Diagnosing NS_E_DRM_INVALID_MIGRATION_IMAGE
0xC00D2788 means the migration image itself cannot be accepted: its format, integrity/signature, version or source identity does not satisfy the WMDRM migration importer. The target store can be healthy and still reject this image.
Evidence to preserve
- migration-image size, hash, creation time and source system/user identity;
- image format/version and the exact validation stage that returned this HRESULT;
- copy/transport history so truncation or transformation can be ruled out;
- importer version and the first lower-level parsing, signature or identity result.
Focused test
Compare the received image byte-for-byte with the source artifact, then generate a new image through the supported export path without altering the target DRM store. If the new image imports, the original artifact or its transfer was defective; if both fail identically, compare exporter/importer versions and source identity requirements.
Correction and verification
Regenerate or recopy the migration image rather than repairing protected state blindly. Verify that the exact image passes validation and import starts; a later per-license or target-store HRESULT should be diagnosed separately.
