Yes it is the only difference. I went back to my original XML file and using Notepad replaced the "Value" and "PlainText" settings, re-ran the build and it completed successfully.
Same task sequence (factory default client sequence) if I use my unattend with the encrypted passwords it fails. If I replace those fields with plain text versions it succeeds.

WSIM definitely encrypts passwords it finds in the file when it is saving. But MDT shouldn't care that is happening. Is that the only difference that you are seeing in the Unattend.xml?

My existing Windows 7 builds were failing. [cid:[email protected]] If I created a brand new task sequence the build would complete. So I compared my original Unattend.xml with the factory default and found that the passwords in my original were not in plain text while those in the default were. [cid:[email protected]] When I was running MDT 2013 (RTM) I modified the XML through the MDT console (triggering Windows System Image Manager) to set the "ProtectYourPC" to disable auto updates. That was the only change I made. I'm guessing that WSIM set the value to encrypt the passwords by default? Anyway, does MDT 2013 U1 have issues with encrypted passwords in the XML?
