Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration

Hi jamnmon66,

Sorry for the delay, missed your PM.
Have you solved it in the meantime, as this link shows it's most probably just the autoformat UEFI/BIOS mismatch.
Maybe try BIOS autoformat to see if it helps.

Can you please check one of those machines that were not autoformatted and installed with the same preset without autoformat (from our PMs), which partition table was it at the end? For example.

As now I just talked with another user reported the same, linking to your topic, and I cannot replicate the issue in VMWare set as EFI in advanced with either of your presets. It works fine, so if you and I are using VMWare in EFI, same preset, I'm guessing it must be the machine is not properly set to EFI.
We can talk more about you sending me VMWare machine configuration file to try on, if the above didn't help.

all decribed here did not work. Switching from Updates-"Dism compatible" to "None" made it work again.

Preset please, demonstrating the issue. Thanks.
Also was it a original-non-edited ISO before that preset.
 
I used for all 4 of my tryouts a fresh extracted Win10x64pro image.
1 image was working but Synology Drive crashed, then the exact same problem of the thread starter appeared. Will send the preset as pm
 
Thanks for the presets, will try it and report back, probably tomorrow.
 
Hi,

used all 3 presets loaded at once (ctrl+ select, Load).
Replaced updates with latest ones (Updates - Add Latest Online Updates).
No issues with DISM Compatible cleanup enabled on top of that.

Can you please retry with the same method (1 preset for testing simplicity)?
Also new version just uploaded, so make sure to use with that one.

Btw this could easily be an issue of multi-stage editing.
It's always recommended to start fresh if integrating or cleaning updates in other sessions, because those expect full Windows.
Also it's cleaner to integrate only latest updates.

Let me know how it goes, save the exact single preset for my testing if it fails.
Thanks.
 
It's not a direct NTLite topic, but maybe you can help clarify something here:
There are several ways to get an original Windows ISO: I never know whether these ISOs are CSM- or UEFI-compatible.
An example: If I use an ISO that was created with MediaCreationTool21H2, I always get the message "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration" after the first Installation part, when the ISO was created with NTLite.
If I use the same NTLite configuration with an ISO from a different source, I don't have these problems even though the hardware is the same, and so are the UEFI / CSM settings.
Somehow I still lack knowledge.
