wimlib

Edit: Well In now think it actually pauses because I click into the power shell window which seems to be a feature of powershell itself... OS: Server 2012 R2 I had wimlib pausing execution for no apparent reason the secound time now. The first time was with an official version (I think it was 1.10 b...

Have you tested the command on files that are inaccessible due to wrong reparse point information? Mabye that's the problem, although I hoped that wouldn't be an issue for deleting reparse points. Thanks for your hint for only skipping Data Deduplication reparse points, that sounds a lot better than...

Good idea but I only get an "error: access denied" (running as admin). I took a look into the source code of wimlib and found do_set_reparse_point in win32_apply.c. Is this where all the reparse points are written after writing the data? So I maybe could just try to replace the function bo...

Ok, I did a small test (only a few files) with version 1.10.0 vs version 1.11.0-BETA2 The wim captured by 1.11 is a little smaller, about 1%, but this propably hevily depends on the use case. | captured with applied with | 1.10 | 1.11 | imagex | dism 6.3.9600.17031 (Server 2012R2) -------------|----...

Thanks for your quick work. Sadly it doesn't help, the issue after extraction stays the same. So I tried creating a small new wim (using imagex with verify, check and no compression) that contains the issue and after a few iterations I succeded. It just contains two small, identical files. One of th...

Thanks for your quick reply. As far as I know you are correct about how Window's deduplication works. I did not include System Volume Information but I verified that the wim contains the contents of the problematic files. I also verified that the extraction also extracts these data. I assume that th...

I created a wim with imagex (using verify and check, no compression) from a volume which had deduplication (dhe one integrated into Win 2012R2 Server) enabled. Extracting using verify and check failed badly after a few files. Extracting without verify+check succeeded but most of the files were not r...
