Distrobuilder

I am trying to run distrobuilder to create a windows 10 VM using the command
“sudo distrobuilder repack-windows --windows-version=w10 windows10.iso win10.lxd.iso”

and for hours no matter what i try i keep getting the error:err=“Failed to detect Windows architecture. Please provide the architecture using the --windows-arch flag”

i am a beginner to linux and am coming from Unraid to LXD please go easy.

Try passing --windows-arch=amd64 but normally both the version and architecture should get auto-detected. Where did you get your windows10.iso?

This command completely worked, i tagged up with scott thompson of the scottibyte channel and he set me straight.
