TBWinRE fails

Windows 7 x64.
WinRE fails with the message "An unknown winre.wim architecture is found."
WinRE is working normally from F8, and other programs create WinPEs from it.
I´d like to know what the cause may be, and if the problem can be corrected.

What language version of Windows is it?
It may not be getting the architecture type correctly. What is the actual error message? It should have included what it found as part of the message. For example: Unknown WinRE.WIM architecture (???)

I have attached an image of what appears in the script.
Edit: The script may be looking for Winre.wim in the wrong place. RECOVERY (F:) is the Dell recovery partition, it contains the factory image and related files.
The "real" Winre.wim is in "C:\Windows\System32\Recovery\Winre.wim".

Can you start an Administrator Command Prompt and let me know what the output is for the following command?
dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:"F:\Recovery\WindowsRE\winre.wim" /index:1
If you're just trying to create the TBWinRE boot media, you can create a folder named "WinRE_Backup" in the TBWinRE folder and copy the correct WinRE.WIM file into it. The script will use it for the build instead of searching for it.

I ran the command. I don´t post an image of the result because it´s not in English. But almost all lines reported "undefined" (translated). The exceptions were:
Size: 2.592.011.251 bytes
Directories: 2413
Files: 10590.
I also tried the other method, created the WinRE_Backup folder and copied into it the Winre.wim from "C:\Windows\System32\Recovery\Winre.wim".
The script didn´t report any errors, it ran normally and created the ISO file. This solved the problem.
Thanks for your help.
