Product: ELITEBOOK x360 1030 G7
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

What ridiculousness....  In trying to search and respond to an issue with the BCU (which is like an old dinosaur that just won't die and be replaced by a  BB8 unit):

Have been very successful in running the BCU on most of the client's Elitebooks until today.  Seems a G7 with latest BIOS does not like the syntax for the command to 'set' the repset file.  So, it errors out with this:

<ERROR msg="Unable to open or read configuration file" />
<ERROR msg="BCU return value" real="11" translated="11" />

 

Luckily, I found the post previous from last December where the tech added "" around the path.. my path for the "SET" command works on other units (G2, G3) but not this one.  I don't recall seeing this in the documentation.  Perhaps I'm the dinosaur here?

 

Simply added the line like this and it works.. path was fine: 

 BiosConfigUtility64.exe /set:"HP EliteBook x360 1030 G7.repset" /verbose /cpwdfile:"xxxxx.bin"
