Description
Really cool work here!
I found a possible enhancement. My VM host had a hardening to User Right and local administrator didnt get the "Manage auditing and security log" (Only DA do) and this give access error (A required privilege is not held by the client. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070522)) at the "Applying image to VHDX" part. Maybe checking User Rights at the begining of the 2_createParentDisks.ps1

Research direction
Start by reading 2_createParentDisks.ps1, especially the beginning and the "Applying image to VHDX" stage. Trace how the script currently surfaces the privilege error, then define the early user-rights check and its failure message. Done means a missing "Manage auditing and security log" right is identified before image application begins.
