Error 0x180006 Bootable Rescue Media Builder
Acronis True Image 2018
Windows 8.1
When trying to create an .ISO file I run into the following from the log:
23/04/2019 1:18:43 PM: 00 8724 I00000000: GetDisplayInfo succeeded: DPI: 96, scaling: 100%. Monitors: Resolution: 1440x900, work area: 1378x900, physical DPI: 76.

I have not been able to find any details on what an error 0x180006 is or how to fix this.
My motherboard is an ASUS P8H77-M PRO running the latest BIOS
I have disabled Secure Boot
My C:\Users\user1\AppData\Local\Temp\MntTMP was (and still is after creation failure) empty
I can create Linux media to a USB flash drive but this does me little good since it is not a Linux system (unless you can use it to restore a WIndows 8.1 system).
Any advice gratefully accepted.
Regards, Oz

Steve,
I had already done that and posted the log file above, but will repeat it here:

The ADK version was the latest from Microsoft for Windows 8.1 (and was a bit hard to find). The rescue media builder fails whether it is installed or not. I note that on another Windows 8.1 machine, I can happily create .ISO rescue media with no ADK installed.
Not sure where to go from here, but I appreciate your interest/help.
Any idea what the error 0x180006 is?

Oz, Acronis do not publish the meaning of any of the error codes unfortunately!
When we have seen issues involving the .wim file previously, this has been caused because the .wim didn't get upgraded when the application was, and the solution was to delete the contents of:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Acronis\TrueImageHome\WinPE
then do a Repair Install to get the correct .wim file (or hosting .dll file in later versions) put back.
To do a Repair Install, simply install the latest Full Installer program (as Administrator) from your Acronis Account without uninstalling the current ATI application - this will offer you the choice of Repair or Uninstall.
