Title: Build Error:Winre.wim image files were not successfully applied in Target folder

Just following the quick setup guide but not having luck due to this error.

Using latest 1903 ISO.
Run the builder as admin from folder on D drive. Target folder tested with default and fixed path.
Source is downloaded from the Techbench link in the program and extracted to D drive - Win10_1903_V1_English_x64
Windows Defender disabled

Suggestions most welcome.

Ok, you mounted 1903 ISO and copied the contents of ISO in to D:\Win10_1903_V1_English_x64
I see you stated extracted ISO

I also see you stated  Target folder tested with default and fixed path
On Main Opening Page "Win10XPE" Interface - did you set the source and is the media information populated ??

[attach=1]

No Need to use the "SOURCE" Tab

Thanks for taking time to assist James.

Yep, looks similar to your pic but different version, you're using a windows preview? (1907?)

It appears to extract the winre.wim without issues and then fails at this point.

I used 7-zip to extract the iso, did not mount and copy.  Any issues with that?  (I've done it for years without issue)

yes, using current preview release - But that should not matter with your issue...

As far as 7zip extract - I am unsure - never tested that way... I always copy contents...

after error - the log will pop up - at bottom of log select "Save as Log.html"

Browse into "Win10XPE" Folder - compress log file and then attach to forum post..

Although I believe you need 5 posts before attachment allowed

Or in log you will see warning with an exit code

Wimlib Apply Winre.wim in Target Folder return : %ExitCode%

The error code is:   Wimlib Apply Winre.wim in Target Folder return : 57

And according to http://theoven.org/index.php?topic=2421.msg26763#msg26763 it means WIMLIB_ERR_SET_ATTRIBUTES                     = 57,

I assume set attributes means the usual windows set attributes command, read-only, etc.  So that sounds like permissions or the extracted winre.wim is corrupted (tried again using win 10 mount and copy, no different).

Mega link to log file in case that can help: https://mega.nz/#!yyoSEKIZ!gRR8nY8cA3QhoFMC_vqlBSbtVXegC94R6pArxTxP0L8

Thanks again for the help (10.30pm, heading to bed).

I am sorry, but I could not reproduce the error....
Using any of the "Build Type" Options

Please allow windows defender Exception on D:\Win10XPE folder
Please re-download project and overwrite existing D:\Win10XPE folder
set source and try again without any additional selections

Edit:
I must assume D:\ is a DATA Drive with enough space to handle the extraction...

re-downloaded both win10xpe and iso.  extracted them to a different drive with 200GB free space (SSD, was previously a HDD with 170GB free).

windows defender has the exceptions and is disabled in any case.

very peculiar.

so working now ??

Welp, I'll let you know how I continue.  I got it to work on another system with the same files copied over.  It is definitely getting stuck at extraction/reduction of winre.wim.  The other system doesnt get used much but some differences between them:
old/new
1803/1903
intel i3-4100/ryzen 7 2700X
HTPC system/gaming-work system (I install everything including easy anticheat on the new system.  EAC maybe? nephew wanted to play fortnite)
Standard local account/Office 365(Azure) connected pc (although I tried a local admin acct)


Thanks a lot for your help James and sorry for not trying the different pc sooner.  This is quite a new system (reinstalled a couple months ago) and I found it hard to understand what was going wrong.  I also assumed someone might have had the same problem.  Add to that it's my first time using the builder (which is too simple, really, I expected it to be more difficult).

Anyhow, thanks again.  I've got a pe boot drive now so I'll see if it works after upgrading the older pc to 1903.

Funny Really, because some members are Windows 7 Users and I am a Windows 8.1 & 10 User...
My guess is it something about installed software and pretty sure not the OS itself

I know the topic is quite old, but if someone face this issue in the future.

The Wimlib return:57 means WIMLIB_ERR_SET_ATTRIBUTES = 57, This is caused because NTFS compression is disabled in registry on the drive used to build XPE.

Setting

Code: [Select]

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem\NtfsDisableCompression=0

Or at least not disabling NTFS compression on the drive used to build, Fixes the problem.

So Where would a User find that setting from within the OS Interface ?? Not the Registry...

There is no Gui for these settings, Microsoft never disable this. But Third party system optimization software sometime does.

Code: [Select]

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem]
"NtfsDisableCompression"=dword:00000000

Create a reg file with this and merge it into problematic machine. Reboot computer to apply changes.
