Popular Post Arthur Posted October 5, 2019 Popular Post Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) This looks good! Website / Download (Mirror) / GitHub Repo WIM Witch is a utility that can be used to update and modify WIM files for Windows deployment scenarios. It allows the WIM to be patched, drivers to be applied, in-box applications to be removed, and .Net 3.5 binaries to be injected. It also supports the ability to inject an Autopilot configuration file into the WIM file to support “Autopilot For Existing Device” deployments. It accomplishes this by providing the user with a GUI to setup the desired configuration. Once the parameters have been configured, the image can be created, or the configuration saved for use with command line functionality. To get started, simply run the script with Administrative rights. WIM Witch will start a pre-flight check to see if its folders exist in the folder that the script was run. If it doesn’t detect any of its folders, it will start the installation routine. Downloading and Maintaining the software update catalog – GUI If this is the first time WIM Witch has been run, WIM Witch may detect that OSDUpdate and OSDSUS have not been installed. It will also check to see what the latest version available is. WIM Witch uses David Segura’s OSDUpdate and OSDSUS modules to handle updates downloading and superseding. These modules will need to be kept up to date to ensure access to new software updates. Once WIM Witch’s GUI loads, click on the “Updates” tab. If the modules have not been installed previously, “Not Installed” should be in the “Installed Version” fields. Downloading and Maintaining the software update catalog – Command Line The following arguments can be passed to the script from command line in order to maintain the WIM Witch software update catalog. .\WIMWitch.ps1 -updates yes -OSDSUS update -Superseded delete -DownUpdates all Edited October 5, 2019 by ZeroHour 11

pete Posted October 7, 2019 Posted October 7, 2019 Can this detect an existing OSD setup? Or is it start from scratch?
mdrabble Posted October 8, 2019 Posted October 8, 2019 Anyone having issues trying to Import WIM and .Net Binaries? I'm getting errors about Get-WindowImage and the system cannot find the path specified - $iso\sources\install.wim Cheers
MYK-IT Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 WIM Witch 1.2.3 now released, with Windows 10 1909 support. Website 1
hyb80 Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Has anyone come across difficulties when removing apps? It allows you to select them but then fails on removal stating they do not exist? However they do and remain within the WIM. Edited November 25, 2019 by hyb80
Arthur Posted November 25, 2019 Author Posted November 25, 2019 It allows you to select them but then fails on removal stating they do not exist? Which Windows 10 install.wim are you using?
hyb80 Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) I can see what it is now. When I select my WIM I dont get the option to select what version of Windows. It just populates with the name of the WIM. I tried with W10 media and it works fine. Is there a good way to edit an existing WIM file so it picks up the version (Enterprise etc) Edited November 25, 2019 by hyb80
Arthur Posted November 25, 2019 Author Posted November 25, 2019 Is there a good way to edit an existing WIM file so it picks up the version (Enterprise etc) Unfortunately not. Neither WIM Witch or OSDBuilder work with captured WIM files. You would need to use the WIM from your W10 install media. 1
hyb80 Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Oh well, thought that might be the case. So start from scratch I presume?
sonofsanta Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 Honestly disappointed they didn't call it WIM Away. Missed opportunity. 1
witch Posted November 26, 2019 Posted November 26, 2019 Honestly disappointed they didn't call it WIM Away. Missed opportunity. Nothing wrong with the name they chose 2
