Windows 10 ESD Repository

The ISO itself was generated just fine. I was talking about the new option that copy/move all ESD's to the UUP's folder for future use.

 

Me too

In that example,

I've installed win 15063 (fast ring) in a VM, let WU prepare to install till: "reboot" appeared, shut down VM, mapped/mounted the vmdk and copied the complete "c:\win......\software.....\downloads\Delta UUP download folder" over to the UUPs folder, next i created the ref esd's by running v8 on the delta UUP folder from "c:\win......\software.....\downloads", copied over the ref esd's to another folder and ran them again on v8.

 

How can you mount vmdk? This can be useful to me for speed the UUP folder's uploads in esES

Thanks

 

I understood what you are saying but in my case I didn't copied the files from windows>softwaredistribution>download folder, I gave that path to uup convert before restart the computer.
And all worked fine, it is only that the uup convert was supposed to copy (at least what I thought) all ESD's from the "temp" folder to the UUP's folder, but it didn't.

 

Will test tomorrow on my testsystem or in a VM Maybe it's a rights problem in "c:\win....\softwa....\downloads\UUP download folder".

Thanks buddy I really appreciate your support, and you could be right about that.

 

Moving ESDs

I found the problem of the move ESDs to UUPs folder isn't working (partially).

What is happening is that if you copy UUP files from "C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\15c201be..." to UUPs folder it works but if you use that directory instead it doens't!

Why?

Because the variable %UUP% keept the last directory that was used so, we cannot use [move "%CD%\temp\*.ESD" "%UUP%"], we will have to use the batch path instead ["%~dp0UUPs"] or set UUP="Directory" first.

The proof is below:

ERROR: UUP Edition

Trying to reuse ESDs moved from temp to UUPs folder and getting this error:

============================================================
ERROR: UUP Edition file is not found in specified directory
============================================================

Press any key to exit.

Analysing the UUPs folder I found that "Professional_en-us.esd" wasn't present so, I copied it from the hexfolder and ran the code again and no error whatsoever.

The question is "why" that file isn't being moved from temp to UUPs folder?
I couldn't yet found anything that explains it.

Any insight?

 

MetadataESD (Professional_en-us.esd) never exist/moved/created in temp folder

what exactly are you trying to accomplish?

 

I was just trying to reuse the esds that it is already in the uups folder (to create a new iso) but it give me that error.
It isn't a big deal I can use the ones at windows.old directory but it doesn't make sense because it has been done already.
I guess that was the main reason why you created that options to move esds right?

 

Sorry buddy, I am confused! If it was never been there (temp folder) so, how the code created the first iso without asking for it and no pop up error?

 

What did you use to create iso?
i mean, did you put files in UUPs folder? or pasted path to download directory?

 

I pasted: "C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution\Download\15c201be..." when I first created the iso.

 

If you enabled RefESD, then the created ESD files will be moved to the same pasted path
