A. A known issue is that when using the AdminPassword unattendedinstallation option and it contains a * character it means the install procedureshould set the Administrator account to use a blankpassword. This means that if it appears anywhere in the password then a blank Administratorpassword will be set.
[GuiUnattended]
AdminPassword=John*Savill
The fix is to not have a * in the Administrator password.
