When performing guest OS customization, I see a log entry in the C:\Windows\Temp\vmware-imc\guestcust log that says:
[2017-08-10T09:24:39 DEBUG] Registry value 'CustomRescheduleRebootDelay' is not set. Returning default value: 120
This causes the Guest OS customization to take an extra 4 minutes (since it seems to reboot twice). Where does this registry value live? I tried adding a new REG_DWORD named CustomRescheduleRebootDelay to Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMWare, Inc.\VMWare Tools
However, this had no effect...
