Unknown Error of MVP_ATIPE_Builder_5.7 and 5.9

Thread needs solution

This is the extension of injecting Acronis 2016 to my own Win8PE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've made my own Win8PEx86 with explorer and Windows GUI present. I've installed Acronis True Image 2016 Build 6581 on my Windows 8.0 English. I use MVP_ATIPE_Builder_59 to copy it to C:\ , i.e. C:\MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9

I run C:\MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9\MVP_ATIPEBuilder.bat                     and
        C:\MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9\RUN_MVP_ATIPEBuilder_v57.bat

I remember this first the I run these batch files which can give me the exact result with expectation. The other day I run these 2 batch file again in the same Windows 8.0, they gave me an unexpected result.

This time after injecting the Acronis True Image 2016 Build 6581 to my own Win8PEx86 by C:\MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9\MVP_ATIPEBuilder.bat  or C:\MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9\RUN_MVP_ATIPEBuilder_v57.bat. Then test with VMWare, after loading all the Windows PE with explorer GUI gone. Instead it shows up the X:\Windows\System32 black command prompt with Acronis 2016 Backup and Restore program pop-up.

This is very strange to me why it can have 2 different result ? Did I done something wrong ? Actually I've mark down the way how to run MVP_ATIPE_Builder .

My procedure is :

1. Make my own Win8PEx86.iso and test in VMWare OK

2. Use UltraISO to extract the sources\boot.wim to "C:\Program Files\Windows Kits\8.0\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\en-us" , and rename it as winpe.wim , of course I've rename the original winpe.wim to winpe.wim.old before.

3. Copy MVP_ATIPE_Builder_5.7 and 5.9 to C:\ , then run the MVP_ATIPEBuilder.bat  or RUN_MVP_ATIPEBuilder_v57.bat , which Acronis Rescue Media Builder pop-up , then I created an AcronisBootablePEMedia.wim in C:\

4. I use UltraISO to open my own Win8PEx64.iso , in the sources I delete the boot.wim and replace it with C:\AcronisBootablePEMedia.wim (of course I rename this AcronisBootablePEMedia.wim to boot.wim). Then save it to C:\test.iso

5. When run with VMWare with test.iso , the above unexpected result happen with command prompt enviroment and Acronis 2016 only.

Please help

Without going back to read your previous forum topic that this one continues from, I am not sure why you are mixing up the above batch command files?

The MVP_ATIPE_Builder 5.9 provides matching versions of the batch file and shortcut to the same, so not sure whether the reference to running RUN_MVP_ATIPEBuilder_v57.bat is a typing error or not?  See screen image showing the contents of the latest 5.9 zip file.

The .bat file shortuct does not seem to be correct here - somehow, you have v57 shortcut mixed with 5.9 application - that is probably the issue

The only reason that 5.9 is using a shortcut is to help ensure that users run with admin privileges.  Also, using the shortcut allows us to resize the Command prompt window automatically since this is a built in feature of a Windows shorcut under properties.  Finally, using the shortcut allows us to keep the full events with a scroll bar when resizing the command prompt window automatically.  

There is no actual functional reason withing the script to use the shortcut though.  If it's giving you issues, you can show hidden files/folders in Windows explorer and find the actual .bat file and just run that instead (you can unhide the file as well permanently when right clicking and selecting properties).  When running the actual .bat file it is a black command prompt (or whatever you have set your command prompt to look like).  When running the shortcut, it uses a light grey background.  If you want to use the shortcut, check the properties of it and make sure it points to the correct location and not some other version of the mvp builder or another folder.

Thanks for both of you , Sir

I have to apologize to your help before. As before you've mentioned that the Windows ADK has to use Win8.1 ADK or Win10 ADK , but when I found the above error , I was using Win8.0 ADK.

That's the main reason why I fail with error. Now I uninstall Win8.0 ADK and install Win10 Anniversary ADK , everything is expected and perfect.

You're right , the 2 batch file is batch and shortcut , I've tested they're the same function , only the other seems to be the command prompt size different.

I've solve my problem now. Thanks for prior notice of installing Win10 ADK , without this I can't solve my problem.

Thanks for all you care.

Peter, glad to hear all is sorted again, thanks for the feedback.
