Issue/Introduction

You receive the above error message when you attempt to run Deploy Anywhere from the Windows PE command line and need to know how to proceed.

Resolution

This error message presents itself when your command line includes a drive letter that does not contain the Windows installation. For example, if the Windows OS installation resides on the "d" drive and your command line commands the retarget of the "c" drive, you will get this error message.

To resolve the error message, determine the drive letter where Windows is installed and adjust your command line to include the correct drive letter.
