Windows 10 ADK Boot image updates for Configuration Manager

Windows 10 ADK Boot image updates for Configuration Manager

Create boot images utilizing DISM:

Adjust paths below for your environment and run the below commands from the “Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment” shortcut otherwise you will be launching the locally installed dism and you will receive a provisioning error.

Create x86 Windows 10 ADK Boot Image:

  • mkdir D:\WINPEx86\Mount

  • Copy “D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\en-us\winpe.wim” D:\WINPEx86\boot.wim

  • dism.exe /mount-wim /wimfile:D:\WINPEx86\boot.wim /index:1 /mountdir:D:\WINPEx86\mount

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx86\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\WinPE_OCs\winpe-wmi.cab”

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx86\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\WinPE_OCs\winpe-scripting.cab”

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx86\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\x86\WinPE_OCs\winpe-wds-tools.cab”

  • dism.exe /unmount-wim /mountdir:D:\WINPEx86\mount /commit

Create x64 Windows 10 ADK Boot Image:

  • mkdir D:\WINPEx64\Mount

  • Copy “D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\amd64\en-us\winpe.wim” D:\WINPEx64\boot.wim

  • dism.exe /mount-wim /wimfile:D:\WINPEx64\boot.wim /index:1 /mountdir:D:\WINPEx64\mount

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx64\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\amd64\WinPE_OCs\winpe-wmi.cab”

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx64\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\amd64\WinPE_OCs\winpe-scripting.cab”

  • dism.exe /image:D:\WINPEx64\mount /add-package /packagepath:”D:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Assessment and Deployment Kit\Windows Preinstallation Environment\amd64\WinPE_OCs\winpe-wds-tools.cab”

  • dism.exe /unmount-wim /mountdir:D:\WINPEx64\mount /commit

  • After you have ran the above commands you can simply import the boot.wim files into Configuration Manager and call it a day.  You should have two boot images with version 10.0.10240.16384.

NOTE: After you update the ADK on your site server to Windows 10 ADK you will not be able to edit older boot images in console you will have to manually edit them outside with dism if still needed.
