Sysprep Windows 10 Enterprise

I did a clean install (not an upgrade) of Windows 10 Enterprise and am unable to sysprep the Surface Pro 3.  Error message is:

Sysprep was not able to valid your Windows installation.  Review the log file at c:\windows\system32\sysprep\panther\setupact.log for details.  After resolving the issue, use Sysprep to validate your installation again.

Here's what was in the setupact.log:

All the Windows forum post to fix this issue is for an upgrade.  Has anyone resolved this?  Thanks!

you need to uninstall the store apps for that user prior to sysprep.  the one app currently stopping it is
Microsoft.Appconnector_1.3.3.0_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe, but there can be others beside this.  you can use power shell as that user to remove the apps. unplug the nic reboot and sysrprep

I have a blog on the app crap here:
