    Tried this, but it seems the updates create a pending.xml anyway, so it doesn't work :(

    Afaik this first needs WADK installed and run from the WADK CMD.

    Easiest way would be to manually mount the WIM from there, then convert to WMC, copy files manually to the mounted Windows\system32\spp\store\2.0 folder and at least export, commit/unmount - DONE :D.

    BTW: The 'DISM and IMAGEX' section (in 'SYSTEM TOOLS' sub menu) of my JATD script offers the option to convert to ProfessionalWMC, and holds all files needed. You only have to copy the Tokens files manually before commit/unmount stage, you'll be asked previously :cool2:. Only enter index and pathes to WIM and mount folder.

    NOTE: Copy WIM manually to folder of your choice and start the process.

    LOL, haven't tried this, so you will get a over-sized wim anyway, this supports my idea that these patches wouldn't be the final release. :p

    Loudly, i need to perform multiple integrations, the Script executes mounting and un-mounting for each integration, I can do only mounting at the beginning and at the end integrations implement un-mounting?

    Yep, best is create ProWMC, activate .NET as second option, then integrate Updates (i also updated the boot.wim and the ISO files) with MSMGs script. Not sure what you need else.

    Audit Mode is a special Installation Mode in Windows Setup (can be reached by pressing Ctrl-Shift-F3 when beeing asked to enter an user name and password), this Mode is used by OEMs and similiar to prepare their Install Media.

    Did it my self this way:

    #1. Use the Create ProWMC to mount and set the ProWMC, then skip the unmount and further.

    #2. Use 'Enable .Net' and skip the mount/unmount stages, only use the integration. NOTE: Do not unmount now.

    #3. Copy the Tokens to the mounted Windows\system32\spp\store\2.0 folder.

    #4. Unmount the WIM (will commit changes and then unmount)

    #5. Copy the Windows ISO files and the new WIM to the \DVD\ subfolder of MSMGs tool.

    #6. Copy the Update files to the \Updates\x64 or the x86 subfolder matching your architecture. I renamed mine to look like 'windows8.1-kb2919442-x64.msu', not sure whether it's necessary (got the ones with SHA1 hash in the filename).

    #7. Let the tool process all wanted process and rebuild ISO at least.

    #8. Create bootable pendrive with the tool you prefer.

    HINT: In case you have the mounted folder still open in Explorer the unmount might fail to complete, the WIM will be good though, so close before unmounting :cool2:.

    In case this happens ... DON'T PANIC :D ... use the discard option of my tool to wipe the folder.
