Image For Windows

It happened to me about six years ago. Weird. Reactivated after I sent an email.

 

Me too.

 

From the customer response it seems that the download limit gets reset every week or once a week (they told me to not download for a week).

 

I am trying to make a TBWinPE UFD using MakeDisk, but I keep getting the format failed message.
I can format the UFD using Windows, Rufus, Diskpart and Fat32 Format, but I still keep the getting the error message with MakeDisk.

I can't find any info on the TeraByte Unlimited site.


Edit: Never mind. I just created ISOs, then used Rufus to create UFDs.

 

Is there some trick to get Image for Windows to display your Scheduled Tasks?
In the past, I have created schedules directly from IFW, but they eventually disappear from the Scheduled Tasks tab, although everything continues to work.
Also, if you create a new backup task directly from Task Scheduler, it obviously won't display.

 

That's how I do it.

Edit... I just set up a schedule in IFW. I'll let you know what happens.

 

OK, Brian.

 

Hadron, the task is still present in IFW.

 

Did you schedule it from within IFW?

 

Yes.

 

Regarding this article about manually updating your boot media.
It shows hot to manually copy the files from the ISO folder to your existing bootable UFD or ISO for Windows RE, but how can that same process be used for Windows PE?

The article heading implies that you can do both.

 

Yes, it works for both. I use that method for my RE and PE partitions on my SSD. Just copy the contents of the ISO folder.

Code:

sub main()
 ext("open fs 0: 0 0x0E")
 ext("RD 0:\ /s /y")
 ext("dir 0:\")
 printl(" ")
 ext("copy D:\TBWinRE_files\333pe\ISO\* 0:\ /s /y")
 ext("set vol TBWinPE333 0:")
 printl(" ")
 ext("dir 0:\")
 printl(" ")
 ext("close fs 0:")
end sub

 

So, just copying the contents of the ISO folder works for both Pre-existing Windows RE and PE images or UFDs?
But, they obviously turn out to be the same size doing it that way, but if I make them again from scratch, there is a big file size difference.


PS: What's the script for?

 

If the bootable media doesn't work for new versions of IFW, does it work the other way? That is, does new bootable media work for older images?

 

Sure, it's backwards compatible. Ver 3.33 will restore a 3.01 image.

 

It's for copying ISO folder files to a SSD partition. I run IFL from the SSD. No external media needed.

My RE ISO folder is 437 MB. My PE ISO folder is 305 MB.
RE has always been larger.

 

OK.
Thanks, Brian. I thought so, but I just thought I'd check.

 

But if you are copying from the same ISO folder, then it has to be the same size.

 

I see what you mean. No, I have two separate "installs". One for RE and one for PE. I copy C:\Program Files (x86)\TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite\tbwinre (the tbwinre folder) to two different sites in my D:\ drive and rename them to RE and PE.

 

I think that tutorial needs updating. I have read it a number of times, but I think there is something with it.

 

I double click tbwinpe.exe and go from there.

 

hi @Brian K
is easy and safe to exapand the windows 10 partition (no uefi) with image for linux (partition work)?
thanks

 

mantra,

Sure, no problem.

 

@Brian K Windows Disk Management does let me only to reduce and not increase windows 10 partition
and ifw partion too , it doesn't let me to increase w10 space, why?
i have
system reserved -> 500mb
w10 237104 -> mb
mbr2 868 -> mb windows re
----- 715395 free space unallocated space

thanks

 

mantra,

To enlarge (expand) the Win10 partition you need Free Space immediately after the Win10 partition. Your Free Space is after the 868 MB partition. This applies to all partitioning software. I assume you found IFL Partition Work couldn't expand Win10 either.

So in Partition Work, Slide the 868 MB partition to the end of the drive, which will give you 715395 MB of Free Space after the Win10 partition. Now you can expand the Win10 partition.

Edit ... You can either Slide the 868 MB partition to the end of the drive or create an amount of Free Space after the Win10 partition to your liking. eg Slide it 50000 MB.
