Unanswered ImageX and Orphaned files

    When our task sequence captures the current windows xp drive (imagex), sometimes it fails. The issue is always the same, trying to copy a file without an extension, for example "XXXXX." I believe this is an orphaned file.

    I am trying to find a way to either ignore orphaned files or find a way to clear them out. I have tried chkdsk with the /F option with no luck.

    I'd rather not try the /R option as this will increase the deployment time considerably.

    Here is the error generated:

    [ ERROR ] C:\Documents and Settings\WilsonMK\Local Settings\Temp\OICE_2352F289-E92D-400B-9877-86AA66C7C73C.0\7C24EE2A. (Error = 2)
    Error imaging drive [C:\]

    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Just clearing the Temp folder is not an option?

    RMDIR /Q /S "C:\Documents and Settings\WilsonMK\Local Settings\Temp"
    MKDIR "C:\Documents and Settings\WilsonMK\Local Settings\Temp"

    That is just an example. The orphaned file can show up anywhere. I am trying to find a way to automatically scan/fix/delete these files so imagex will not fail.

    Hi,

    Let's try mount the image with the steps (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824814.aspx) and then delete it. Thanks.

    This is a capture. You can't mount the image as it hasn't been created yet.
