prathapml Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 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).

prathapml Posted January 6, 2007 Author Share Posted January 6, 2007 @MAVERICKS CHOICEHere'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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prathapml Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
