No, it's not your fault.

BootSDI's FreeLetter function did not recognize your drive.
FreeLetter has an additional problem:
I generated a drive Z: with ImDisk, which (as fresh generated) is unformatted.
This Z: is not recognized, too.

I'm thinking about a new 'FreeLetter'. I hope that the author of this function will excuse me.

And can give choice FreeLetter most Vdk_wb ?
Mount.cmd ImagePath

cd "%~dp0" 

VDK_wb.EXE OPEN * "%~1" /RW>$$$.$$$

echo [Letter]>$$$.script

for /f "skip=19 tokens=1 delims= " %%i in ($$$.$$$) do echo Set,"FreeLetter","%%i">>$$$.script

del $$$.$$$

The script will be created $$$.script

[Letter]

Set,"FreeLetter","M:"

FreeLetter will be empty at an error.

Is the issue just that 'System,RefreshVars' needs to be added to the end of the [FreeLetter] section?

And assignment Set, "%Letter %", "M:" it is not fulfilled.

Why it not so?

Why it not so?

I think because the variable is not being returned to your script.

Does this work (I haven't tested this yet):

This works, including my vdk log:

It will work, even if vdk open has not been executed, and the disk has not been dismounted earlier or mounted two disks. Can is better

The 'skip=19' is with high propability wrong, because the current length of %VdkLog% is unknown.

And because vdk_WB is proprietary for WB, WB can control everything, so no worries about existing drives or driver running / stopped / not installed.

BTW I never use the backquote (I do not even know how to type it on my keyboard)

I stored the new version 050 on the nativeEx server.

The FreeLetter function is removed, and vdk_WB uses the first available drive letter.
(FreeLetter did not recognize empty CD drives and unformatted drives).

Thanks to Nikzzzz for his suggestion how to solve

I could not post this into the BootSDI topic. It seems to be locked.

New version 051 on the nativeEx server.

Hi Peter,

It seems we have a bad bug in version 51 (earlier version 48 didn't cause problem with same setup)

Hi Peter,

It seems we have a bad bug in version 51 (earlier version 48 didn't cause problem with same setup)

On my system it runs well with the same options.
BTW: The code responsible for 'Optimum + 24 mB' is 100 % unchanged!

So you again seem to have a strange constellation in your system, which we have to find as the root of the troubles.

What I wonder is:

Many times your build opens setupreg.hiv as it should be.
But in 'Other Tweaks' using the API as everytime, there is an error with mounting setupreg.hiv
