Due to circumstances beyond my control, I haven't been able to respond to or to apply Froggie's suggestions, but I managed to find time to try out his suggestions a few minutes ago, and hey presto: they work!
So, many, many thanks to Froggie (a very intriguing alias, I have to admit); without his expertise I would still be tearing my hair out. ....
incidentally, in finally findinga solution to this problem, I almost immediately stumbled upon another, or rather, upon a new pitfall. Once I had applied Froggie's tips, I immediately created a new/fresh Bootable WinPE ISO file with HBS, and it worked a treat. But a note of caution: apparently the building process each time creates a new WinPE.WIM file in the folder C:\Program Files\Hasleo Backup Suite\bin/WADK\Windows Preinstallation Environment\amd64. And so my old problem would return.
In other words, should I again wish to create a new/fresh Bootable WinPE ISO file, it would be necessary to delete this new WinPE.WIM file first, or else I'would be stuck again!
Incidentally, talking about pitfalls or problems: I actually ran into a new one (surprise surprise). So far, I have always created HBS WinPE ISO files by using an OPE file, rather than downloading the WinPE Components from the Microsoft site. So I decided to give this last method a try (always useful to having a few more strings to one's bow ...) . Well, the process of creating WinPE ISO file seemed to work fine, until at the very last moment, when the process was suddenly aborted with the rather cryptic error message:
"Failed to run system API (0x166001500000003)". Does anyone have a clue as to the provenance of this message?
Once more, many, many thanks to Froggie!
