Hi,

Please run the following command again with Process Monitor running and attach a new copy of the CBS log and the *.PML trace.

Code:

Post the SBS export again, but this time as *.HIV file instead of *.reg.

Do you have the same issue when you use the following MS-key:

Source: Key Management Services (KMS) client activation and product keys for Windows Server and Windows

Operating system edition	KMS Client Product Key

DISM /Online /Set-Edition:ServerStandard /ProductKey:N69G4-B89J2-4G8F4-WWYCC-J464C /AcceptEula
