This occurs due to and old error in notepad. Open the file in an other text editor, like "KEDIT". And everything will look ok.
Last 8.0 update was the final one. If you really want to "update" 8.0 then there is no reason to not install 8.1 (unless your cpu does not support it)
Hi Komm, Latest version for Windows 8.1 did not solve the issues I reported earlier. It was now possible to save a DISM log file with the help of the editor you proposed. Here is the output.

That was my conclusion at first. But the WIM was fine. I have at last identified the issue. On an English Windows 8.1 enterprise it is not possible to maintain a Spanish Windows 8.1 pro offline image. I repeated the KUC procedure on a Spanish Windows 8.1 Pro system and it was OK. - Both W8.1 installations were identical except language and SKU (same programs, same config) - I used only rollup-1 images (both for installed Windows and the images to maintain) - The first image with .Net3.5 integrated that failed running KUC on W8.1 Enterprise English, ran OK with KUC on W8.1 Pro Spanish. (After previous errors, I discarded the changes to the WIM). Next step is finding out exactly what the issue is: Spanish vs. English or Pro vs. Enterprise. I’m sure this is some error on MS side and not intended. Anyway here is the information if anybody encounters a similar issue. Cheers.
New KUC for Win8.1 is out ([LEAK] Windows 8.1 Update 2014 MSU (9600.16610.140201-1007) not included!)
Any chance to be able to set the repo/working folder paths with custom paths and kuc remembering it every time?
