Same answer though. Real world has dictated to most folks that task sequences 
simply work better because they address many challenges that Windows doesn't 
address or actually creates during the upgrade.

I prefer to drive a "Ferrari" but real-world dictates that I can't because I'm 
simply too big to fit in one and I don't make enough money to afford the 
insurance let alone the car payments.

I understand that if primary does not work for you, then fall back to secondary.

Not sure where you're getting that from. Both solutions are fully supported. 
Also, keep in mind that even if that were somehow a true statement, it doesn't 
mean they are the better choice.

Drawn toward Servicing Plans because tasks use media files versus ESD files and 
media is 3.5GB versus 2.5GB for ESD. Also we want to automate (with 
supervision), and also Microsoft endorses Servicing Plans as preferred.

Your point about new options in 1709 is probably right and probably will hold 
what I am looking for.

Thanks for taking the time to point this out. Appreciate it.

This is supposedly fixed when upgrading from Win 10 1703. Of course you can't 
really test that until 1709 releases. Mr. Niehaus may be able to add detail (or 
correct me if I'm wrong)?

Subject: [MDT-OSD] Windows 10 Feature Updates removing customizations - options?


We have a few customizations (pdf handler, etc.) to Windows 10 that are getting 
undone after feature updates are applied. Right now we are handling this by 
using Task Sequence deployment within SCCM to run some post-update scripts. We 
really want to get on Servicing Plans in SCCM but have to solve the 
feature-updates-undoing-our-customizations issue.

Can anyone offer insight on options for re-customizing in the Servicing Plan 
world, and possibly even insights on whether Microsoft may be taking any steps 
to help remove this pain point?
