This is the latest NEW Windows 8.1 x86 U1 PE. This portable apps on this version can be updated when needed or you can also add any new apps you need to the USB stick. I like your new build. I have built several different PE and I noticed that the PENetwork in the 64 bit build is unable to be executed (same as mine), it does work in the 32 bit builds. Also the Recuva doesn’t execute, that happened to me also. You need to install the Vss in the components to have older programs work.
I also noticed that you installed Fake Disk from the components. Did that program do anything for programs? I am surprised that you didn’t put your picture on the Administrator log on? You have added a lot of nice features in the latest build. Gandalf, Many thanks for the time you’ve put into this project! We love and it works great with a bootable USB drive. However, we’re wanting to pull the boot.wim file and using WDS to boot the environment over the network.

This works using the x86 version; but not the x64 version. The message we get when booting to the wim: (this isn’t my thread; just screenshot that matches our issue.) Can you think of why this error would occur and would you happen to know of a work-around? We where also successfully able to boot the x64 version of without issue. Thanks again! I have multiple computers at home and I also experienced this problem on one of the four computers I have.
On the three computers, they are running Windows 8 whilst the one causing the winload problem was running Windows 7. I simply installed the Windows 8 bootloader replacing the Windows 7 bootloader and it simply works after. However, in your environment, I guess this wouldn’t work as you would have multiple machines.
And I’m not that technically inclined within enterprise networks – so don’t ask me:P. Hi gandalf50 – your latest winpe is really sophisticated, thank you so much.
What i nevertheless miss is access to my sdcard. I’ve tried to install my drivers (oem), additionally others from the win-filerepository – no luck. (only as info: i built a rescue stick using macrium reflect using an own-built winpex86-boot wim, and added a selection of appropriate drivers. Booting macrium – success sdcard – shutdown macrium – winpe appeared (!?): sdcard included!) acer aspire switch 10, cpu intel atom z3745, win 8.1×86, 2 gb ram.
I’am very lucky to find your incredible Boot-ISO with UEFI-32 support. Although I have several Multi-Boot-Keys with various WinPE (some I made myself) I was unable to boot my now ASUS F205TA with Win8.1 32-Bit because my Bios has NO(!) CMS-Option to boot my Boot-Keys which use either Grub or Isolinux as bootloader.
With your excelent “Windows 8.1 X86 U1 PE with Updateable USB Portable Apps” I got now managed to boot up in UEFI-32-Bit-Mode. However I stll can not do what I need: 1. Resize OS-Partition Drive C: in order to gain about 5Gb free space out of about 9GB free spacce in total 2. The keyboard is locked fully even in CMD-Window The reason I think is: My ASUS F205TA is encrypted with BitLocker. I searched the internet to get a solution but unsucessfully yet. Any help possible?? Thanks in advance.
