WinRE not found

[Fracso]

Process: to create an IFW 2.95 WinRE ISO file in a UEFI Windows 8.1 Update computer.

Error: TBWinPE/RE Builder reports “Unable to find WinRE at default locations”, “Backup copy of winre.wim not found”.

What is the WinRE default location? As I have understood this, the WinRE is in the recovery partition, which exists in this computer.

Actually, this computer has 2 “recovery partitions”: the original, for Windows 8, which came pre-installed, and the new for Windows 8.1, which was created (after the OS partition) when Windows was updated to 8.1 from the Windows store.

I checked and in both partitions there are “winre.wim” files. In the past, I have created WinRE boot media using TB and other programs, and this have never been an issue.

The log might be helpful (see other thread).

Is WinRE activated and working on the system? It's normal for the system to have the two partitions, but it should find the 8.1 partition if it's enabled. What is reported if you run "reagentc /info" from an administrator Command Prompt?

Does the TBWinRE.cmd script also report that it can't find WinRE?

[Fracso]

This is what reagentc /info reports:

[TeraByte Support(PP)]

Can you attached the output from the following command (run from an administrator Command Prompt):
bcdedit /enum all

You can copy the output from the Command Prompt window or redirect the output to a file:
bcdedit /enum all > c:\bcdoutput.txt

[Fracso]

I don´t know how to attach bcdoutput.txt. Should I copy its contents and paste it?

I ran TBWinRE.cmd. It found WinRE and worked well, no problem. This is the procedure I had used previously.

Then I ran the Builder again. It produced the same error.

You can paste the BCD output. Also the Builder log output.

Solved in 2.96 and Builder v. 1.2. The Builder finds the WinRE now.
