Disk2VHD not starting

Question

Hello forum,

I downloaded disk2vhd from the official site.

• When I start disk2vhd64.exe as admin, I get the dialog to allow making changes to the hard drive, but afterwards nothing happens.
• Starting disk2vhd.exe results in "Error launching 64-bit version: The system cannot find the file specified."
• When I execute disk2vhd64.exe from an admin command prompt, nothing happens
• When I execute "disk2vhd64.exe C: E:\Backup\test.vhd" from an admin command prompt, I get a dialog with the usage information (which according to the dialog is correct)
• When I execute "disk2vhd64.exe -h C: E:\Backup\test.vhd" from an admin command prompt, nothing happens

Can anybody give me a hint what I can do to use disk2vhd?

Thanks in advance!
Johannes

Update: I'm working on Windows 10 Pro running on an i7-7700HQ with an M.2 SSD and a SATA HDD.

Answer 1

Hello,

I had same issue, and in my case problem have been solved by unpluging 3TB drive on which I wanted to create image. Then program started normally, after it I plugged drive again and set save location in it. Maybe issue was caused by exFAT format of unpluged drive, all other drives are in NTFS in my case.

I wish you find it helpfull :)
