linkking Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Hi! The tool install_wim_tweak.exe has an unhide option that shows packages that normally dism wouldn't see. I wonder, how does it do this, and can I do it without using this tool? Edited August 11, 2016 by linkking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Most probably it is the "visibility" setting in the Registry: jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkking Posted August 11, 2016 Author Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) Ahh, ok thanks I got it. It sets the value Visibility to 1 It also creates a new DWORD value named DefVis and set the value to 2 And deletes the subkey Owners After one has taken ownership of the key, removal with dism is possible.

jaclaz Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Most probably the DefVis is a (completely arbitrary) addition - possibly standing for "Default Visibility" - to allow to distinguish "modified" keys/packages from "untouched" ones... jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
