当您尝试使用 C:$ Windows.~BT中的 setup.exe 安装或升级 Windows 10 时，您可能会看到一条错误消息：

Windows was unable to locate required installation file [boot.wim]. Verify that the installation is valid and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070002.

这篇文章将向您展示如何解决该问题。

.wim文件是Windows 映像文件^{(Windows Image File)}的缩写。这些文件用于在Windows计算机上存储所有启动映像。启动映像的示例包括Windows 安装程序^{(Windows Setup)}映像、操作系统映像等。有用户报告缺少 boot.wim 文件的事件。当用户尝试将他/她的Windows设置从一个操作系统升级到另一个操作系统时，通常会出现此错误。在出现此错误的情况下，升级可能会变得令人讨厌，因此，今天我们将讨论一些用户可以实施的解决方法，以防Windows无法找到 boot.wim 文件。

Windows无法找到所需的安装文件 [boot.wim]

您应该做的第一件事是检查您的计算机是否在安装Windows时安装并运行了防病毒^(Antivirus)应用程序。此防病毒^(Antivirus)文件的存在可能会阻碍该过程并导致相关错误。

如果您的 PC 上确实运行了防病毒软件^(Antivirus)，建议您在开始安装过程之前将其禁用。您应该注意，这是一项临时措施，他们应该在安装过程结束后立即重新启用病毒防护^{(Virus Protection)}，以确保他们的计算机将来不会受到任何恶意软件的影响。^(Malware)

完成后，我们还建议您更改此注册表设置

就像其他任何错误或错误一样，注册表编辑器^{(Registry Editor)}有答案。注册表编辑器中的^{(Registry Editor)}某些^(Certain)调整和修改应该让您重回正轨。

您应该知道，在注册表编辑器^{(Registry Editor)}中所做的任何更改如果没有正确执行，都会对其计算机造成不可挽回的损害。这就是为什么用户在对其进行任何更改之前应谨慎行事并备份现有注册表的原因。^{(back up their existing Registry)}

现在打开注册表编辑器并导航到以下键：

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\OSUpgrade

OSUpgrade密钥应该存在，但如果缺少，则需要^(OSUpgrade)创建它。

现在选择OSUpgrade并右键单击窗口右侧的空白部分，然后从“新建”选项中创建一个新的D-WORD（32 位）值。

将其命名为AllowOSUpgrade并将其值设置为1。

重新启动计算机并尝试查看它是否有效。

我们希望上述解决方案能够帮助您解决问题，并且您现在能够成功安装或升级您的Windows 操作系统^{(Windows OS)}。如果它对您没有帮助，您可以尝试使用 Media Creation Tool^{(use Media Creation Tool)}并创建可启动媒体。这将允许您将Windows 10下载并安装到您的闪存驱动器上，然后您可以使用它来安装在您的计算机上。

Windows was unable to locate required install file boot.wim

When you try to install or upgrade Windows 10 using setυp.exe from C:\$Windows.~BT, yoυ maу see an error mеssage:

Windows was unable to locate required installation file [boot.wim]. Verify that the installation is valid and restart the installation. Error code: 0x80070002.

This post will show you how to resolve the issue.

A .wim file is short for a Windows Image File. These files are used to store all the boot images on a Windows computer. Examples of boot images include Windows Setup images, Operating System images, etc. There have been incidents of users reporting the absence of a boot.wim file. This error generally shows up when the user is trying to upgrade his/her Windows setup from one OS to another. In the presence of this error, upgrading can become irksome, and thus, today we will discuss some of the workarounds that users can implement in case Windows is unable to locate the boot.wim file.

Windows is unable to locate the required install file [boot.wim]

The first thing you should do is check if your computer has an Antivirus application installed and running at the time of Windows installation. It is possible for the presence of this Antivirus file to be hindering the procedure and resulting in the error in question.

If you do have an Antivirus running on your PC, you are advised to disable it before beginning the installation process. You should note that this is a temporary measure and that they should enable their Virus Protection back on as soon as the installation process is over to ensure that their computer isn’t affected by any Malware in the future.

Having done that, we also recommend that you change this Registry setting

Much like for any other bug or error out there, it is the Registry Editor that has the answer. Certain tweaks and modifications in the Registry Editor should get you back on track.

You should know that any changes made in the Registry Editor are capable of rendering irrevocable damage to their computer, if not executed properly. This is why users should act cautiously and back up their existing Registry before making any changes to it.

Now open Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\OSUpgrade

The OSUpgrade key should exist but if is missing, you need to create it.

Now select OSUpgrade and right-click on the blank portion on the right side of the window and from the ‘New’ option, create a new D-WORD (32-bit) value.

Name it as AllowOSUpgrade and set its value as 1.

Restart your computer and try and see if it works.

We hope that the above-mentioned solution was able to help you solve your problem and that you are now able to successfully install or upgrade your Windows OS. If it did not help you, you could try to use Media Creation Tool and create bootable media. This would allow you to download and install Windows 10 onto your flash drive that you can then use to install on your computer.
