I need to inject custom drivers to wim file offline.
I'm using standard scenario described on MSDN http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh825206.aspx: mount, add-components (WMI, .NET4), add-drivers (signed, work correctly on windows 7 & 2012, x86/64), unmount, makewinpemedia.
However, when I booting from iso (on VMWare), drivers not loading.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
The most important thing while developing Win PE driver is to follow the architecture(using 32 bit on 64 bit Win PE can cause failures)
Follow the steps:-
Take the 'Custom Windows PE' rescue CD option in the rescue CD wizard.
If you haven't previously installed the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK), then this will need to be downloaded and installed. This is a big (1.7GB) download, so please be patient. The WAIK download dialog will be shown. Just click 'Continue' and be patient while the integration completes.
Once the integration is finished cancel the rescue media wizard.
Download and run 'inject.exe' from here:
http://updates.macrium.com/reflect/utilities/inject.exe
This will automatically inject the drivers into the windows image file (WIM) and will take a few minutes.
Once completed, take the rescue media build wizard again, select the 'Custom Windows PE' and click through to the final page.
Click the 'Rebuild' button to re-integrate the WAIK. This will not need to download and install the WAIK again, so will be much quicker.
Once completed, if you now burn the rescue CD the drivers will be integrated and you should have no problems booting with the CD and recognizing your local RAID volumes.
Have you gone through Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) you can have a look at the following link it may help you.

Windows PE always uses the same basic VESA mode video driver regardless of the card in use.
Please check the link below.

This particular link for creation of the ISO with Windows Automated Installation Kit (AIK) can also help you get going.

i did spent some time with Win PE,there is a image below are you getting the same message while booting with VM?
There are some additional steps given in the follwing link you can check if it works this way

I have installed the latest versions of power automate desktop and browser extension, and I'm using the Microsoft Edge browser, before the latest update come, it worked perfectly, but after the update it not working.
every time I run the flow it shows this error:
"Failed to assume control of Microsoft Edge (Communication with browser failed. Try reloading extension)."
With the new version you also have to make sure developer tools are enabled in your browser.
See the information here about manifest v3
When I updated to the latest version of PAD I also had major issues lucky I was able to roll back to the previous version.
I'm aware this might not solve your issue, but the only way I could get mine working again was to uninstall 2.27 and reinstall 2.26, lucky I had the install for 2.26 as I couldn't find a previous version download link on the MS website anywhere.
Ok so I want to get a virtual machine with Windows so I can download applications only on Windows (Not on OSX (I'm on Big Sur 11.2.3 by the way)), so I downloaded VirtualBox, then downloaded the Windows thing which apparently I have to (as seen in one of the pics) (you can tell I have hardly any experience with vms), then I created a new vm in the VirtualBox app, and left all the default settings except for the type of hard drive (which is also in one of the pictures), then I clicked Start and it asked me to add a 'virtual optical disk file', so I clicked on the folder button then clicked add in the top left, and it gave me this error code:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine w10.
The VM session was aborted.
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: SessionMachine
Interface: ISession {c0447716-ff5a-4795-b57a-ecd5fffa18a4}
as you can also see in one of the pictures below. Also, when I leave the screen for a couple of minutes right before I click on the previously mentioned add button, this appears:
but I tried just leaving it to load, and nothing happened. I have tried uninstalling using the uninstall tool twice, rebooting my Mac, etc etc, and yes I have allowed everything I need to in the Security settings. I'm not installing it on a moderator account, but the Windows 10 virtual optical disk file is in Documents which the account I'm on has read and write access to, and obviously the actual VM is in applications.
Thanks so much!
Here's the previously mentioned image of the one changed setting:
And here's the pic of the Win10 64-bit I had to install:
thanks everyone!
VirtualBox Version: 6.1.22 r144080 (Qt5.6.3)
Host Operating System: MacOS BigSur
I came across exactly same issue, where clicking on add to choose image was crashing the dialog. This issue persists in the latest version of Virtual Box for Mac.
I could figure out couple of ways to avoid clicking on Add button to choose image.
First Option:
Steps:
Click on Settings to open settings window for your VM.
Choose Storage
Select Empty disc and choose Disk image by clicking small disc icon in the Attributes section. Please follow the image to have visual instructions.
Second Option:
Steps:
Click on VM's Normal start
Once you get the option to choose image, simply cancel the dialog.
Now click on the small disc icon in the bottom of VM's dialog to choose the image.
Hope this helps. Feel free to comment if you find this post useful.
I had the same message because of permissions at directories where the hard disks were stored in. So, just execute VirtualBox 'As Administrator' and all run well.
I was getting the same error on Ubuntu 22.04 machine while trying to start an existing or a new VM-
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine NuacareRocky.
The VM session was aborted.
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

I tried a few things as suggested on youtube, but nothing worked. finally, I just upgraded the extension and it worked.
I have a Mainframe/HOST Application to automate using Tosca 11.0, I am unable to scan/steer elements in mainframe screen.
Solution found in Tricentis Support -
The Tosca Host Engine is installed by default as part of a complete Tricentis Tosca installation.
All information regarding software versions and hardware requirements for the engine can be found in the "System Requirements for Tricentis Tosca".
The file PCSHLL32.DLL needs to exist in the system and the operating system needs to know the path to this file (with the system variable PATH).
The 3270 terminal emulation needs to be initialized correctly, so that the connection to the HOST system to be tested can be established. Additional information is available from your system administrator.
I couldn't locate PCSHLL32.DLL in my PC.
Has anyone faced same issue? can someone help where to get PCSHLL32.DLL and get HOST engine working.
I had this problem for a while. I kept trying to figure out how to install the Host module because I couldn't find that PCSHLL32.DLL on my system...
Turns out HOST was already there... I just had to get Tosca Commander configured to find my terminal app (I'm using QWS3720 from Jolly Giant).
Try this - Go into Tosca Settings, and go to Settings > Special Engines > HostEngine> Emulation Environment and check the following settings:
1) Emulation Title: this should be the window title of your terminal emulator. * works as a wildcard. Since QWS3270 changes it's window name to match it's session, we just use * in this field.
2) Emulation Type: try to find your terminal emulator's maker listed here... Mine is set to Jolly Giant.
3) Session ID: this is the important one. This is the HLLAPI ID of the term window, basically the handle that automation needs to know to "see into" the terminal window. it seems to typically be set to "A" (same as with QuickTest Pro/UFT).
Once these settings are correct, then TRY to scan your terminal window. Launch your terminal emulator first, CONNECT with it (to start up the HLLAPI), then run Tosca's scanner - just don't expect it to scan like web pages, it will use the older scanner. Select Scan Application > Other... and it will start the older "Tosca Wizard". Click Scan, then point to your Terminal emulator. If you see the little box showing "Recognized Wizard >HOSTEngine
Good Luck!
I have written a program in VB.Net and run it for a few years on Vista and Win 7 without issue. It is a requirements management tool front end to an Access or SQLServer backend database.
A few months ago I installed it on Win 8. It is a 64-bit version of my program running on a 64-bit laptop. It installs fine and runs OK initially. However, after a few weeks it stops running. This has happened twice, the last time after 28 days.
When I try to run the program nothing happens - no splash screen, no error message, no entry in the Applications Log in Event Viewer - just nothing happens. The only solution has been to re-install the program and then it starts working again.
I have tried: turning off all malware, firewall and anti-virus programs; running the program as Administrator; running in various compatibility modes. Nothing happens.
I also tried removing the license file from the program directory. When I did that I did get an error message in the Application Log in Event Viewer, so the program is trying to start. But when I returned the license file it still won't start and there is no error message in the log file.
Program was written in VS 2008 under .Net framework 3.5. I don't think this is an issue, since it runs fine for about a month after install. Also, it is not the license file. The license is perpetual, and anyway if it fails the license there is a splash screen that comes up, and that is not happening.
Can anyone suggest where I might look in Win 8 to try and work out what is going on when I try to start the program?
UPDATE: Through using the Reliability Monitor I have just noticed that at 2:30pm on the afternoon of the problem Windows Installer reconfigured my application. I had the app open all afternoon. but when I shut it at around 4:40pm, then tried to open it again, the problem above emerged.
Description
Windows Installer reconfigured the product. Product Name: Capability Architect. Product Version: 1.0.0. Product Language: 1033. Manufacturer: SDG. Reconfiguration success or error status: 0.
The reason for the reconfiguration was:
Detection of product '{221672D4-9B64-4550-8B8A-A13C4BE20780}', feature 'DefaultFeature', component '{4F120286-6AE1-5DFE-65E4-A4495CA3F296}' failed. The resource 'C:\Users\Public\Desktop\SDG\Capbility Architect Template v2.0.accdb' does not exist.
Now, that file is installed by default with the product. However, I had deleted it earlier that day because I never use it and that seems to have triggered the reconfiguration. Is that normal behaviour?? And why should a reconfiguration stop the program from running? And is it possible to see exactly what the reconfiguration actually did?
EXTRA UPDATE: If this is the problem then I can't replicate it :( I tried deleting the folder again but it has not affected program start up at all.
Thanks

Say I have a desktop program that uses the Win32 API, but is compiled for the ARM architecture. How do I get it to run on Windows RT (the restricted version of Windows 8 for ARM tablets)? Windows RT refuses to run such apps without a Microsoft signature.
I know there is no official way to do it, but say it is for an in-house deployment, or just for testing purposes. What are my options?
(See this answer for the availability of Win32 API on Windows RT (not neccessarily for Metro apps, but present on the system), and this answer for how to compile Win32 programs for ARM using VS2012.)
Now you can run any app/exe on Windows RT : http://surfsec.wordpress.com/2013/01/06/circumventing-windows-rts-code-integrity-mechanism/
please see this thread,and you can run you exe without a Microsoft signature by CreateProcessA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1944675
And now there is actually a "jailbreak"-like script:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092158
Usage:
Boot your RT device and log in, allow it to sit on the desktop for about a minute.
Run runExploit.bat, wait for it to do it's thing (shouldn't be more than 20 seconds or so)
Press Volume Down
Wait for runExploit.bat to finish, answer any prompts it gives. They should all be fairly self-explanatory.
It might crash while running the script, and it has to be done after every reboot. Also, I haven't tried it myself. In the post there is a link to a list of recompiled software that might be useful.
