    I have my Windows 8.1 AIO with x64 Recovery Mode.
    What is the best way to integrate only the Update 1 without updating everything and break my Recovery Mode ?

    There's no way mate. Must update all and every iso file you include in AIO, separately, then create AIO. If I were you, would wait until Spring Update isos leaks by WZor. Leak is imminent. ;)

    Dear MSMG,

    I can put more updates in the updates folder to be added to the image that will be worked or only those described above?:confused:

    Thanks in advanced,

    Marcelo

    you mean you have a Windows 8.1 AIO (x86/x64) with x86 boot and x64 recovery mode. you want to update only install.wim with update 1. am I right?

    yes you can use the toolkit but the problem is that, even though the toolkit has option '*' to update all indexes in the wim image at once, the wim indexes should be either x86 or x64 but not mixed. so the only option you have now is to update each index manually by selecting the index number when asked.

    you can also update the boot.wim with update 1 if required.

    Use my Main Toolkit for integration of updates/drivers/custompacks/netfx35/wmc/removeMetroApps and so on..

    you can find the main toolkit in my signature. soon this toolkit will get merged with the main toolkit.

    Make sure you have disabled UAC as when you use the toolkit in the c:\ or c:\users\<username>Desktop/Downloads/Documents it may give errors. the error you are getting is that the toolkit can't access the file wiminfo1.txt which it creates for displaying the list of wim indexes present in the wim image.

    rarely this error appears, am still trying to use a alternative way to display the list of indexes present in the wim images.

    but even If you get this error, you can still use the toolkit by entering the index # you want to update if you know the index number.

    It would be good to have a minimum disk space requirement in the instructions file and also [have an option to] stop on error (apologies if the script already does that, but I got the impression it didn't). I ran out of space with about 15 GB available while updating the boot/install images for both 8.1 and 8.1 Pro (MSDN image).

    Cheers.

    Hi,
    I am thinking about integrating the 6 updates into my Windows 8.1 DVD, but I am running Windows 7 right now. Just to make sure, can I do this on Windows 7? Do I need to install something fist?
    Thanks so much. Have a wonderful time.

    Yes you can use the toolkit on Windows 7 and don't need anything else other than the Windows 8.1 ISO and the updates.

    Hi again,
    Thanks for your reply.
    When wanting to do the option 1, I get this error:

    Error: 126

    An error occurred. DISM could not be initialized in the local folder.
    Ensure that DISM is installed correctly and that all of the binaries are present.
    Well, I disabled my MSE. I did not touch the folders. I'm sure I copied everything right because I used your tool a few times in Windows 8.1 before.
    Let's also say that I used your main toolkie successfully on Windows 7.
    Thanks.
    Edit: I decided to copy and replace the downloaded WADK files from your main toolkit to the new "w81u1" tool and seams it now work. Just thought to let me know. I will try to do the work on a Windows 8.1 later anyway.

    The option three, I have tested properly, and the path problem you have specified, this path is for the option 4 make iso and its correct.

    set BIOSBoot=%~dp0DVD\boot\etfsboot.com
    set UEFIBoot=%~dp0DVD\efi\microsoft\boot\efisys.bin

    may be something else might be the problem...

    You're using a special DVD layout, which the tool cannot properly detect (it expects the default layout) ... so no wonder.
