Hi, @xin qiji

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

You may deploy the task sequence with "Required".

Required deployments use PXE without any user intervention. The user can't bypass the PXE boot.

This is a very good solution, and in some cases, the administrator manually bootstraps the deployment through pxe, so is there a way to skip pressing F12?

Hi, @xin qiji

For available deployments, someone can skip F12 by renaming the default pxeboot.com to pxeboot.f12 and pxeboot.n12 to pxeboot.com, but this is not the supported way by Microsoft.
