    MCT error


    I downloaded MCT and started making ISO. Due to failure of internet, I had to cancel operation of making ISO and started again. I am getting error as follows.

    MCT error [​IMG]

    I deleted contents of windows/softwaredistribution/download folder. I also did the following commands in admn command line.
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase

    %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c Cleanmgr /sageset:65535 & Cleanmgr /sagerun:65535

    Then restarted iso making again using MCT. Still I get the above error. How to proceed to make ISO using MCT.

    Removed folders "$WINDOWS.~BT", "$Windows.~WS" and also copied MCT to desktop. From there also tried. Still getting errors.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Media Creation Tool Error: 0x80042405 - 0xA001A

    Hi,

    Eventually got this working (Parallels Desktop on Mac OS, running Windows 10 Pro).

    USB Formatted to FAT32

    - running MCT from desktop = error at exactly 50% when creating media

    - running MCT from USB stick = error at extactly 50% when creating media

    USB Formatted to NTFS

    - running MCT from desktop = worked first time!!

    Hope this helps someone...

    Cheers,

    M

  3. Creator's Update reaches 40% and the following error message appears Windows could not configure one or more system components. To install Windows, . . .

    This didn't work. I got the same error at 40% using the MCT. This is really annoying!

    MCT error

    Easiest thing to do spoof browser to think it is android (or use android device), then you can use mct download site and download iso directly.

    Edit: spoofing edge to think it is an ipad works as well - dead easy to do.

    Open up edge menu options

    Select F12 developer tools

    Screen splits in half horizontally.

    click emulation tab

    Change user agent string to safari (ipad)

    Set resolution as appropriate for your device.

    Keep bottom half open.

    In top half navigate to mct download site. You get redirected to a different site where you can download iso direct.

    Everything was done as you suggested. But when I search for mct download in upper half, lower half is automatically closed and it shows old page either update or download tool. Instead of downloading, running mct directly from edge also gives same error.

    It works best if you navigate to the download page FIRST, then use F12 developers tools. The upper half will automatically change when you set a different emulation.
