Hello,
I’m having the same problem when running the Embedded File Extractor module, for autopsy to work I had to disable this module
OS: Windows 10 Pro
Version: 4.14.0
Is it a physical
I’ve used it many times without having this problem.

It will condition the results in the next lab.

Hello
Problem identified.

The Embedded File Extractor Module blocked after a few seconds of processing. To solve the problem, I tested it with several forensic images and it gave error with all of these modules.

Solution to delete the content C: \ Users \ gorka \ AppData \ Roaming \ autopsy. and run the autopsy again

Possibly some incompatibility with another module that I installed.
