I found two ways of getting out of Audit Mode for Win7:
1. Go to the Start> Run.
Type ‘regedit’ and hit enter.
Find and right-click the relevant registry key for your operating system:
Windows XP: AuditInProgress in HKLM\System\Setup
Windows Vista: ImageState in HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\State
Windows 7: ImageState in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup\State Select Modify.
Delete the value and Click OK.
Restart your computer for changes to take effect.
2. you can take it out of Audit Mode by running sysprep/oobe from the command line.
This are both for Win7, which I can assume will work for Win8 as well.
What do we do for Win8. Which approach will bring machine to the original state if sysprep was run by mistake?
