I have four files that were split up into *.swm files, & this image has multiple images inside it.
Now, i want to get back the original *.WIM file - with ALL the 7 images inside it.
How?

imagex.exe offered only to split, & not to obtain the merged WIM back again (i dont want to create a wim using index number of one of the images inside, i want to bring back all of them, as it originally was).

Can't really help here but would you mind lettin me know briefly how you extracted each singley with ImageX?

Here's an example of how to restore one of the images inside a WIM, or a split-up-WIM:

imagex /apply WindowsNT6-buildnumber.store.swm [image number] [destination path]

You'd find that to extract Vista starter edition alone from the WIM on the RTM dvd, you'd use this command:

imagex.exe /apply v:\sources\install.wim 1 c:\test

Here is the command for extracting SWMs

This does exactly what you want

To merge SWM files use this command

Quote

imagex /ref source*.swm /check /export source.swm 1 target.wim "UniqueName"

Thanks obsteel !
the number "1" would mean that only one of the images will be extracted into a WIM. Is there anyway to get all of it though?
