Windows 10: Windows 10 Recovery Tools - Bootable Rescue Disk

Oh, don't move them, just copy them!!! I had also tried installing a MBAM in the PE environment, maybe that's what worked? Give it a shot.

 

My mistake in typing.....I did copy them.....but their not their after checking......so now I got to figure out what I am doing wrong. Right now I am looking at the boot.wim file on my usb stick using 7zip.....from my windows 10. The ADD feature on 7zip says not available.....this is a beta version thou.

 

Try going into options and checking it-

 

As for copying, just right click what you want to copy choose copy, navigate to the folder you want(not inside just the folder name, like SysWOW64, and paste, done.

 

When I checked options in 7zip.....everything was already checked?? But still can't ADD anything to boot.wim

 

Oh well looks like I can't do this......maybe I should give up, don't want to drive you nuts Cliff... *Smile

 

I have never used the Add option anyhow*Smile, and about MBAM, if Kyhi wants to add that in he will, but his tool is created to repair Windows, and not as an offline anti malware anyhow. I was just trying to see if I could run certain "installed" programs from my Win10 installation in the PE environment, as I have a lot of tools, for me, that would also be useful. And I could*chuckle

 

Well after playing around with 7zip......I changed the View option to double pane, and then I could copy those 2 files into the boot.wim/ syswow64 folder So......then told 7zip to check the boot.wim file for errors and 7zip found no errors inside the boot.wim file. So those two files are now in the sysWoW64 folder.......don't know if Mbam will work.....but I did find a way to copy them. *sarc

I also did the same thing you tried, I ran a few programs from inside the recovery usb stick, like ccleaner, and it did run without any problems......Actually if he took OUT Acronis from the recovery program, then users would not have to disable secure boot!!! I see no reason to have acronis on the recovery usb, as it already has Macrium Reflect, and that's all you need.

 

Oh is that what you were trying to do, I just used Windows 10 Recovery Tools - Bootable Rescue Disk's file explorer. Don't forget also the two in system32...

 

Good for you Cliff, as I have no idea....on how you did it that way.....but my way...seemed to work.....the other folder already has them in their...*Smile
Now I need MORE coffee....and then I'll test it....

 

Well I can't run Malwarebytes, from my C-drive. Even after putting in the sfc.dll and sfc_os.dll files. Get an Exception error from Mbam.
But, I tried a few other programs from my C-drive and I could run SuperAntiSpyware from the USB stick. only difference was it ran a the free version, not registered. Also found out you can't add any programs like Chrome while on the recovery USB stick. When I tried it reported no Internet Connection. and I was on the internet. lol No big deal as I am just playing around with it right now.
Also.....seems to add a shortcut to the desktop, to any program I run from the startup menu....no idea why...

Just for information purposes I am running this flash drive with 32GB of memory, and the flash drive is a 3.0 16GB drive.

 

Kyhi built this WinPESE for his PC so he installed the driver for his Network Adapter and perhaps yours is different and that's why you have no internet connection.

Does not matter whether you use 1 GB or 16GB. His WinPE is only 7, 8 hundred MB. Everything is loaded into RAM and run from there, after the PC boot up, you could remove the stick and the PC still run.

 

I have succeeded in getting MBAM to run from within PE
Waiting for RTM release to do final testing before updating ISO's

PE has the Basic Audio, Display and Network Drivers included..

Win10 requires the use of PENetwork to make the network connection...

Not ALL needed drivers are included in Setup media - so one would have to Export the Host Drivers..

Use device manager to update driver from host PC into PE

Some drivers load without a reboot, others require a reboot and if that the case the drivers has to be added to boot.wim

My network drivers are by default are included in setup media - thus included in PE - same as other default drivers..

So PE is generic and nothing different required for my PC or any special considerations made for my use..

 

Ok that explains it a little more, because it shows 2 network adapters, one is not being used, the other is. Also I DO have an internet connection!! Can log on to any web page I want too. Just have to use the browser already installed on this recovery stick. *Smile
