NAME

6       wiminfo - Display or change information about a WIM file or image
7

SYNOPSIS

9       wiminfo WIMFILE [IMAGE [NEW_NAME [NEW_DESC]]] [OPTION...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       wiminfo, or equivalently wimlib-imagex info, displays information about
13       WIMFILE or the specified IMAGE in it, and optionally changes properties
14       of  IMAGE such as its name and description, or changes the bootable im‐
15       age of the WIM.
16
17       If neither an image nor any flags other  than  --check  are  specified,
18       then  basic information about the WIM and the images contained in it is
19       shown.  If an image is specified by IMAGE (as a 1-based image index  or
20       an  image  name), then the information is restricted to that concerning
21       the specified image.
22
23       Changes to the WIM are made if NEW_NAME and/or --boot  and/or  --image-
24       property  are  specified.   NEW_NAME is taken to be the new name of the
25       image specified by IMAGE while NEW_DESC is taken to be its new descrip‐
26       tion.   If  NEW_DESC  is not specified, then the image's description is
27       not changed.
28
29       wiminfo does not support modifying a split WIM, although you  may  dis‐
30       play information about one, including any of its parts.
31

OPTIONS

33       --boot
34             Mark the specified IMAGE as the "bootable" image of the WIM.  The
35             "bootable" image is the image which the Windows  bootloader  will
36             use when loading Windows PE from the WIM.
37
38       --check
39             Verify the integrity of WIM if it contains extra integrity infor‐
40             mation.  In addition, if modifying the WIM, add  extra  integrity
41             information if it was not present before.
42
43       --nocheck
44             If  modifying the WIM, remove its extra integrity information, if
45             it had any.
46
47       --include-integrity
48             If modifying the WIM, add extra integrity information if  it  was
49             not present before, i.e. like --check but don't also do the veri‐
50             fication beforehand.
51
52       --image-property NAME=VALUE
53             Assign an arbitrary property to the specified IMAGE  in  the  XML
54             document  of  the  WIM.   NAME  is  an element path such as "WIN‐
55             DOWS/VERSION/MAJOR", and VALUE is the string to place in the ele‐
56             ment,  such  as  "10".   See the documentation for this option to
57             wimcapture(1) for more details.  This  option  may  be  specified
58             multiple times.
59
60       --header
61             Show detailed information from the WIM header.
62
63       --blobs
64             List all the "blobs" (unique file data) in the WIM.
65
66       --extract-xml=FILE
67             Extract the WIM's raw XML document to FILE.
68
69       --xml
70             Extract the WIM's raw XML document to standard output.
