Windows 10: Why I am getting this MDT error.

It is happening when I try to update deployment share. It is happening with win11 and win10 Deployment shares. I am using the latest ADK+PE and MDT. Have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Reinstalled windows to a newer version. My operating system is Win11, latest beta channel. Tried disabling AV and Firewall. Yes the wim file exists, have tried from Extracted iso and a mounted iso. All MDT-ADK,Deployment shares and drive are shared. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Error Unable to open the specified WIM file. === Making sure the deployment share has the latest x86 tools ===

:)

 

MDT install application with the credentials for connecting to network shares

Windows Updates reinstalled by MDT ?

Sorry for a delayed reply.

You are not doing anything wrong. I would not bother to update image before deploying it because, as you noticed, MDT will do it in any case.

 

Windows Updates reinstalled by MDT ?


Hello

I have a Windows 10 1607 hyper-v reference image I update with all Windows updates prior to capturing and deploying. I recently noticed that when MDT gets to the Windows update step it is reinstalling many if the same updates I had already added to the image. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
