    to be able to convert wim to iso, you just have to do the following:
    1. Download first the Windows Automated Installation Kit from microsoft.com/downloads.
    2. You also have to make sure that the wim file is located on the root c:/directory.
    3. Open a Windows Preinstallation Environment and copy the wim file into it. Type "CopyPE <architecture> C:\Winpe" to create the environment, then "Copy /y c:\discover.wim c:\Winpe\ISO\Sources" to copy the file into the environment.
    4. The next step is to navigate back into PETools by typing the command: "Cd C:\Program Files\Windows AIK\Tools\PETools"
    5. The final step is to type "Oscdimg -n -bc:\winpe\ISO\boot\etfsboot.com c:\winpe\ISO c:\<imagename>.iso". This will create an ISO image from the contents of the Preinstallation Environment.

    I hope each step is clear.

    I have pro installed on my VM, took a bit of mucking around though, had to map the VM drive then extract the pro install from the install.wim and then coppied to the maped VM drive, then I disconnected the drive and mounted a windows 8 ISO and used the repair option to start cmd, then I rebuilt BCD with bootrec /rebuildbcd and then did a startup repair, now the OS loaded and asked me to set the region and then eneter a product key, it let me miss that step and went on to set up a new account.

    You can't, the file is corrupted but it seems there may be a workaround in progress.

    Extract ISO. Replace anything that said it was corrupt what whatever from Chinese iso (so far just a jpg picture), pack it back up into a .wim and replace that new .wim you made with one of the chinese ent leaked iso.
