Fastest way to setup a new windows install

2

0

Is there a way I can install windows on a VM play with it for a while, install the apps I need, then take that instance and install it on the actual hardware?

I have done slipstream before, but find for just a single install it doesn't save any time, and takes a while to make. It was about 5 years ago I did this. Are there better tools for this now?

Any other suggestions?

You forgot to mention which version of Windows. – Kamil – 2014-10-01T18:06:55.527

Oops, I am actually playing with '10', but don't expect many tools to support that. So lets say 8.1. – sheamus – 2014-10-01T21:08:10.367

This is not best place for jokes like this ;) There is no such thing like Windows 10. I allowed myself to edit your tags according to your comment above. – Kamil – 2014-10-01T21:32:59.023

@Kamil umm.. I think you need to keep up with the news Apparently, they are skipping '9'.
