************** JIT Debugging **************
Try providing some useful info:

Are you using Windows 10 or 11?
Do you have MakeMKV v1.15.2 or above installed in the default location (on C: drive)?
What is drive model and firmware version?
How is drive connected to PC?
Does your PC user account have admin privileges?
Cheers :D

The SDFtool Flasher is a front-end for the MakeMKV sdftool... no MakeMKV, no back-end functionality.

Requirements:

Windows 10 64 bit version
MakeMKV v1.15.1 (or higher) installed
.NET Framework 4.7.2 **only for SDFtool Flasher v1.2.0**

And just to be safe... what month/year was the wh16ns40 manufactured?

MakeMKV can 'tell' you.

As MakeMKV doesn't do any encoding, I don't see why it would need to.

edit: well, maybe audio, but no... not terribly resource-intensive.

FW v1.05 is encrypted IIRC, so backup is not possible. Refer to Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022 for recommended FW.

On the off chance you need to revert... why not go to the source?

The embedded beta key expires right around now, so you'll need to wait until Mike posts a new one & apply it. Always found here... MakeMKV is free while in beta.

FAQ about BETA and PERMANENT keys.

'enc' correctly selected? image? Have no idea what the 'redbox' might say? NO disc in drive, right? Please copy/paste MakeMKV LibreDrive/Drive info here.

it worked without disk in drive but after it was done i got error code 0x8f052603

update now back in mkv and checking firmware was not written so0 is an error issue

yea its marked check

and im using the de. files idk if makes a difference but might want to later be able to use another program like dvd to compare if can. i mean due to the price id prefer make mkv but i wanna see if the other software has tools makemkv dont, cant use there trial for whatever reason can change /flash the drive without buying and not going to do that for now
