From the repo README:

PLEASE NOTE: This project is not recommended on recent versions of Windows and many applications written for Windows Vista and later require features that are not supported. It is based on an old design for compatibility with as old versions as Windows NT 3.51. No new features will be added to this project but it will remain available here because it could still be useful in certain scenarios.

I will continue development of Arsenal Image Mounter instead. That has a different design and emulates complete disks and is compatible with most cases where physical disk are normally used. https://github.com/ArsenalRecon/Arsenal-Image-Mounter

tldr: use Arsenal Image Mounter instead.
