Thanks for the effort I'd love to see an answer for this. 4 Open the Live USB Maker program, select the second flash drive, locate the antiX ISO that was downloaded in Windows to prepare the second flash bootable with antiX. 3 After antiX starts, connect the second USB stick to be prepared with Live USB Maker. But seeing as how you have an intimate knowledge of the code, I figure it is worth documenting for you. 2 Boot the computer with the first bootable flash drive. If you're in the app, you should be good to go now if it worked If you're on the website, click the WiFi symbol in the top right to take you to xFi and see if it lets you in now. But, again I could not say if it is purely a Windows thing (perhaps a "Security Enhancement") or some interaction that has started causing this. I am a developer of 25 years so I understand that 90% of user complaints are user error, however I do feel there may be some small issue at work here that is causing these errors. As another note I have written to multiple Transcend JetFlash successfully before though I can not say for certain it was one of these two.
#Balenaetcher you are not authorized update
So it would seem either a Windows update, or an Etcher update or both together might have caused an issue. I can say I had earlier versions that worked flawlessly and I have several micro-controllers that are running with cards written from Etcher from this computer. I tried this procedure with both a Micro SD and two USB thumb drive, with the same results. But I could slap it in my Mac and reformat just fine, rinse and repeat.Īlmost feels like it is beginning to write just enough to screw the MBR, then failing (due to some reason) and leaving a crippled disk as a result. Be aware that installing to and later running from USB is not a reliable option for a production system - unless you use a 'real' SSD or HDD in a USB enclosure, which might be a good compromise.
#Balenaetcher you are not authorized install
Use two USB drives, one to boot the installer, one to install to. I only say that because one of the side effects for me after getting this error on a drive that was previously exFAT formatted was that after attempting an attempted write with that error, the previously perfectly usable drive in Windows was rendered unreadable. The image is an installer, you cannot just run it.

This may be related to another issue that I when searching for an answer.Įtcher is corrupting SD and USB drives. USB Thumb Drive: Transcend 32GB JetFlash 710Īlso ran as Admin.
