Create Reset Recovery Image in Windows 10  

Hi Shawn - I put the install.wim file into the new ResetRecoveryImage folder on an external drive as I believe was the case with Fisher Mann in post #66 above. I just wanted to verify - is using an external drive is acceptable?

Thank you for your tutorials!

Hi @Brink

Thank you for the fantastic tutorial, if you don't mind i have question about the /index option which specifies the index number of the recovery image to use from within a .wim file. You have used index number 1 but as you know install.wim image file may contain several different Windows 10 Edition e.g. Pro, Home, etc.. As you know we use following Dism command to found out the index number of Windows edition we want to use with Dism command, so how come you only use index number 1 what if there is more than one edition of Windows 10?

Code:

dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:X:\sources\install.wim

Cool, thank you for your reply!

There is no file called install.wim in my Windows 10 iso file however there is a file called install.esd so what now ?.

I have followed all of the steps and it sets the everything up correctly but it does not seem to be enabled still.

When I do reagentc /enable then I get
REAGENTC.EXE: The Windows RE image was not found.
