@george1421 This is also true for Windows 8 and 8.1.

While this is a bit off point, we are seeing with windows 10 that a shutdown is not really a shutdown. Its a bit more like enhanced sleep state. If you want to capture a windows 10 image we have better luck with a reboot into the fog capture from audit mode or using sysprep with the power off command line option to properly close the disk and not leave that dirty bit turned on.

@Tom-Elliott From my experience, on current fog trunk, you don’t even get to partclone when fast startup is turned on.
Also, that command must be ran from an elevated command prompt.
-
At sysprep did you shutdown or reboot? I suspect shutdown. Please reedit the image and disable hibernate with:
powercfg -h offin cmd line.Also, if possible turn off fast boot in the bios.
