Can I build Win PE 5 using Win7
I want to use the Windows Preinstalled Environment 5.0 (better known as Win PE 5.0) for repair and troubleshooting. I really like the idea of a self-contained, all-inclusive, customized single tool. I want to download the appropriate Windows AIK and build the disk on my Win 7 system. Does the Win PE use the files for building the PE from MY offset or is it all contained within the AIK proper? So what IS the answer and is there anything else that is not obvious that I should consider? I have done quite a bit of research thus far and I am just about to do it. I have mostly abandoned my Win 10 system, even after going through ALL of the preview, testing program (it was interesting but the final build likes to lie hidden from my control. Way too scary!). If need be, I could use the Win 10 system but why should I if I don't need to? So this question also has academic value to me also.
