ewfmgr : Failed getting protected volume configuration with error 1

Question

Hello,

What can cause this error ?

I tried my image on 2 vendors of MSATA disks.

Till now I worked with several vendors of SBCs \ Disks and never got this error.

Thank you,

Zvika  

Answer 1

How is the overlay configured: RAM or RAM-REG?

Answer 2

Hi Sean,

The overlay is configured: RamReg

This works fine in several other boards.

Thank you,

Answer 3

I'm not sure, but I believe that this can happen if the partition's "position" on the media has changed. Does following command fix your problem?

ewfcfg /install-confugration

Best regards.

Answer 4

I know for a fact I have done this to myself, both on 7, 8 and 10.

How did you install your image?

(I'm sorry, I'm reaching back into the past here.)

If your DISK ID is different from your EWF, it will likely throw a wobbly.

I think I posted in these forums about it, if not, let me know and I'll dig up my notebooks.

Answer 5

Hello,

This is the way I install the image.

First I ran tap on this SBC under WinPE. 

The PMQ file created was imported into a new answer file. 

Then I added the "Application Compatiblity" template and also:

 Enhanced Write Filter with HORM

I created an image and burned it on the target by running setup.exe

Thank you,

Zvika 

Answer 6

What did you put in for settings for Enhanced Write Filter in the answer file?

Answer 7

Hello,

I booted the target PC with IBQ-64-SP1 downloaded from Microsoft. 

During the installation I added HORM. 

I can not tell why but with this procedure, ewfmgr is OK.

The procedure I used is: create a PMQ and then import it to an empty answer file and then add application compatibility. 

Thank you,

Zvika 

Answer 8

In ICE what did you put in for settings for the Enhanced Write Filter in the answer file?
