Hey,

everytimes i get an error trying to discard an image. While it does not matter which image I use.

here is my log, generated with Win Toolkit lastest version

IMAGEX /UNMOUNT [/COMMIT] [image_path]

Unmounts a WIM image from the specified path.

image_path - The path to be unmounted.

Without FLAGS:

Lists mounted images.

Accepted FLAGS:

/COMMIT

Saves changes to the mounted WIM file. If not specified changes are discarded.

Example:

imagex /unmount /commit c:\mounted_images

Note! I work with Win7 x64. What`s wrong here? Also Files and folders are not in use!

When i use imagex arguments, my image will discard correct, but it is not possible when i trying Win Toolkit

Thx for helping

I'm guessing it's Vista you've mounted, unfortunately i don't have a copy to test it with. I will check the code to see what's going on.

I've received logs in the past about this issue, it seems to always be the boot.wim?

Thx for your reply

It does not matter what boot.wim using.

further i updated my waik with latest sp1 and also here the same issue. i`m not able to discarding a boot.wim (sp1), neither this nor other

I meant it's always boot.wim and not install.wim?

Have your tried SP2?

What Windows is currently installed on your machine?

Sorry for my mistake. It`s seems to be ok when i use an install.wim. Tested with install.wim from Win8 RC

Currently i work with Win7 x64 SP1 and WAIK Win7 SP1

I've made a few changes so hopefully that will help, but more importantly i've made some enhancements to the error and it should now show the new error box which shows you a lot more information without filling up the screen. When i release v24 please test this again and attach the log. Thanks.

Great work Legolash2o. By the time i´m able to discarding all boot.wim`s which previously did not work.

You make my day :dancing:

It's fixed? Wasn't expecting that, thanks

Damn, on my Notebook Win7 x64 Win Toolkit works fine, also on another Devices. Only exception on my big Workstation Core I5 Win7 x64 Win Toolkit wan`t work.

Up on Outpost Security 7.1 Free i have allways the same programs installed as on my another PC`s. Anything prevents me from that Win Toolkit can works correct.

It is possible to cleanup all wim filters e.g. also to cleanup all filters in my registry?

It already checks for WIM Filters when loading WinToolkit.

Hmmm very strange.

I`m using GImageX v 2.0.17 for mounting & discarding every BOOT.WIM File. No Problems

Only with Win7 Toolkit i have this problems, so, but the error must be at Win7 Toolkit. I`m already in despair

Are you still experiencing this error?
