Invalid Windows 7/8/10 installation file, the program cannot recognize it ...

Hi there,

In the middle of  "Windows to Go Creator" operations got information window:  "Invalid Windows 7/8/10 installation file, the program cannot recognize it. Please make sure that it is a Windows 7/8/10 installation file and select a correct WIM, ESD or ISO file."

I used Windows.iso file for the procedure. The file I got from Microsoft with MediaCreationTool1083.exe

Any suggestions what could cause the problem? The source file Windows.iso - is the original Microsoft file, so I don't think the problem is with it. 

Thanks a lot!

Alex

  • The ISO file created by MediaCreationTool is not supported.
  • Please advise if that is noted somewhere in the documentation. 

    So, what's is the possible solution? I have neither installation disk nor ESD file.  
  • Maybe you could try the second option "Create Windows To Go with current system".
