Workaround:

On the machine where you run the MDT Bundle creator tool: you can either temporarily disable the antivirus program for the time necessary to create the bundle, or you can configure the antivirus program to allow the WAIK or WADK (dism.exe) program to run.

Windows ADK for Windows 10 (WADK 10) installation action fails on Windows 7, Windows 2008, or Windows 2008 R2 targets

If you choose WADK 10 and MDT 2013 Update 1 when you install the MDT Bundle Creator using the Bundle and Media Manager dashboard and select a Windows 7, Windows 2008, or Windows 2008 R2 target, the WADK 10 installation action might fail. This problem can also occur when you run the WADK 10 installation Fixlet individually on one of the above operating systems.

Solution/Workaround:

The problem occurs because the required Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5 is not already installed on these operating systems. The Fixlet invokes the adk installer to install .NET Framework the first time it is run, but exits without completing the ADK installation. To solve the problem, reboot the MDT Bundle Creator machine, and rerun the MDT Bundle Creator installation action sequence from the dashboard. If you launched the Fixlet individually, verify that Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.5 is installed on the selected target , then rerun the Fixlet.
