Greetings.
I am experiencing something very strange with our Windows Deployment Servers.
I have WDS 2013 with AIK-8.1 combination server to do our machine deployment. Some of our machines need to have IE11 blocked from installation (for compatibility issue). As in case with IE10 before we installed blocker from microsoft and then captured image. I double checked and the registry keys for the blocker are present in correct location and if I run updates on the machine before capture it doesn't attempt to install IE11.
Problem is during deployment during automatic update step (post application update) the system picks up and installs ie11.
If I remove it by hand after installation is over and run windows update - it's not installed. If I disable auto-update step in installation - and run updates by hand after deployment is finished- then all works as expected and ie11 not installed.
Does anyone else experienced this scenario when blocker doesn't seem to have effect for automated update installation in deployment?
