💡 WHY AUTOINSTALLER?

Ever heard of GHOST?

It is an "old school" solution to clone a machine to another one. A clone image might have Windows pre-installed, all the applications, drivers, and configurations you need. Easy to deploy, fast to restore, just a USB and you are good to go. However, if you are installing a fresh Windows from an shared image, think about it:

Potential Risks
How about the hardware configuration is not the same? The drivers might not be compatible with the new machine. Good luck with BSOD!
Or, you don't like the idea of sharing a cloned OS with someone else? How about the personalization? How about the privacy? How about the bloatware? You may not want to share your custom configuration with others.
Or, the corrupted image that includes a funny virus/malware? You might not know what has been added in the image.

Do you really trust the distributor?

Here comes AutoInstaller

Your machine, your own personalized Windows, softwares and configuration in your hand, fully installed with automation scripts.

🚨 DISCLAIMER & COMPLIANCE STATEMENT

Notice: The software demonstrated and provided in this repository is completely clean and does not contain, facilitate, or execute any unauthorized activation scripts, crack tools, bypasses, or unlawful modification mechanisms.

1. Windows Licensing & Activation:

   • The tool strictly supports standard product key injection for users possessing legitimate, officially purchased volume/retail licenses (e.g., physical product keys from authorized distributors, digital licenses directly purchased from official channels), or automatic detection of genuine OEM digital product keys embedded within system BIOS/firmware.
   • If no valid license key is provided or detected, the operating system remains entirely unactivated in its default evaluation state. Note: Product keys must strictly correspond to their respective Windows editions.

2. Microsoft Office Deployment:

   • Office installation is handled exclusively via the official Microsoft Office Deployment Tool (ODT) using genuine, unaltered sources downloaded directly from Microsoft content delivery networks (CDNs).
   • The tool solely orchestrates deployment according to predetermined XML configuration files—specifying application components (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access), language packs (e.g., vi-vn, en-us), and user-provided volume product keys (or BIOS-detected credentials).
   • In the absence of a user-provided license key, Microsoft Office installs in an unlicensed state, awaiting official user activation, Microsoft 365 credential login, or product key entry. Note: Product keys are strictly valid only for their corresponding software suites.
   • The tool functions solely as a deployment orchestrator. Misuse of an unlicensed installation (such as unauthorized commercial usage without a valid Microsoft 365 subscription or failure to procure proper licensing) is strictly outside the scope and responsibility of this tool and its author.

3. Third-Party Applications:

   • All third-party applications deployed by this tool are strictly freeware (e.g., Google Chrome Standalone), open-source software (e.g., LibreOffice, OBS Studio), or products offering an official free tier (e.g., TeamViewer).
   • For proprietary software providing trial evaluation periods (e.g., WinRAR), users are explicitly encouraged to purchase a valid commercial license from the respective vendor.

4. Open-Source Derivatives & Liability Waiver:

   • This project is published under the open-source MIT License.
   • The original author (1172005thinh) assumes no responsibility or liability for any third-party forks, redistributions, or modified versions that may inject, modify, or append unauthorized activation scripts, cracks, or malicious payloads.

Absolute Prohibition: This tool does not contain, distribute, or promote any illegal cracking methods, KMS emulators, keygens, or license tampering mechanisms under any circumstances or by any means.

NOTE: I am not a lawyer. This disclaimer is based on my understanding and translated with AI.

🤝 CONTRIBUTION

This is a hobby project, I am the only developer and I am still in school so I can not promise to update the tools regularly. It is my own decision to maintain or discontinue this project at any time.
