is winre.wim checked in path \Recovery\WinRE\winre.w im too ? useful for backup/restore on another hardware.

there is a line in WinNTSetup.Drivers.log : 2021-04-24 20:29:30, Info DISM DISM Driver Manager: PID=26656 TID=29716 Driver E:\install\Driver injection\...\iaStorVD.inf is boot-critical. - CDriverPackage::FillInPackageDetails then select only *.inf boot-critical to re-apply to winre.wim , easy to write but to you to code

would be nice if critical driver injection can be done in Windows\system32\Recovery\WinRE.wim ! just installed an hp laptop intel 11th gen wich need driver injection of "intel rst vmd" because win10 out of the box doesn't detect disk ... driver integration ok , but "reset this pc" fails at reboot.

is it possible to RemoveBootMountsOnExit to remove letter of the efi boot letter selected in winntsetup after successful applied image ? this prevent windows to display the letter of the efi partition in explorer even with disk is unplugged. this bug doesn't exist with MBR boot part. edit: my problem is my diskpart script mount the EFI part letter before WinNTSetup, but after thinking myself, i can skip this step in my diskpart script !

thanks , it seems first line of diskpart / detail disk . for my case, my two NVMe disk has name : HD2: NVMe Samsung SSD 970 HD3: NVMe Samsung SSD 970 but the first is a 970 Pro and the second is a 970 Evo :-( can be Disk ID supported for BootExclude ?

Thanks for improvements ! an example ? is BootMountExclude support GUID disk ID ? edit: tried guid disk : or serial number from get-disk powershell : not supported

DisableHiberBoot seems can't be set in the .ini , isn't it ?

can we set usage of MergeIDE_9200 automatically in WinNTSetup.ini ?

StartOverride is recreted automatically if deleted value of the "0" (in this case dword 0) of the StartOverride will override "Start" value of storahci so StartOverride is needed for Win8+ Reboot once in SafeMode is ok too , SafeMode re-enable ahci needed, not in Normal, Microsoft' logic ... edit: i don't think enabling old ide driver is needed, machines using these are abandoned

i need sometime to re-enable ahci support after winntsetup because previous captured system was raid or ide or exotic controller ... perhaps a direct option to enable / restore ahci would be nice ? ;Win8 to Win10 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\storahci\StartOverride] "0"=dword:00000000 ;Win7 + Vista [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\msahci] "Start"=dword:00000000

I "Map" virtual disk of a VM under VmWare Workstation (v15.5.1) , format vmdk or vhd, same issue. I open winntsetup, not needed to open iso or select drive, just open then close , then virtual drive mounted by VmWare gets disconnected.

is it possible to disable winnt setup disconnect vmware mounted drive/letter at close ?

ok, is it possible to set into the .ini ?

is capture from winntsetup use "norpfix" option with WIMGAPI and with WIMLIB ?

thanks for update. no problems yet using "capture wim" from local installations. is there a log of the "capture" process ? in case of failures , to know more details (at which file was the error to skip it on next backup) , or in case of sucess to check exclusions.

just discovered wimgapi (gimagex/winntsetup/dism) can support 54 non empty lines in [ExclusionList] WimLib doesn't have this limitation. is possible to add "None" compression to capture ? for large windows + data backup it's faster.

integrated drivers are stored in C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository

thanks for clarification ! Combox Box is after "Do Not Update ..." I though was related. perhaps ComboxBox can be below, in a new line "Boot files" ...

"Use classic legacy boot menu" can't be done if "Do not update the boot code" selected , isn't it ? ( because it's "bcdedit /set {default} bootmenupolicy legacy" , no ? ) ... sorry for my english ...

in "Setup" dialog, these options sould be greyed when "Do not update the boot code" , isn't it ? Button [ ALL/BIOS/UEFI ] Find and add Windows version already installed on this PC Use classic "legacy" boot menu

it's working fine disabling multicore

ok for cpu , I was thinking about wrong hyper threading detection ... I've just tried the restore system of a Microsoft Surface 3 (Win10 v1511) 4 files with format *.swm ; directly downloader from Microsoft. WinNTSetup seems apply first swm then error -> Error : Applying System image failed! 0x6: Descripteur non valide even with wimlib.dll If i apply with dism or WinNTSetup3.9.4 , there isn't error.

On my system , cpu is intel Core i5-9600k ( 6 cores without hyperthreading ) WinNTSetup use x3 active cores, is normal ?

try alternate windows update http://download.wsusoffline.net/ then retry windows update after reboot after wsus
