"Incorrect function" error on a PC   13 November 2020, 17:53

This happens to me as well, but only when trying to save the image, and I am not using a Mac with a BootCamp, mine is a straight PC running straight Windows.

I have created a RAM disk of 24576 MB (around 24GB which is what is needed), have tried hard drive emulation, etc. Every time I try to save the disk to the image, I get this error:

Saving image failed
Win32 error code = 1 incorrect function.

Have you tried a different file system (for both the RAM disk and the image file's storage drive)?

It sounds like there is a third-party driver in your system that doesn't like something about the RAM Disk.

Sometimes you can find a solution faster if you try the forum search, have a look at the knowledge base, or check the software user manual to see if your question has already been answered.
