Simplix Pack to update Live Win7 System/ Integrate hotfixes into Win7 distribution

I decided few minutes ago to suscribe at the Russian forum to make my petition, but guess what? Only Cyrillic allowed

I probably have to do this for all the indexes in my aio right?

 

Yes you have to

 

Should I just add the commands for each index before the compressing command and add the other indexes tot he compressing command?

Code:

@Echo off
REM Create Mount folder for your WIM
MD %~dp0MOUNT

REM Mount index 1 to the Mount Folder created
Dism.exe /Mount-Wim /WimFile:%~dp0boot.wim /index:1 /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT

REM add all the drivers from x86-Drivers folder (recursive)
Dism.exe /image:%~dp0MOUNT /Add-Driver /Driver:"%~dp0x86-Drivers" /Recurse

REM Unmount the WIM and commit changes
Dism.exe /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT /commit

REM Delete the Mounted folder (just in case it is left behind)
RD Mount


REM Mount index 2 to the Mount Folder created
Dism.exe /Mount-Wim /WimFile:%~dp0boot.wim /index:2 /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT

REM add all the drivers from x86-Drivers folder (recursive)
Dism.exe /image:%~dp0MOUNT /Add-Driver /Driver:"%~dp0x86-Drivers" /Recurse

REM Unmount the WIM and commit changes
Dism.exe /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT /commit

REM Delete the Mounted folder (just in case it is left behind)
RD Mount

REM Mount index 3 to the Mount Folder created
Dism.exe /Mount-Wim /WimFile:%~dp0boot.wim /index:3 /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT

REM add all the drivers from x86-Drivers folder (recursive)
Dism.exe /image:%~dp0MOUNT /Add-Driver /Driver:"%~dp0x86-Drivers" /Recurse

REM Unmount the WIM and commit changes
Dism.exe /Unmount-Wim /MountDir:%~dp0MOUNT /commit

REM Delete the Mounted folder (just in case it is left behind)
RD Mount


REM Though you do not need this step I prefer to rename the boot.wim to source.wim
REN boot.Wim source.wim

REM Compress the indexes to file boot.wim with max compression
dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:source.wim /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:boot.wim /Compress:Max
dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:source.wim /SourceIndex:2 /DestinationImageFile:boot.wim /Compress:Max
dism /Export-Image /SourceImageFile:source.wim /SourceIndex:3 /DestinationImageFile:boot.wim /Compress:Max

Pause

AFAIK, you only add the drivers to BOOT.WIM Index: 2!!! You do not add the drivers to the Index 1 of BOOT.WIM

The Windows Updates are integrated into INSTALL.WIM, where you normally choose to add to all 4/5 indexes.

I do have the commands if you wanted to integrate the updates "by hand" but the Simplix Pack updates your Install.Wim much easier for you, hence why I only use this method now.

 

Agreed. Besides if you want to add USB 3.0 drivers, AFAIK they must be integrated to boot.wim index 2 ONLY and install.wim every single index you need, i.e. if you need an AIO you need to add them to all indexes, one by one.

 

I had not drunk my coffee by this point, so yes Mass storage is usually Boot.wim index:2
Then you should if you need other drivers for your all-in-one to integrate to the install.wim indexes one at a time.

Like the Simplix tool needs to update each index in install.wim, so the drivers will need to be integrated 4/5 times depending on architecture.

 

I'm a bit confused now.
After applying simplix pack with index=* , how would I go about this?

 

UpdatePack7Live.exe /ie11 /WimFile=D:\w7\sources\install.wim /Index=5

what am I do wrong?

x64 windows have 4 index
x86 windows have 5 index

Check & verify

 

You are going from drive c: to D:
Cannot do that, because Simplix Pack is using DISM/WAIK that is installed on system drive c:/
Commands should be:

Code:

C:\users\Dan>cd/ (and press enter) (command cd/ is used to come to command prompt c:)
than,
C:\>UpdatePack7Live.exe /ie11 /WimFile=C:\w7\sources\install.wim /Index=5 (press enter)

(UpdatePack7Live.exe should be placed on drive c:/)

 

I have been successfully using UpdatePack7Live on my D: drive for months. I guess nobody told my computer it must be on C:

 

x64

thanks da me yes it works even on D:

UpdatePack7Live.exe /ie11 /WimFile=D:\w7\sources\install.wim /Index=4

Yes I agree, but take into account, well everybody should, the workspace is always on C: drive. You don't notice this as the program does work silently on C.

 

@EaglePC
run the commands as from C: and tell us what happened

Also, as apologized is saying, check the wim if it is 64 or 32bit. For Windows 7 Ultimate x64, image index is 4 (there is no index 5). And for Windows 7 Ultimate x86, image index is 5.

@Nimbus2000,
Windows 7 system is by default always installed on C:\ drive. As MisterX mentioned, when working with apps, games, and everything else Windows is using his system resources from C drive no matter if app or game or whatever is placed on other drive.

I don't know what EaglePC has on his D drive, that's why I am cautious that there is something on that drive that maybe isn't friendly with WAIK/DISM used by SimplixPack.
If error continues even on C drive, than I would recommend something else. Re-installing WAIK would be the last advice if nothing else helps.

 

Hello everyone

I have a problem integrate updates to 64 bit windows 7 ISO (X17-59465.iso).
My laptop running on Win7 x64, I'm using UpdatePack7R2-14.3.15.
It's going well until get to KB2761217 then I'm getting - The return code is 4350
after that every KB get - The return code is 0x800F0830
I did windows 7 32bit ISO (X17-59463.iso) without any problems, but can't 64 bit.
I did re-install WAIK, have enough space on HD still nothing.
Today I tried do this on different laptop with fresh installed windows 7 32bit still the same errors.
I have to re-install Windows 7 x64 on two family members laptops and doing it without all updates integrated will take my forever.
Any ideas?

 

That being said, leave at least 10GB of free space on your C: drive/partition. Thus you won't get any issue with simplix's pack.

 

Sup guys. I already have a Windows 7 iso file previously updated by Simplix Pack. Is there any problem to update it again? Do I need to rebuild the entire image or if I replace the wim file inside the iso it'll work just fine? Thanks!
