Remember - if its critical to your workflow, the workaround is to exit google drive. You can always restart it later on. There may also be other drive-stream apps that cause the same problem, onedrive can be configured that way and probably others like synology etc.

The problem has not yet been fixed even after the bugs and solutions were pointed out here several years ago. The bad thing is that this app is recommended by several Linux distros and some only work if you record using it. So I would like to reinforce my request to correct the bugs that require us to close certain apps for them to work.

I"m wondering if the permissions are based on the raw data properties on the original files. When they get copied over, do they retain those access/read/write permissions both ways? Are the files themselves retaining the permissions from the original source drive?

It is able to handle ISO files just fine. the issue is that the open file by default asks for only bin and img format. If you click on format and change it from bin, img to *.* you are then able to open it. it just needs an adjustment to allowed images format

Have a nearly same problem. I can read a sd-card and write a imageto a local pc-folder. If i try to write the image back to a other SD-card i have "write-errors - permission denied" so as if the sd-card is write-protectet. But it is a brand new card. any hints?

I've seen the same problem. For me it looks as if another program I installed is interfering. Linux File Systems for Windows may be blocking access to Win32DiskImage Viewer. I killed the task and it allowed disk viewer to open finally. Perhaps another program is doing the same for others.

I have the same issue, but with Windows 10 Pro, 20H2, OS Build 19042.1348. On Windows 10 Home, 21H1, OS Build 19043.1320, I get a different error. ( An error occurred with querying properties. This usually means something is currently accessing the device; please close all applications and try again. Error 122: The data area passed to a system call is too small.)

For Windows 10 Home, I am using version 0.9.5. Even with the error I was able to create a RaspberryPI image that did boot.

I can only support this issue. Win 10 Pro x64 - 21H1 (Build 19043.1384). The application starts up, requests admin privileges and then closes without any further notification so it seems to "not start" at all. Eventlog shows: Source - Application Error, EventID: 1000, faulty application: Win32DiskImager.exe, Version: 1.0.0.0, faulty module: : ntdll.dll, Version: 10.0.19041.1288 Exception : 0xc00000fd offset: 0x00045dd4 ID of the faulty Prozess: 0x2ef8

Hit this one too. Nowdays "Google File Stream drive" was rebranded to official "Google Drive" app and was pushed to insane amount of Google Drive service end-users. Have to close Google Drive app for now as a workaround. Looking forward for any source code patch appearing so it'd be possible to rebuild win32diskimager instead of relying on some binaries from third parties which is never a good idea for nowdays internet.

I went through the source code and can provide a bit more context, as it seems there are 2 issues here: First, an error is thrown on some mounted virtual disks (I can reproduce with VeraCrypt, but not with a VHD created via Disk Management app). The error message is "Incorrect Function", which can be retrieved in a debugger by breaking at address Win32DiskImager.00404A4E; Second, this error is thrown inside method GetDisksProperty(), while the MainWindow instance is being created. The error logic...

Yes, - it doesn't like fake drive letters. Fortunately it works when the file stream is disabled (or just right click and exit).

I saw that version 0.9.5 is producing the following error when starting (https://ibb.co/S7jQ5wD) but after confirming Win32 Disk Imager starts and works properly! I think this could help finding the bug or at least avoid crashing of the program in version 1.0.
-
I have a similar issue: my 1TB SSD has a data partition which is (like the system partition) encrypted with VeraCrypt. When the data partition is NOT mounted everything works fine, but when the data partition is mounted Wn32 Disk Imager crashes while starting. On my old Laptop I have a second hardware SSD which is mounted via VeraCrypt and the problem does not occur... Is this issue related? Hope there will be a solution in the future...

Oliver Genthe posted a comment on ticket #83
I just wanted to post here, having had a similar issue. It seems that my Google Drive Stream software creates a drive on my Windows 10 PC. I assume any other similar software may do similar. While the drive is mounted (I tried varieus drive letters with no difference), the DiskImager software will not load and has a similar error report to the above. Disabling the File Stream software is the only way to get the DiskImager software to work. It's a minor inconvenience, but an easy work-around.
-
This may also be of interest. If I close my Drive File Stream software after opening the DiskImager software (probably a minute after realising that the software has not loaded up correctly), I get the attached error message.

Some more info as I continued working on this....I accidently found that after I received the error message, if I continue to click the READ button another (or a few more) times, it works! But maybe not. After it creates the image file, I then click VERIFY...get the error again, but with enough reties it starts reading/verifying. But the verification always fails. I then did try a USB reader and the same thing happened with it. I will eventually try the USB reader on another PC and see the problem...

Tuyen posted a comment on ticket #33
In your post, you said: Your three options are: 1. Disable UAC (not recommended. Very bad for security) 2. Copy the file to a local disk first 3. Create an elevated command prompt and mount the network share again as 'Administrator' Doesn't do anything. I never run with UAC. It's the first thing I disable when I install Windows. As should every power user. UAC is for people who really should be using a Mac, but simply don't know it yet. That's idiotic, and does absolutely nothing to address the problem....

JD posted a comment on ticket #33
UAC is one part of the problem. If you read the link I sent - You need to enable the 'EnableLinkedConnections' through Local GPO to allow a shared drive mapped by a user when elevated. This ticket should be closed. It's not a W32DiskImager problem. On Apr 25, 2020, at 20:30, Tuyen tuyen99@users.sourceforge.net wrote: I don't really understand the purpose of your post.

Jeff Ward posted a comment on ticket #33
Are you referring to my initial post that said "The problem may be due to UAC" or the later post by JD that said "This is Windows UAC acting properly"? I was quoting JD on 2017-04-28 with his explanation on 2017-04-22. I'm not sure what to make of other's statements myself. I'm not the one that claimed UAC is the problem.

I don't really understand the purpose of your post. As I said, I've completely turned off UAC...so that has no bearing on it.

That seems good to know but counter to what was suspected by others. I'm still using Windows 10 and it's a shame that Win32 Disk Imager doesn't work with it because there have been times since I reported the problem in 2016 that I could have used it. I didn't turn off UAC when I used it on either Win 7 or Win 10. See my reply 2017-04-28.

Andreas Rieke posted a comment on ticket #50
I encountered the same problems (verify error after writing, verify error after reading). Maybe the solution is very easy: If the SD-Card contains partitions which are accessible from Windows (FAT, FAT32, NTFS), Windows will create or change contents in the folder "System Volume Information" after writing or reading (because volume is locked for writing and reading and unlocked after this), so verification fails because content on SD-Card meanwhile was changed by Windows before you start the Verify....

Sorry, didn't see this merge request earlier. I have had to greatly reduce the attention I pay to this app as I am working 60+ hours a week for a startup (even during lockdown - remote access). Add to that the constant changes to Windows (a Windows 10 update a couple of years ago completely invalidated a different bug fix, which would require a lot of extra code to detect and work through depending on Windows updates installed), and I just haven't had time to properly fix some of these issues.
