    Hi,

    It seems the screenshot is from the below blog. Is there anything wrong when we follow the blog?

    Choose a Disk to Install Windows on using WPF and PowerShell

    mdt_prompt_to_choose_disk

    Hi,

    Thank you for the response. After checking the screenshots, I have the following comments:

    1, for the "create folder" task, the command is incorrect, the ending double quotation marks is missing, for example:

    powershell -command "& {new-item x:\choosedisk -itemtype directory -ea silentlycontinue}"

    2, for the "copy" task, we should check if the folder exist first, if yes, continue to copy

    3, if we use a package as shown in below picture, why need to copy the .ps1 to x drive and execute it form there? If we do NOT want to use a package, alternatively, we can put the script folder in a UNC path and map the drive prior to executing it, for example:

    net use m: \\server01\d /user:<username> <password>

    choose-disk

    Regards,

    Alex
