Comment 8 for bug 1672552

Heh. Consider it ignored. :P

On a side note, the release does not have debugging info for performance reasons, but you can download the QT tools and build a debug version and run it through their debugger. You'll have to launch QT Creator as admin to do this, but it is how I debug. Also, there is a similar sighting on SF (https://sourceforge.net/p/win32diskimager/tickets/47/) that may be related. I haven't had time to trace through the code on this one yet. Your problem does sound similar though. Likely an issue during the drive detection routine on initial startup. Windows has multiple IO APIs depending on the medium being addressed, it could be that the IOCTL currently used is incompatible with these new corner cases (I haven't used assign or a ramdisk in at least a decade).
