Failed to Import Boot Image (New Installation)

[ImaNewb]

Setup:

OS: Windows Server 2016

SQL 2016

SCCM Current Branch (1702)

Memory: 64GB

Disk: 700GB HDD

Type: Virtual Machine on a Hyper-V Failover Cluster

--------------------------------

I installed ADK v10 then installed SCCM and during the installation process it fails to import the default boot images. Now I have tried to import the boot images but that fails as well, see attachment. There is no AV on this machine as it is a new installation with basic configuration and I have searched this issue but I cannot get an answer for current branch.

 

Could anyone have suggestions to help me out here? I even made sure my account had full permissions on the parent folder down to the file level and I still get the same error. Thank you!

Hi,

Which version of the ADK did you install and to which folder? it is recommended to leave it at the default C:\ location. There have been issues with TEMP directories as well, what is the TEMP Variable configured for your site?

Jorgen,

ADK Version 10 and I installed it to D:\ since I only want C:\ for the Windows System files.

I was able to figure this out after much research, apparently "Secure Boot" was blocking the imports of the boot images into SCCM. Once I disabled it, I was able to import boot images without issues.

 

Thanks!

I had the same problem but I was unwilling to accept the concept of turning off secure boot.

Eventually I found this TechNet blog post: https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/configurationmgr/2017/04/14/known-issue-with-the-windows-adk-for-windows-10-version-1703/

The blog post has been updated with a download that has the problem files re-released with the proper digital signature. After following the directions in the included read.me file I was able to manually create the default boot images.
