HP USB KEY UTILITY cannot process SPP-2018-03

[LinuxSysAdmin]

Hi,

I am trying to write P05006_001_spp-2018.03.0-SPP2018030.2018_0226.84 to a USB Stick.

I am using HP USB Key Utility 2.1 on Windows 10.

I get an error "hpusbkey.exe has stopped working" (see screenshot below)

I tried with P03093_001_spp-Gen8.1-SPPGen81.4 and with 871795_001_spp-2017.04.0-SPP2017040.2017_0420.14 and they both worked perfectly from the same PC using the same copy of HP USB Key Utility.

I checked the MD5SUM of the 2018 ISO and it was fine.

Has anyone managed to successfully use HP USB Key Utility 2.1 to create a bootable USB Stick with the laetst SPP? (P05006_001_spp-2018.03.0-SPP2018030.2018_0226.84)

Is there anything else I could try?

I haven't had a chance to open the latest ISO image to see if there is a new version of the utility. I would start by checking that

i think it is still version 3.0 of the utility.

your version is just too old. use the tool inside the ISO.

Thanks Jimmy - I used the usbkey utility from the ISO and it worked fine.
