Look at the logon Service account in Windows Services for PXE Manager. It will show the account being used. Add this account to the Security NTFS permissions for eXpress Share.

  1. Right-click on the eXpress share, scroll to Properties > Security, and add the account.
  2. Reboot the Deployment Server

When it reboots within the Windows Services, right-click on the PXE Manager service and restart. It will restart with no issue within a second or two.
