WIM File - Extract and Modify

This is what I did wim file - Extract and Modify after this is finished How do you create a wim file after it's been modified and put it back to wim file for it to work

Hi, thanx for the tutorial. I followed the steps successfully but wanted to know where the modified install.wim is? Will it be placed back on the c drive?

Thanks.
It worked for me.I edited boot.wim and install.wim & made changes.when i will install it i will be having everything i added.

hey ,
i do all those things which u tell to do ! then i open the command ... i enter those code and the result was ' imagex' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file......

although i download only the ' imagex.exe 'file from the google!!

hy author,

i thought i should edit the ' install.wim' file in my own way. i do the following steps:-
1) extract the content of install.wim file by using "winmount"
2)then add the 'MICROSOFT OFFICE ' to program file in filder named '1'
3) and then convert it again to wim file format by using "gimagex".
4)i replace the old install.wim file in windows 7 cd in sources folder with this new one..
5) burn it to dvd
6) boots but when i click on install it shows the message '
Windows could not display the images available for installation.'

pls help me how to install windows 7 which have preinstalled microsfot office

Please Help me.

hi,nice working tut. but how that commit works? my wim file is getting bigger even if i delete files... I deleted about 250MB from .wim and file is bigger about +2MB(at start 1000MB, after delete 1002MB).

It doesn't pack tightly using commit.

It will keep getting bigger.

Suggest you use Export and select max compression.

You can't export with win7 dism - use command imagex, or much easier to use Gimagex

GImageX - AutoItScript
