I'm trying to do a clean install for Windows 10 using a usb. I used the Media Creation Tool provided by Microsoft. Currently, I take Windows 10 installed on my SSD, merely instead want to install on my HDD. Everytime I attempt to boot the usb drive, during the loading screen for setup, I become this error message: "Windows cannot read <product fundamental> from unattend respond file".
I have never encountered a bulletin similar this nor have I always dealt with an "unattend answer file". I looked online and I constitute many solutions for people using VM, but non much for people doing a clean install.
Here is what I tried:
Used Media Cosmos Tool to install Windows x on usb.
Attempted to try and discover answer file location.
Unhooked all of my drives.
Unhooked my drive that has the operating system.
Tried burning Windows 10 ISO onto usb.
Looked online for other solutions.
TLDR; I'm getting the "Windows cannot read <product key> from unattend reply file" when doing a clean install of Windows 10 using a usb.
Cheers to everyone, who took the fourth dimension to view this.

"Windows cannot read <product fundamental> from unattend answer file"
This should not exist happening. Upgraded and activated should outcome in a valid digital entitlement license.
And during the initial setup? No way that should appear.
All I can propose is to call MS.

Pitiful for not responding back most the outcome, but unfortunately Microsoft Back up couldn't help me. However, I call back I know what may have caused the consequence. I did upgrade my motherboard and processor, which if I'm not mistaken is necessary for activation. I'thousand non sure if that is helpful information or not.

Even with a new motherboard, it should progress beyond the point y'all're seeing.
