I want to sell a pc and have reinstalled Windows 10 and afterwards I installed the correct GPU driver. Now I want to reset the pc so when it gets turned on the next time the windows first-time configuration comes up, but the already installed GPU driver should NOT be removed. I know that this is possible and have done it multiple times already, but I don't remember the command and can't find it anywhere.
windows-10 command-line cmd.exe reset factory-defaults

After searching for a whole hour I found the solution: sysprep
.
Enter this is in the command line and it will shutdown your PC after confirming. The next time you start your PC it will look like a fresh install.
