User State Migration Tool (USMT) Troubleshooting

Errors in USMT can be a bit tricky to figure out.

However, this quite old MS list is a comprehensive run through of possible errors.

A few examples:

• 0: USMT_SUCCESS
  • Error message: Successful run
    
• 1: USMT_DISPLAY_HELP
  • Error message: Command line help requested
    
• 2: USMT_STATUS_CANCELED
  • Error message:
    • Gather was aborted because of an EFS file
    • User chose to cancel (such as pressing CTRL+C)
      
• 3: USMT_WOULD_HAVE_FAILED
  • Error message: At least one error was skipped as a result of /c.
  • Troubleshooting, mitigation, workarounds: Review ScanState, LoadState, or UsmtUtils log for details about command-line errors.
