I am trying to use my HP LTO drive with the LTFS wizard in Windows. I get the following errors (Windows 7 32-bit and Windows Server 2008 32-bit):

LTFS15000I Starting mkltfs, HP StoreOpen Standalone version 2.2.0, log level 2

There is no problem using the Library & Tape Tools in Windows, and the drive works fine with both Library & Tape Tools and LTFS on CentOS Linux.

Why does only LTFS on Windows have a problem? How can I solve this error?
