\fB--compact\fR=\fIFORMAT\fR
-EXPERIMENTAL, Windows-only: compress the extracted files using System

-on an older Windows to which Microsoft's wofadk.sys driver has been added.
-Several different compression formats may be used with System Compression, and
-one must be specified as \fIFORMAT\fR. The choices are: xpress4k, xpress8k,
-xpress16k, and lzx.

Exclusions are handled in the same way as with the \fB--wimboot\fR option.
That is: if it exists, the [PrepopulateList] section of the file
\\Windows\\System32\\WimBootCompress.ini in the WIM image will be read, and
files matching any of the patterns in this section will not be compressed.
+In addition, wimlib has a hardcoded list of files for which it knows, for
+compatibility with the Windows bootloader, to override the requested compression
+format.
