    Dear @AnarethoS

    I tried to create Windows 8.1 WIM option, but while booted-up, I got "Windows could not set a partition active on disk 0. The target disk, partition, or volume does not support the specified operation. The error occurred while applying the unattend answer file's <DiskConfiguration> setting."

    Is there something with Unattend.xml ?

    Please help
    Thanks in advance

    Problem must be in diskconfiguration setting in answer file, something is wrong. Is your bios MBR or UEFI ? Try to post the unattend answer file.

    Copy the autounattend.xml from MBR folder ;)

    Legacy = MBR
    UEFI = EFI

    Read the manual. It has a step by step. Legacy = MBR.

    Is it me or does 411 not function with MBR/Default and 1809-Mar19? Anyone have experience? It is erroring at Copying 0%, "Setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the Setup log files for more information." It could be the combination of two drives storage or low endurance on the primary drive. TIA

    I have no problem with 1903, I installed in MBR and EFI on different PCs, and everything worked correctly, you used the latest ScanState ?

    I just added logs (above). Does the new 1809Oct-v2 (March 2019) need different scanstate? The problem is installing the operating system, not sysprep.
