Notes

Warning

The Enhanced Write Filter with HORM package depends on the Enhanced Writer Filter Boot Environment which conflicts with the Windows Boot Environment. You may run into this conflict under certain circumstances. For example, if you create a basic runtime image with eCore and choose to resolve dependencies, you are prompted to select either Windows Boot Environment or Write Filter Boot Environment as a required dependency. You select Windows Boot Environment and deploy the image. Later, you create a configuration set with Enhanced Write Filter with HORM and you add the Enhanced Write Filter Boot Environment because it is a required dependency. When you attempt to perform an online update of your image using Deployment Image Servicing and Management Command-Line Options and your configuration set, the installation will fail because of the conflict between the Enhanced Writer Filter Boot Environment and the Windows Boot Environment.
