Export Windows Server 2012 Configuration

By rodney.buike, on July 12th, 2012

So I have been playing with WS 2012 a bit lately and found this very interesting feature in the Add Roles and Features Wizard that allows you to export the current configuration to an XML file.  When you get to the end of the wizard click on Export Configuration Settings!

    Ok, but what can you do with it? I can’t find anywhere to import the config file.

      You have to use PowerShell to import the configuration. I guess I should have added that tidbit of information to the post ;)
