Thank you for replying to my post, wimlib will do it, its imagex is quite similar to WinPE 3.0's Imagex. All i want to know is, do i have to put all the files downloaded from http://sourceforge.net ( wimlib-1.7.0-windows-i686-bin.zip), to a pendrive. {wimlib-imagex is largely just a command-line front-end for wimlib as mentioned in the notes} Will that do the trick, just need confirmation, and i am going to check and perform a restore by wimlib. Thank you.
