Windows support is broken, see #236

[brendoncdrew]

How about Linux support does that work?

[Otus9051]

Its a joke, can't even run.

Works fine on 10.0.22000, if you are running release preview or beta software it really isnt the fault of the program dev when the OS decides to not behave

If you are using an external hard drive instead of a flash drive, change this line in the MakeInstall.py file.

By default it will be like this:

def get_disks_of_type(self, disk_list, disk_type=(0,2)):

with this configuration makeinstall will only show removable and unknown devices

now just change that same line with a 3 looking like this

def get_disks_of_type(self, disk_list, disk_type=(0,2,3)):

save the file and run MakeInstall.bat again and be happy.

Same issue here - no drives are shown (Win 11, latest public build, latest public updates, Python 3.11.1, x64) and the addition of disk_type "3" as suggested by https://github.com/wilkergrcv makes no difference at all. Yes, already running elevated as admin...

Even after using option "D", all I see is as follows:

See issue 179 where I have carried out some investigations of the diskwin script and why it doesn't work correctly under Windows 11 and later releases of Windows 10
