I understand the overall general purpose of what sysprep is. But I'm not sure if it created a file or something I can use as the golden image to deploy onto my other systems. I was hoping it was gonna create an iso or wim file that I could throw onto a USB thumb drive and use that to install Windows on my other machines.

I missed a class somewhere. Funny I don't remember skipping any of those classes. 😔

It seems you do not understand what sysprep does at all. Without SCVMM (iirc) you cannot create templates in Hyper-V. If you can you just sysprep the VM, shut it down, convert it to a template and you can re-deply it as many times as you want.
