ForceInstall] [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
+Remove-ProvisioningPackage | Remove a provisioning package | ```Remove-ProvisioningPackage -PackageId [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
```Remove-ProvisioningPackage -Path [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
```Remove-ProvisioningPackage -AllInstalledPackages [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
+Get-ProvisioningPackage | Get information about an installed provisioning package | ```Get-ProvisioningPackage -PackageId [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
```Get-ProvisioningPackage -Path [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
```Get-ProvisioningPackage -AllInstalledPackages [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
+ Export-ProvisioningPackage | Extract the contents of a provisioning package | ```Export-ProvisioningPackage -PackageId -OutputFolder [-Overwrite] [-AnswerFileOnly] [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
```Export-ProvisioningPackage -Path -OutputFolder [-Overwrite] [-AnswerFileOnly] [-LogsFolder ] [-WprpFile ] []``` |
+ Install-TrustedProvisioningCertificate | Adds a certificate to the Trusted Certificate store | ```Install-TrustedProvisioningCertificate ``` |
+Get-TrustedProvisioningCertificate | List all installed trusted provisioning certificates; use this cmdlet to get the certificate thumbprint to use with the **Uninstall-TrustedProvisioningCertificate** cmdlet | ```Get-TrustedProvisioningCertificate``` |
+Uninstall-TrustedProvisioningCertificate | Remove a previously installed provisioning certificate | ```Uninstall-TrustedProvisioningCertificate ``` |
+
+
+>[!NOTE]
+> You can use Get-Help to get usage help on any command. For example: `Get-Help Add-ProvisioningPackage`
+
+Trace logs are captured when using cmdlets. The following logs are available in the logs folder after the cmdlet completes:
+
+- ProvTrace.<timestamp>.ETL - ETL trace file, unfiltered
+- ProvTrace.<timestamp>.XML - ETL trace file converted into raw trace events, unfiltered
+- ProvTrace.<timestamp>.TXT - TEXT file containing trace output formatted for easy reading, filtered to only show events logged by providers in the WPRP file
+- ProvLogReport.<timestamp>.XLS - Excel file containing trace output, filtered to only show events logged by providers in WPRP file
+
+
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>When applying provisioning packages using Powershell cmdlets, the default behavior is to suppress the prompt that appears when applying an unsigned provisioning package. This is by design so that provisioning packages can be applied as part of existing scripts.

-> If you're interested in using Windows 10 for shared PCs in a school, see [Use Set up School PCs app](https://technet.microsoft.com/edu/windows/use-set-up-school-pcs-app) which provides a simple way to configure PCs with shared PC mode plus additional settings specific for education.
-
-##Shared PC mode concepts
-A Windows 10 PC in shared PC mode is designed to be management- and maintenance-free with high reliability. In shared PC mode, only one user can be signed in at a time. When the PC is locked, the currently signed in user can always be signed out at the lock screen. Users who sign-in are signed in as standard users, not admin users.
-
-###Account models
-It is intended that shared PCs are joined to an Active Directory or Azure Active Directory domain by a user with the necessary rights to perform a domain join as part of a setup process. This enables any user that is part of the directory to sign-in to the PC as a standard user. The user who originally joined the PC to the domain will have administrative rights when they sign in. If using Azure Active Directory Premium, any domain user can also be configured to sign in with administrative rights. Additionally, shared PC mode can be configured to enable a **Start without an account** option on the sign-in screen, which doesn't require any user credentials or authentication and creates a new local account.
-
-###Account management
-When the account management service is turned on in shared PC mode, accounts are automatically deleted. Account deletion applies to Active Directory, Azure Active Directory, and local accounts that are created by the **Start without an account** option. Account management is performed both at sign-off time (to make sure there is enough disk space for the next user) as well as during system maintenance time periods. Shared PC mode can be configured to delete accounts immediately at sign-out or when disk space is low.
-
-###Maintenance and sleep
-Shared PC mode is configured to take advantage of maintenance time periods which run while the PC is not in use. Therefore, sleep is strongly recommended so that the PC can wake up when it is not is use to perform maintenance, clean up accounts, and run Windows Update. The recommended settings can be set by choosing **SetPowerPolicies** in the list of shared PC options. Additionally, on devices without Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) wake alarms, shared PC mode will always override real-time clock (RTC) wake alarms to be allowed to wake the PC from sleep (by default, RTC wake alarms are off). This ensures that the widest variety of hardware will take advantage of maintenance periods.
-
-While shared PC mode does not configure Windows Update itself, it is strongly recommended to configure Windows Update to automatically install updates and reboot (if necessary) during maintenance hours. This will help ensure the PC is always up to date and not interrupting users with updates. Use one of the following methods to configure Windows Update:
-
-- Group Policy: Set **Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Update > Configure Automatic Updates** to `4` and check **Install during automatic maintenance**.
-- MDM: Set **Update/AllowAutoUpdate** to `4`.
-- Provisioning: In Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD), set **Policies/Update/AllowAutoUpdate** to `4`.
-
-[Learn more about the AllowAutoUpdate settings](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn904962.aspx#Update_AllowAutoUpdate)
-
-###App behavior
-
-Apps can take advantage of shared PC mode by changing their app behavior to align with temporary use scenarios. For example, an app might only download content on demand on a device in shared PC mode, or might skip first run experiences. For information on how an app can query for shared PC mode, see [SharedModeSettings class](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.system.profile.sharedmodesettings.aspx).
-
-###Customization
-Shared PC mode exposes a set of customizations to tailor the behavior to your requirements. These customizations are the options that you'll set either using MDM or a provisioning package as explained in [Configuring shared PC mode on Windows](#configuring-shared-pc-mode-on-windows). The options are listed in the following table.
-
-| Setting | Value |
-|:---|:---|
-| EnableSharedPCMode | Set as **True**. If this is not set to **True**, shared PC mode is not turned on and none of the other settings apply. Some of the remaining settings in **SharedPC** are optional, but we strongly recommend that you also set `EnableAccountManager` to **True**. |
-| AccountManagement: AccountModel | This option controls how users can sign-in on the PC. Choosing domain-joined will enable any user in the domain to sign-in. Specifying the guest option will add the **Start without an account** option to the sign-in screen and enable anonymous guest access to the PC.
- **Only guest** allows anyone to use the PC as a local standard (non-admin) account.
- **Domain-joined only** allows users to sign in with an Active Directory or Azure AD account.
- **Domain-joined and guest** allows users to sign in with an Active Directory, Azure AD, or local standard account. |
-| AccountManagement: DeletionPolicy | - **Delete immediately** will delete the account on sign-out.
- **Delete at disk space threshold** will start deleting accounts when available disk space falls below the threshold you set for **DiskLevelDeletion**, and it will stop deleting accounts when the available disk space reaches the threshold you set for **DiskLevelCaching**. Accounts are deleted in order of oldest accessed to most recently accessed.
Example: The caching number is 50 and the deletion number is 25. Accounts will be cached while the free disk space is above 25%. When the free disk space is less than 25% (the deletion number) at a maintenance period, accounts will be deleted (oldest last used first) until the free disk space is above 50% (the caching number). Accounts will be deleted immediately at sign off of an account if free space is under the deletion threshold and disk space is very low, regardless if the PC is actively in use or not. |
-| AccountManagement: DiskLevelCaching | If you set **DeletionPolicy** to **Delete at disk space threshold**, set the percent of total disk space to be used as the disk space threshold for account caching. |
-| AccountManagement: DiskLevelDeletion | If you set **DeletionPolicy** to **Delete at disk space threshold**, set the percent of total disk space to be used as the disk space threshold for account deletion. |
-| AccountManagement: EnableAccountManager | Set as **True** to enable automatic account management. If this is not set to true, no automatic account management will be done. |
-| Customization: MaintenanceStartTime | By default, the maintenance start time (which is when automatic maintenance tasks run, such as Windows Update) is midnight. You can adjust the start time in this setting by entering a new start time in minutes from midnight. For example, if you want maintenance to begin at 2 AM, enter `120` as the value. |
-| Customization: SetEduPolicies | Set to **True** for PCs that will be used in a school. When **SetEduPolicies** is **True**, the following additional settings are applied:
- Local storage locations are restricted. Users can only save files to the cloud.
- Custom Start and taskbar layouts are set.\*
- A custom sign-in screen background image is set.\*
- Additional educational policies are applied (see full list below).
\*Only applies to Windows 10 Pro Education, Enterprise, and Education |
-| Customization: SetPowerPolicies | When set as **True**:
- Prevents users from changing power settings
- Turns off hibernate
- Overrides all power state transitions to sleep (e.g. lid close) |
-| Customization: SignInOnResume | This setting specifies if the user is required to sign in with a password when the PC wakes from sleep. |
-| Customization: SleepTimeout | Specifies all timeouts for when the PC should sleep. Enter the amount of idle time in seconds. If you don't set sleep timeout, the default of 1 hour applies. |

-##Configuring shared PC mode on Windows
-You can configure Windows to be in shared PC mode in a couple different ways:
-- Mobile device management (MDM): Shared PC mode is enabled by the [SharedPC configuration service provider (CSP)](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/mt723294.aspx). Your MDM policy can contain any of the options listed in the [Customization](#customization) section. The following image shows a Microsoft Intune policy with the shared PC options added as OMA-URI settings. [Learn more about Windows 10 policy settings in Microsoft Intune.](https://docs.microsoft.com/intune/deploy-use/windows-10-policy-settings-in-microsoft-intune)
-
-
-
-- A provisioning package created with the Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD): You can apply a provisioning package when you initially set up the PC (also known as the out-of-box-experience or OOBE), or you can apply the provisioning package to a Windows 10 PC that is already in use. The provisioning package is created in Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (ICD). Shared PC mode is enabled by the [SharedPC configuration service provider (CSP)](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/mt723294.aspx), exposed in ICD as SharedPC.
-
-
-
-
-### Create a provisioning package for shared use
-
-Use the Windows ICD tool included in the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK) for Windows 10 to create a provisioning package that configures a device for shared PC mode. [Install the ADK and select **Configuration Designer**.](https://developer.microsoft.com/windows/hardware/windows-assessment-deployment-kit)
-
-1. Open Windows ICD (by default, %windir%\\Program Files (x86)\\Windows Kits\\10\\Assessment and Deployment Kit\\Imaging and Configuration Designer\\x86\\ICD.exe).
-
-2. On the **Start page**, select **Advanced provisioning**.
-
-3. Enter a name and (optionally) a description for the project, and click **Next**.
-
-4. Select **All Windows desktop editions**, and click **Next**.
-
-5. Click **Finish**. Your project opens in Windows ICD.
-
-6. Go to **Runtime settings** > **SharedPC**. [Select the desired settings for shared PC mode.](#customization)
-
-7. On the **File** menu, select **Save.**
-8. On the **Export** menu, select **Provisioning package**.
-9. Change **Owner** to **IT Admin**, which will set the precedence of this provisioning package higher than provisioning packages applied to this device from other sources, and then select **Next.**
-10. Set a value for **Package Version**.
- > [!TIP]
- > You can make changes to existing packages and change the version number to update previously applied packages.
-
-11. (*Optional*) In the **Provisioning package security** window, you can choose to encrypt the package and enable package signing.
- - **Enable package encryption** - If you select this option, an auto-generated password will be shown on the screen.
- - **Enable package signing** - If you select this option, you must select a valid certificate to use for signing the package. You can specify the certificate by clicking **Select...** and choosing the certificate you want to use to sign the package.
-
- > [!IMPORTANT]
- > We recommend that you include a trusted provisioning certificate in your provisioning package. When the package is applied to a device, the certificate is added to the system store and any package signed with that certificate thereafter can be applied silently.
-
-12. Click **Next** to specify the output location where you want the provisioning package to go once it's built. By default, Windows ICD uses the project folder as the output location.
- Optionally, you can click **Browse** to change the default output location.
-13. Click **Next**.
-14. Click **Build** to start building the package. The project information is displayed in the build page and the progress bar indicates the build status.
- If you need to cancel the build, click **Cancel**. This cancels the current build process, closes the wizard, and takes you back to the **Customizations Page**.
-15. If your build fails, an error message will show up that includes a link to the project folder. You can scan the logs to determine what caused the error. Once you fix the issue, try building the package again.
- If your build is successful, the name of the provisioning package, output directory, and project directory will be shown.
- - If you choose, you can build the provisioning package again and pick a different path for the output package. To do this, click **Back** to change the output package name and path, and then click **Next** to start another build.
- - If you are done, click **Finish** to close the wizard and go back to the **Customizations Page**.
-16. Select the **output location** link to go to the location of the package. You can provide that .ppkg to others through any of the following methods:
-
- - Shared network folder
-
- - SharePoint site
-
- - Removable media (USB/SD) (select this option to apply to a PC during initial setup)
-
-
-### Apply the provisioning package
-
-You can apply the provisioning package to a PC during initial setup or to a PC that has already been set up.
-
-**During initial setup**
-1. Start with a computer on the first-run setup screen. If the PC has gone past this screen, reset the PC to start over. To reset the PC, go to **Settings** > **Update & security** > **Recovery** > **Reset this PC**.
-
- 
-
-2. Insert the USB drive and press the Windows key five times. Windows Setup will recognize the drive and ask if you want to set up the device. If there is only one provisioning package on the USB drive, you don't need to press the Windows key five times, Windows will automatically ask you if you want to set up the device. Select **Set up**.
-
- 
-
-3. The next screen asks you to select a provisioning source. Select **Removable Media** and tap **Next**.
-
- 
-
-4. Select the provisioning package (\*.ppkg) that you want to apply, and tap **Next**.
-
- 
-
-5. Select **Yes, add it**.
-
- 
-
-6. Read and accept the Microsoft Software License Terms.
-
- 
-
-7. Select **Use Express settings**.
-
- 
-
-8. If the PC doesn't use a volume license, you'll see the **Who owns this PC?** screen. Select **My work or school owns it** and tap **Next**.
-
- 
-
-9. On the **Choose how you'll connect** screen, select **Join Azure AD** or **Join a domain** and tap **Next**.
-
- 
-
-10. Sign in with your domain, Azure AD, or Office 365 account and password. When you see the progress ring, you can remove the USB drive.
-
- 
-
-
-**After setup**
-
-On a desktop computer, navigate to **Settings** > **Accounts** > **Work access** > **Add or remove a management package** > **Add a package**, and selects the package to install.
-
-
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> If you apply the setup file to a computer that has already been set up, existing accounts and data might be lost.
-
-## Guidance for accounts on shared PCs
-
-* We recommend no local admin accounts on the PC to improve the reliability and security of the PC.
-* When a PC is set up in shared PC mode, accounts will be cached automatically until disk space is low. Then, accounts will be deleted to reclaim disk space. This account managment happens automatically. Both Azure AD and Active Directory domain accounts are managed in this way. Any accounts created through **Start without an account** will also be deleted automatically at sign out.
-* On a Windows PC joined to Azure Active Directory:
- * By default, the account that joined the PC to Azure AD will have an admin account on that PC. Global administrators for the Azure AD domain will also have admin accounts on the PC.
- * With Azure AD Premium, you can specify which accounts have admin accounts on a PC using the **Additional administrators on Azure AD Joined devices** setting on the Azure portal.
-* Local accounts that already exist on a PC won’t be deleted when turning on shared PC mode. New local accounts that are created using **Settings > Accounts > Other people > Add someone else to this PC** after shared PC mode is turned on won't be deleted. However, any new local accounts created by the **Start without an account** selection on the sign-in screen (if enabled) will automatically be deleted at sign-out.
-* If admin accounts are necessary on the PC
- * Ensure the PC is joined to a domain that enables accounts to be signed on as admin, or
- * Create admin accounts before setting up shared PC mode, or
- * Create exempt accounts before signing out when turning shared pc mode on.
-* The account management service supports accounts that are exempt from deletion.
- * An account can be marked exempt from deletion by adding the account SID to the `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedPC\Exemptions\` registry key.
- * To add the account SID to the registry key using PowerShell:
- ```
- $adminName = "LocalAdmin"
- $adminPass = 'Pa$$word123'
- iex "net user /add $adminName $adminPass"
- $user = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount($adminName)
- $sid = $user.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
- $sid = $sid.Value;
- New-Item -Path "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedPC\Exemptions\$sid" -Force
- ```
-
-
-
-
-## Policies set by shared PC mode
-Shared PC mode sets local group policies to configure the device. Some of these are configurable using the shared pc mode options.
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> It is not recommended to set additional policies on PCs configured for **Shared PC Mode**. The shared PC mode has been optimized to be fast and reliable over time with minimal to no manual maintenance required.
