microsd flash failed after verification

I tried to copy an image file
from a gzip’s image (dd) file of a raspberrypi boot drive
to an sd card
on 2 different pcs (win10 and win11)

Based on the log, the write seems to be ok, but the verify fails. The only message I see is “Flash Failed” in the gui.

Here’s the log starting at the end of the verify…

Hi,

based on the logs, the verification is also ok.
gui.js:35 Verifying 1 device, 100% at 78.90 MB/s (total 78.90 MB/s) eta in 0s with 0 failed devices
I think it is a confusing message, which can be caused by an error parsing the results or another issue when trying to unmount the flashed device.
Your sdcard should be flashed successfully and able to boot the RPi.
