Abstract
Examples of methods and apparatus are provided for self-provisioning of configuration for a specific-purpose local client having a windows-based embedded image with a write-filter and obviating reinstallation of an entire windows-based embedded image onto the specific-purpose local client. The apparatus may include a retrieval module of the specific-purpose local client configured to facilitate locating a repository server containing a configuration file. The retrieval module may be configured to facilitate obtaining the configuration file from the repository server while the write-filter is enabled, while obviating reinstallation of an entire windows-based embedded image onto the specific-purpose local client. The apparatus may include an apply settings module of the specific-purpose local client configured to apply a configuration change to the windows-based embedded image based on the configuration file or another configuration file.
