Offline USB deployment fails. Deploying Win 10 LTSC 2021 (Enterprise) using MDT 6.3.8456.100 and ADK/ PE v 10.1.22621.1

Question

I am trying to do a Windows 10 LTSC (2021) build using MDT for an offline, USB install. I am testing using my laptop that has MDT installed ver. 6.3.8456.100

Windows ADK ver. 10.1.22621.1

Windows ADK PE ver. 10.1.22621.1

I have already applied the HTA applications report Script error after upgrading to ADK for Windows 11, version 22H2 and the KB4564442.

I keep getting an error after the task sequence installs the OS and after running DISM.exe. I have extracted the logs, which seem to assign the OS drive as drive E: and not C: but not sure how to fix. I have also attached logs. smsts.logBDD.logLiteTouch.logsmsts #2.log

Hi, @Mohammed, Shazad

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Q&A forum.

Please try to fix it by changing the Task Sequence Set Variable for Drive Letter to TRUE and set BDE Drive to Do not assign a drive letter to this partition.

For the details:
