New Macrium Reflect Updates [2]

Anyone know how to increase the fonts on the MR usb stick?? With this latest release, when I made the new rescue usb, the dam fonts are now real tiny....and I can't find a way to increase there size. This has never happened before with any previous version ...

Geeks, that is as it should be. No issues there.

A WIM image can be mounted to a specific folder for offline servicing with DISM command. That's what Reflect does when creating rescue image. When offline servicing (editing WIM) is done, changes / edits can be committed (saved), or discarded. In both cases, DISM empties the mount folder when it is done. Mount folder will always be empty after DISM /COMMIT or DISM /DISCARD.

The same if you mount a Windows install.wim for offline servicing, for instance when applying an answer file to your Windows install media to bypass and automate OOBE: Apply unattended answer file to Windows 10 install media

Short: mount folder should always be empty, after changes in WIM file have been committed (or discarded).

When you have booted into the USB go to Other Tasks->Screen Resolution and select a lower resolution if there is one.

I'll take a look right now Keith...

Well that's why ....its using 2560x1440 for Screen Resolution and I only use 1920x1080 on the desktop ....and it gives me no other choices when on the USB stick.

It's empty on mine too, but pescreenshots.exe exists inside C:\boot\macrium\WinREFiles\media\sources\boot.wim, presumably it was temporarily held in the ..\mount\... folder while building the rescue media. Having extracted it from my boot.wim and submitted it to VirusTotal, apparently 13 out of 69 vendors give a false positive, including BitDefender and GData.

VirusTotal

Well someone fixed it. I'm assuming Bitdefender did.

pescreenshot.exe now passes a scan by Bitdefender (locally)... and here is the virustotal scan this morning for pescreenshot.exe

VirusTotal



Most importantly, during the creation of the Rescue Media ISO, Bitdefender did not throw up a "disinfection in progress" warning, and the created ISO (after burning to a CD) now boots properly.

I agree it is no issue. My post was not to imply I thought I was missing something, it was to show absence was normal.

I understand that. I just wanted to explain how mount (and mount folder) works.
