[German]There is a known issue with Windows SIM when a 64-bit Windows ADK is installed on the machine. Then administrators will get errors when creating auto anwer files for an installation. Microsoft has now released version 1903 for Windows SIM for error correction.

Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM) is a tool for creating unattended response files for Windows Setup. The tool is part of the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK) and is described on this Microsoft page. Many years ago, I tested the tool for the last time as part of a book project on Windows 7.
Problem: 64 bit Windows ADK
It seems, however, that on machines where Windows ADK is installed in a 64-bit version, errors occur when using Windows SIM. Then you simply can't create response files for a Windows installation anymore. Now Microsoft offers a solution.
If you have encountered an error using Windows SIM on a device running the Windows ADK on a 64-bit version of Windows, download the 1903 update (and follow the included installation instructions). https://t.co/jFYFxPJds7 pic.twitter.com/SZKyPsxJfm
