Backupper 6.3.0 Windows PE added drivers
Folks,
I'm trying to build a bootable version of Backupper 6.3.0 with Areca drivers.
When the the Windows PE image is being built, the drivers I selected indicate on the log screen as successfully added. The drivers are WHQL Certified Windows 10 64bit.
When I boot the DVD media, the RAID controller/disk drives are not seen.
If I use the powershell from Backupper's WinPE, I'm able to manually load the drivers using drvload.exe and then 'rescan' to see the disks.
My question is why the downloaded AOMEI Windows PE environment isn't properly adding the Areca drivers?

You can upload the iso to your cloud, and then share it with us.
During the "Create Bootable Media" screen, the Progress clearly shows that the two drivers in questions were "successfully installed".
As requested, I have reproduced the process taking screen shots at each step.
You can find the .ISO file as well as a directory of 5 screen shots here:

Please let me know if you need any further information to diagnose.
Thank you!

If drvload.exe is able to load the drivers, you may find it simpler to put the needed drivers in a directory on your boot media, perhaps along with a .bat file that runs drvload whatever.inf. If you use a USB key, you can easily add drivers for other hardware this way without having to rebuild your image. It also make for a quick way to test what files are actually needed.
The drivers I had trouble with needed some DLLs, not just a .sys file. I suspect the DLLs caused the problem, but I have no real evidence for this.
I placed the iso file I step-wise created in dropbox (see link above).
The file is named ampe.iso
The folder has screen captures of the step-by-step I performed to make the .iso file.
Please let me know if you need anything further.

And, could you try to use AOMEI PE Builder to create WinPE and add drivers?

@Admin Any word from your dev team? I have used your link to download the PEBuilder.exe file and created the ISO file with the Areca drivers. I will hopefully test with the system in question tonight. Please let me know what the dev team has found.
As you can see from this discussion thread, it appears that I'm not the only person having problems. See @jace and @Wssddc above!
Thanks in advance for your response!
