Windows 8.1 and SIM

[tomgrindle]

Hi All,

 

After some help if possible?

 

I have created a Windows 8.1 image but would now like to edit the unattend file before deployment. I am attempting to do this in SIM (System Image Manager). Upon selecting the image that I would like the catalog created for I get presented with this error message:

 

 

The log file says this:

 

14:57 : This application requires version 6.2.9200.16384 of the Windows ADK.

Install this version to correct the problem

14:57 :

14:57 : Windows SIM was unable to generate a catalog. For troubleshooting assistance, see the topic: 'Windows System Image Manager Technical Reference' in the Windows ADK User's Guide.

14:57 :

14:57 : System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): Unknown error (0xc1420127)

I am using version 6.2.9200.16384 of the Windows ADK.

 

Could anybody shed any light?

 

Cheers
