If you're trying to create a bootable USB or DVD from an ISO, consider using the Media Creation Tool provided by Microsoft:
sfc /scannow
This will scan and replace any corrupted system files.
net stop imapi
net start imapi
Use oscdimg (Windows ADK) to rebuild:
oscdimg -m -o -u2 -udfver102 -bootdata:2#p0,e,b"etfsboot.com"#pEF,e,b"efisys.bin" "source_folder" "fixed_unattended.iso"
dism /mount-wim /wimfile:<path_to_iso_file> /index:1 /mountdir:<mount_directory>
Replace <path_to_iso_file> with the actual path to your ISO file and <mount_directory> with a directory where you want to mount the ISO file.
Step 1: Download WinCDEmu from its official GitHub or SourceForge page. Install it (or use the portable version). windows 11 cannot connect unattendediso to cd dvd 2 better
Step 2: After installation, open WinCDEmu Manager from the system tray. Go to Settings. Increase Number of virtual drives to 2.
Step 3: Assign Drive 1 as E: and Drive 2 as D: (rename it “CD/DVD 2” in File Explorer via right-click > Properties). If you're trying to create a bootable USB
Step 4: Right-click your Unattended.iso file > Select Select drive letter > Choose D:\ (CD/DVD 2).
Step 5: Click Mount. The ISO will now appear exactly as “CD/DVD 2” with zero errors, zero registry hacks, and zero conflicts with Hyper-V. Run the following command:
If you must use two separate ISOs (one for Install, one for Unattended), the order of operations is critical.
