Running Litetouch over a pxe boot, the client machine returns an error 'The value for the attribute is not valid : language' in the Litetouch.wsf script

This is a newly built deployment server using the latest ADK and MDT installs.

I've never seen this before. Any ideas?

    Uninstalling the ADK and installing the previous version did the trick. Obviously a bug in the latest version.

    I too am having this issue when using the latest version of everything. However, I was able to find an old backup with a version that worked. It appears to be an issue with the PE add-on for the ADK, or the ADK itself (can't be 100% sure since the file appears in multiple locations).

    I uninstalled the newest version of the ADK and PE labeled for Windows 11, and installed an older version of the ADK and PE labeled for Windows 10 (ADK product version 10.1.14393.0; PE product version 10.1.19041.1), and everything works as it should now.

    I am still using the newest build of the MDT, the properties of the installer show version 6.3.8456.1000

    Here is a download link to a zip folder with the ADK, PE, and the same MDT installer I used: LINK
    Let me know if this works for you.

    Hi, @Robin Lund

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

    We may try to regenerate the boot images to see if it helps.

    To do this, right-click on the deployment share and select "Update Deployment Share". Make sure to select the "Completely regenerate the boot images" option.
