Overview
SnapPE is a PowerShell WPF EXE used to take screenshots within WinPE. You will need to add PowerShell from the ADK for this to work.
In this example I have included SnapPE in Windows Setup (boot.wim Index 2)

I will need to open the Command Prompt by holding down Shift + F10. I can then launch SnapPE in the Command Prompt

Pressing the Snap button will hide SnapPE and record the image as a PNG. The default location of the saves will be in X:\SnapPE

In the case of Windows Setup, saving to the Virtual Drive X won't help much, so I can WIPE my Hard Drive with a nifty script I have embedded, and redirect my snapshots

If I added Microsoft DaRT to Windows Setup, I can move the Snaps that I have already taken to the C Drive so I will have them after Windows comes online, or just redirect to a USB Drive

Now I can take my screenshots during Windows Setup

And when I am all done, everything should be saved in C:\SnapPE

The following screenshots were captured with SnapPE
