    Yes I did. When booting up each ISO's in a VM they both contain the exact same Windows Editions. There is no difference in the two produced ISOs from what I can tell other the modified date and about 1gb in size and file name. the attached images are from one of the ISO's. Took a long ass time to compile the iso's even on my ryzen 7 2700x with 32gb ram and samsung evo 970 pro m.2

    Not a big deal was just curious as I thought they should be basically the same, in theory.

    My bad just realized they differ by about 10.5 MBs not 1GB. My bad. But still makes me wonder what is different between the 2.

    Yeah, 1 GB difference is not something to ignore :)

    the feature update contain extra dynamic updates
    besides, servicing WIM with DISM will result in a little size differencing

    That looks like a different build. Ohh I see what you did there. This is my first time actually using the UUP dump downloader gui. I see the KB Update differences between the 2 now. Thanks.

    Hey guys, after a botched attempt at using UUP dump downloader 1.2.1 where the laptop went down during the ISO creation, i'm left with a folder called "W10UImount" on C: that needs different permissions to delete.

    Any tips to quickly delete the folder, or do i have to remove the permissions of the folder individually? My search-foo is failing me and i can't find anything related to it around here. Thanks in advance.

    First unmount the mounted image, this command will do that and cleanup stale files, when it has run succesfully you should be able to delete the mount folder,
    Run this command in an elevated cmd:
    Code:
    DISM /Cleanup-Wim

    OMG, i've been looking for the unmount command but couldn't find it, i thought it had another removal method and forgot to check those. Thanks!

    What exact tool did you run?

    Is the convertconfig.ini present?

    Hmm, seems there were problems getting the needed database info. Works here (note: the missing name is due to the process isn't getting info in first run):

    First, I tried UUP downloader 1.2.2.exe That's the first screen shot I posted.

    It seems to download everything just fine, but ISO creation fails due to missing files (?)

    So then I tried the command line version by Slave77 and it doesn't work, due to missing files, but it doesn't tell me what is missing -- it just says "The system cannot find the path specified".

    I've used both of these in the past. The last time I used them was about 2 months ago and they worked just fine, so I'm trying to figure out what changed. I even went to Github and re-downloaded the latest version of each one.

    Apparently something is missing but I can't figure out what it is.

    I just tried to use "Feature update to Windows 10, version 1809 (17763.379) amd64", from the UUP site itself, and it goes completely wrong with a few hundred "access denied" errors just before it makes the ISO. It does still manage to create the ISO, which I wouldn't dare to run!

    Older versions seem to work fine though.

    This is all using the Aria2 and convert method.

    EDIT:
    Same result with Cumulative Update for Windows 10 Version 1809 (17763.379) amd64, direct from the site.

    In the past I've always run it from G:\UUPdownloader and it always worked.
    Yes.
    AV turned off just to be sure.

    Here's the weird thing. When I run uupdownload_1_2_2.exe and it tries to create the ISO,
    One of the error messages is "FINDSTR: Cannot open ConvertConfig.ini"
    but that file is there and I can open it with a text editor just fine.

    The other error message is
    "File not found - TEMP\UUPS_ESD.TXT"
    "UUP Edition file is not found in specified directory"

    But the file is there.

    What exact AV do you run?

    And what is the path to the folder you run 1.2.2 from?

    Webroot. Same AV I was running two months ago when everything worked just fine. I tried turning it off, but it didn't help.

    G:\UUPdownloader

    Same path I've always used. Two months ago it worked, now it doesn't.

    Anyway, I want to thank you guys for your help. You don't owe me anything and I really appreciate you taking the the time to try and help me figure this out

    However, it's turning into a waste of time. It seems like you aren't even reading what I've written because you keep asking me questions that I have already answered. Somehow I screwed something up and now I have to figure it out.

    in case there is something hidden try extracting the download to another directory

    e.g. G:\Z-UUP-Downloader
