That worked.  I suspected a permission issue and that is why I tried
putting it in c:\temp which did not help.   I did this on a Windows 10
computer and the "run as administrator" command is not directly on the
right click menu (for the deployment tools command prompt) but is under a
"more" option when you right click.
