I have successfully extracted the .so file through macos, but cannot seem to obtain the .dll file from FTK. When running the powershell command to extract PhotoDNAx64.dll, I am presented with the following:

Attached          : False
BlockSize         : 0
DevicePath        :
FileSize          : 3654756352
ImagePath         : ...\pyPhotoDNA\AD_FTK_6.3.0.iso
LogicalSectorSize : 2048
Number            :
Size              : 3654756352
StorageType       : 1
PSComputerName    :

The system cannot find the file specified.

and no .dll file is extracted. Thanks for the help!

Hi, not sure what the problem could be, but it's likely not on the side of the code. Some machines have bitsadmin blocked for security reasons because it's often used by malware. You can always perform the steps from the batch file manually. The download step would be a good candidate, as any other method of downloading will be way faster and reliable than bitsadmin.

Thanks for the quick reply, I downloaded the .iso file using firefox as well and I am greeted with the same error when running this line of the install.bat file. I stepped through by hand and was able to use Mount-DiskImage successfully by writing out the full path then extracted the .dll using file explorer.
Thanks again for the help, cheers
