The basic prerequisites in creating your Windows 10 base box are: I purchased mine from Microsoft but you can use an Windows 10 evaluation version. Vagrant and a Windows 10 ISO file or disc. You'll need a hypervisor ( Virtualbox in my case), Which is a non-trivial process to perform,Īnd you can save a lot of time simply using a base box someone else has created. I suspect this is because box creation is really a task done with your virtual machine tool kit, Vagrant's documentation seems to discourse you from creating your own base boxes. Then on top of this base, build a Windows OS box with the Office Suite & Visio pre-installed. So I decided to create my own Windows 10 base box for Vagrant,

Microsoft doesn't generally give you Vagrant boxes for its product. Vagrant boxes for all the variants of Linux are plentiful sinceīut a product like MS Windows is different. You can find my much easier replacement approach in my Github repository I have no need to build my own Vagrant box. Vagrant Cloud repository baunegaard/win10pro-en), Now that multiple Vagrant boxes are available for Windows 10
