Such files can exist as a result of the use of + certain Windows features, such as offline storage, including "OneDrive". + wimlib will now store and restore both streams on Windows as well as in + NTFS-3g mode. Microsoft's WIMGAPI also has this behavior. + + On Windows, named data streams of encrypted files are no longer stored + twice in WIM archives. + + On Windows, named data streams are now correctly extracted to existing + "readonly" directories. Before, an error would be reported. + + On Windows, when doing an extraction in "WIMBoot mode", files larger + than 4 gigabytes are now never extracted as externally backed. This + works around a bug in Microsoft's "WOF" driver. + + The '--enable-verify-compression' configure option has been removed. If + you want to verify a WIM file, use the 'wimverify' program. + +Version 1.8.0: Improved the LZX compressor. It is now 15-20% faster than before and provides a slightly better compression ratio.
