I'm wondering if there's an autounattend script available that can install Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word while Windows is being set up. Additionally, is there a method to automatically connect to a Wi-Fi network during this process? I'm not sure if these things are feasible, but I thought it was worth asking.

If you're looking for a simple way to create an unattended installation answer file, you can use a site like schneegans.de for generating one. But if this is for a business environment, looking into Intune or a third-party remote monitoring and management (RMM) solution is definitely advisable.
If you're working within a domain environment, using Group Policy Objects (GPO) might be beneficial for managing these deployments.
Even without SCCM, imaging can be done using WIM files and Sysprep. However, if you only have a few devices to set up occasionally, going manual and gradually scripting the installations is likely the best approach right now.
Yes, one solution you might consider is using Intune for deployments. It can help you manage installations more efficiently.
Absolutely! You can utilize PowerShell for this task. One of the easiest methods is to use the command 'winget install -h microsoft.office' to handle the Office installation.
That's a great tip! Winget really simplifies the process for automating installs.
Good to know! I guess I’ll just start small and build from there.
