wimlib

Hi JFX,

I would try reg load/unload to edit mounted devices,

and access that with regedit.exe GUI first.


Thanks for sharing info.

Thanks JFX & Tokener,

I would try:

1. copy files from Tokener mentioned,
(
but I have copy the whole c's config from C: to D: before;
if you are talking about copy from dism++ applied drive, it might be the JFX's solution?
)
2. update the mount device key

could you share more information ...

Hi Tokener,

windows 10 1909 pro capture by wimlib,
and
apply with wimlib --> fail
apply with dism++ --> success

their apply time very close, and both of them after apply,

I would do bcdboot setting manually.

Hi Tokener,

Did you mean after copy/replace the config, windows could successfully boot?
---------
After replace the whole config folder, still not working when select D: to boot.


With dism++ and bcdboot set, windows boot entry would display 2 windows;
and switch different entry (partition) to ...

Did you successfully transfer live system to another partition/disk?

If yes, what arguments with apply command you use?

We have encountered boot issue when using wimlib to restore but worked by using dism++.
(same backup .wim file captured by wimlib)

Thanks.

Im using wimlib to capture running c: and apply it to d: (same disk),

but after apply the wim file and bcdboot setting, I can't boot into windows with black screen;

another test with dism++(they said cbs based) to apply wim file (capture by wimlib),

it boot successfully with bcdboot setting ...
