Dear Microsoft, Please ensure that Windows 10 1903 Deployment features are thouroughly tested, including ADK - missing MetaDeployProvider.dll

Seriously...

This is a newly installed Windows Preinstallation Environment Windows 10 Assessment and Deployment Toolkit 18362.1

Now I am quoting the following from https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/4498523/windows-10-update-kb4498523

Servicing stack update for Windows 10, Version 1903: May 29, 2019

 

  • Addresses an issue in which updates may fail to install after the /resetbase command in DISM is run.

PS E:\WinROG> DISM /Image:mount\OS /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup 
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.18362.1

Image Version: 10.0.18362.145

Error: 0x800f0806

The operation could not be completed due to pending operations.

The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log
PS E:\WinROG> DISM /Unmount-Image /MountDir:mount\OS /DISCARD
Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 10.0.18362.1

Unmounting image
[==========================100.0%==========================]
The operation completed successfully.

2019-06-01 02:43:18, Warning DISM DISM Provider Store: PID=1632 TID=14016 Failed to load the provider: D:\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Deployment Tools\AMD64\DISM\MetaDeployProvider.dll. - CDISMProviderStore::Internal_GetProvider(hr:0x8007007e)

If you look carefully, the above screenshot shows that this MetaDeployProvider.dll DOES NOT EXIST for the ADK Release 18362.1.

While this issue doesn't break the OS as much as the previous bug I posted about the ADK - https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-update/windows-1903-dear-microsoft-please-remember-to/e9e9e28a-c3f6-4e24-a900-f48a85b20431?tm=1558465537818

It shows that there is still insufficient testing regarding a Toolkit that is meant to ASSESS and DEPLOY Windows.

Sorry for the inconvenience of having to suggest the re-route, but Technet has a lot of experts there that know the ins and outs of enterprise issues; especially domain configurations for clients, Windows 10 deployment and migration. So, they will be better able to diagnose and determine whats causing the block.

MSFT have too many forums and not enough efficiency ...

Techcommunity, msdn, technet, social.visualstudio...

The feedback system is near useless too

Windows 10 ADK really needs its own Sub-forum, and release information page.

I'm now tracking File History changes for the Servicing Stack.
