macOS High Sierra Public Beta 2 - Save MBR Failed

Hello :slight_smile:

I dared to jump right on the High Sierra Public Beta and am using Winclone 6 Beta 6.0.5.b1(Build 12781) and now I’m getting the following error trying to backup the Windows 10 Creators Update:

“Save MBR Failed. See System Log for more information.”

Maybe someone has an idea what the root cause of this could be?

Thanks!
Martin

The system log shows the following data:

In the latest build (seed 3), the MBR is not even available to be read without disabling SIP. I see this in your log:

Sandbox: winclone_helper_(1541) System Policy: deny file-read-data /dev/disk0

Try disabling SIP and see if it works.
