Technician PC: Windows 8 Enterprise x64, connected to internet
ADK Tested: 8.0 x86, 8.1 x86
Tested install.wim files: Win 8 x64 Enterprise SA download, Win 2012 x64
Both install.wim files are located on local hard drive with Everyone group given full control of folder and files. SIM launched with normal and admin elevation. Tested with and without AV running
Error claims I need version 6.3.9431.0 - if I go to SIM > Help this is theexact version listed there. I checked the ImageCat.exe file location is valid and it exists. Any suggestions?
