microsoft-windows-client-desktop-required-package microsoft-windows-client-desktop-required-wow64-package microsoft-windows-client-features-package microsoft-windows-client-features-wow64-package microsoft-windows-editionpack-professional-package microsoft-windows-editionpack-professional-wow64-package But, ServerAzureStackHCICor is not the same as normal Core edition.
I am unable to install microsoft-windows-editionpack-professional-wow64-package for some reason. All other packages install fine. DISM gives error 0x800f081e=The specified package is not applicable to this image.
wow64-package detects and goes with amd64 package. Once amd64 package is installed, no problem for wow64 one. So, you have to figure out a way to correctly install the amd64 package firstly.

I found the problem: my Windows image is missing some files from SXS assembly, and that's why Microsoft-Windows-EditionPack-Professional-Package and Microsoft-Windows-EditionPack-Professional-wow64-Package will not install.
Xinso, did you just directly installed the ESD files from UUP dump or did you extract them? I tried both ways but Professional package still won't install.
