Error OOBESETTING

Post by roadrunnerray »

Trying to install Win10 with my VirtualBox running Linux Mint 19.3 on a ASUS 64 bit laptop.

Have downloaded from the MS website their 64 bit WIN10 ISO file.

Get to the point where I enter my username/password and then asked to set up pin. Enter the pin and receive this error, (OOBESETTING problem, try again?)

The entire installation process is extremely slow.

Three attempts have given me the same result. Any thoughts will be appreciated.

That would be a Windows problem, so you really need to search for specific answers on a Windows Forum/Site unless you have specific with the VirtualBox setup, but to give you a start, OOBE is Windows speak for "Out of the Box Experience Error" see - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/hel ... er-for-the It's unlikely to be anything to do with VirtualBox, unless you are having internet connection problems with the 'Guest' setup.

The Windows 10 Setup process can be a lengthy and slow process, especially if there is a backlog of updates for the setup to download and install.
