Windows Unattended Setup: Office, Currency, Location, Seconadry Keyboard layouts etc.

[Guest Luponius]

Greetings,

 

I am currently interested in setting up a relatively comprehensive, unattended answer file which hopefully covers most (if not all) configuration settings, thus shaving away time and pressure during deployment.

 

The following are a few points I would like to cover and I'd appreciate any help on the matter.

 

- Be able to over-ride the default currency setting forced when specifying keyboard layout. (E.g. set default keyboard layout to English UK but use the € currency).

 

- Setup the Maltese keyboard to be recognized as a backup layout. The code specified was [<InputLocale>2057:00000809; 66618:0001043a</InputLocale>] and that should incidate the en-UK and Maltese 48-Key. Sadly the latter is simply not being recognized.

 

- I am also wondering if any Office configuration could be forced either through the Unattended answer file or otherwise (such as default save formats) when the image is being deployed.

 

- Specifying Location and such.

 

Sadly no matter how much I googled I was unable to be led to proper documentation which led to any conclusive results. I am interested to see if any of this is possible, and if so, the related documentation which could lead me there.

 

I am also curious as to whether or not several details should be repeated when using a similar component under a different configuration pass.

 

Thank you for your assistance.
