Manually convert an esd unencrypted file into an iso file

[mazzaroc]

Hi

 

Using only Windows ADK 10, I can manually convert an esd unencrypted file into an iso file
with the install.wim or install.esd file? If so, what are the commands to do this?

 

Thanks

I don' think that much has changed since 8.1.

The ESD2WIM batch:

http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/171716-prepare-and-slipstream-updates-in-to-a-windows-81-wim-or-esd-image/

should give you a good base.

 

Then you will need to create the .iso, info in this seemingly unrelated thread:

http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/172122-got-tips-on-how-to-make-a-bootable-cd-from-bootable-usb/

should do nicely.

In short, to do this, I should run the following commands

 

dism.exe /Apply-Image /ImageFile:"esd_File_Path>\install.esd" /Index:<Index_Number> /ApplyDir:"<Temp_Dir>"rmdir /s /q <Temp_Dir>dism /Quiet /Capture-Image /ImageFile:<Capture_Wim_Dir>\install.wim /CaptureDir:<Temp_Dir> /Name:"container" /Compress:max /CheckIntegritydism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:<Capture_Wim_Dir>\install.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:<Windows_Files>\install.wim /compress:recovery /CheckIntegritydel <Capture_Wim_Dir>\install.wim

 

for each volume image of Windows that I would. At this point, I should have the install.wim. Right?

 

Now, I can not understand how can I get the other files which make the DVD.

 

Someone could help me?

 

Thanks

You'll need a Windows 10 DVD of course!

But where did you get the install.esd from, the free upgrade? You can save a lot of work by downloading the entire thing using the MediaCreationTool.

I found this script inserted in the http://deploymentresearch.com/Research/Post/399/How-to-REALLY-create-a-Windows-10-ISO-no-3rd-party-tools-neededpage but I can not understand why the author creates, first, an empty volume image in the boot.wim and install.wim files, and then they are deleted. Why?

 

Thanks

It looks like it was due to compression?

Thinks it was different compression types, at least there was a reason

An interesting non-answer.
