Windows deployment

I’m new to Windows deployments, and I need some help. I’ve gotten as far as setting up a new system from a Windows 11 image downloaded from MS, configuring it/installing software, and then running sysprep.

That’s obviously not all that it does but I prefer the flexibility of SCCM’s management alongside the imaging.

Edit: yeah it’s included if you use Microsoft 365.
