Acronis Media Creator - Create WinPE files using files specified. How?
What are the exact instructions to create a WIM file using files you specify (option 2 in the Create PE Image Wizard), rather than having the wizard create the image automatically from the AIK?
I've tried selecting the mount folder, the boot.wim file directly or the whole folder that createpe.cmd creates. None of the options work. They always give me errors about access is denied. The error from selecting a WIM file implies I should be be selecting a folder, but not sure which one.
See attached pictures for the error messages.
The Snap Deploy 5 user guide is completely vague on this and offers no exact instructions. Has someone gotten this to work and can provide exact instructions?

Thanks for the response!
So I did that. You can see that in my first error message.
I tried it both with the WIM mounted on /mount and without it mounted.
Can't figure what the dialog actually wants me to select. Really wish the documentation would be more specific.

The only other thing I can think of is that Snap Deploy isn't compatible with the version of the ADK you have installed. What version are you using? Have you tried other versions?

I'm using Win10 ADK 1607, which I believe is the supported version, since Media Builder won't even detect any other Win 10 ADK.
I've tried using Win10 ADK 1709 and 1703 as well. Neither work.
There definitely needs to be more specific documentation on this.
