Windows Deployment Services (WDS)/Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) basics on Server 2019

I build a WDS server and go through what I feel are the most critical parts of MDT/WDS. This is largely an unscripted effort that didn't go perfect but I hope someone gets something good out of it. My application installs didn't go correctly in this video, but the rest of the video should be correct. I do have a followup to the issues experienced in this video.

Some sources used (as of November 28th 2020)

Service account setup

.net framework 2.0-3.5 task

ADK files

MDT

Chrome syntax (correct syntax for this video)

Notepad++

Followup on what went wrong with my task/application install.

"IE/Edge is not a real browser." I really, really like this guy.

Great walkthrough! I recognized where I had to make corrections on my end, and mine was successful! Thank you!

I appreciate this video, and your work not being scripted. It shows more true-to-life scenarios. much appreciated, sir -
I would, however, like to ask if the click of the 'Cancel' button at 10:43 was intentional, when you instructed to click 'OK'

At 33:05 can you confirm where you entered the credentials so that it does not require username/password and domain? Thanks.

If you have tens of apps to install, how can you avoid having to put a check mark for each. Here it was only Chrome and Notepad ++ but as the list grows, I was wondering how to just have them added without the need to put check marks. Thank you for the well made video!

Awesome video! Where did you find the specific permissions needed for the service account? I have been trying to get a reference for them and cannot find anything.

[Gungsterification]

So did you ever get programs to install?

If you leave the key empty will it utilize the computer's OEM license?

When is Active Directory Domain Services suppose to be checked in Server Roles @2:23 ? Assuming you don't need this for moving OUs in the Task Sequence of MDT.

Hi, during this WDT and WDS configuration do we require DHCP configuration? What are the configurations required, could you please explain?

Good video but stop acknowledging you're "cheating" by having reference notes. That is apart of IT mindset because its a gazillion of tricks and know hows to know. So its good you have reference, its not cheating. I do the same.
