    Hi everyone.

    So right now I'm in the process of converting an install.esd to WIM

    I have the command

    Code:
    dism /export-image /sourceimagefile:x:\sources\install.esd /sourceindex:1 /destinationimage:x:\wim\install.wim /compress:max /checkintegrity
    The problem is that the esd has about 12 indexes and I don't know which one's which.

    So I don't know how to go about specifying the sourceindex

    I would hate to have to extract each and every single index to find out which version is which...

    What is the command to view an index with DISM.

    Thanks in advance :)

    BTW: It's an ISO with a compressed install.esd

    I tried that but didn't work. I don't mean that I downloaded an esd and am trying to convert it.

    It's an ISO already with a compressed install.esd inside of it.
    And that install.esd has 12 indexes inside of it.

    It doesn't have install.wim

    I put the install.esd in abbodi1406 decryption tool and crazy stuff happened :D
    That didn't work out.
