    You are absolutely right. I am teaching a young student of Computer Engineering how to service an image and she created a WIN_ENT in place of WIM_ENT despite I explicitly told her to double (triple?) check all directories... :doh:

    Thanks anyway.

    They probably expect you to get from the build ESD/ISO

    You mean clean or vanilla winpe image, that don't have any optional winpe packages

    boot.wim (index 1) also serves the purpose, it only have these packs, which most are needed anyway to build useful PE
    Code:
    WinPE-EnhancedStorage-Package
    WinPE-Scripting-Package
    WinPE-SecureStartup-Package
    WinPE-SRT-Package
    WinPE-WDS-Tools-Package
    WinPE-WMI-Package
    
    boot.wim (index 2) include the setup packs additionally
    Code:
    WinPE-Setup-Package
    WinPE-Setup-Client-Package
    
    winre.wim includes these packs additionally
    Code:
    WinPE-FMAPI-Package
    WinPE-FontSupport-WinRE-Package
    WinPE-Fonts-Legacy-Package
    WinPE-HTA-Package
    WinPE-Rejuv-Package
    WinPE-StorageWMI-Package
    WinPE-WiFi-Package

    If possible, can you share the Deployment Tools from the new WADK.

    No need for your tool. Ask user to extract whole ISO to DVD folder. And use the dism in DVD\sources.

    May I ask someone to please provide information on how I can "burn" Win 10 ISO image to a virtual partition (like OEMs do when they write OS to drive "X" from which you can re-install the OS) so that I would be able to install it from there instead of using DVD all the time?

    Thanks

    There are many ways to do so.

    But for your scop, likely, the best option is to copy the iso somewhere (not necessarily a separate partition) then add the iso to the boot menu using easybcd.

    Then, when you want to reinstall, just launch the setup from your bootloader menu, exactly as you would do from the DVD or Pendrive.
