      Alrighty, so my work-arounds for this issue were to use a virtual drive of 28GB to make the original image, alternatively you can delete the 4th partition to make imaging completely compatible, but you lose the ability to do an OS reset in Windows.

      If you move the partition to where it used to be in v1909, Windows can’t find it and that also loses the ability to reset, so if you have to move it, just delete it i guess…

      another alternative if using clonezilla you can image and use gparted to first move the 4th partition to the end of the drive, then resize the 3rd partition, this seems to work fine without losing the option to reset, tested on 2 different machines, a Clevo Laptop and an HP All in One.

      Otherwise typically just make sure the drive you are imaging to with FOG is generally larger than the source disk you imaged from and everything should be fine… generally speaking…

      @Lee-Rowlett That is a sound route, I’ll keep it in mind while I dig into it.

      Yeah, I was hoping it was some other reason than permissions, but somehow over the last week permissions changed on the server, so it is probably how I’ve got it setup.

      The main system is installed on a 512 GB M.2 Nvme, and the images are stored on a 2TB HDD that I have mounted to the images folder. The permissions didn’t have a date last changed, so I’m guessing something happened with that mount at some point, maybe a power outage or brownout and maybe it reset the mount long enough to fubar the permissions?

      Pure conjecture… but it was a permissions issue…
