3. Wim File Converter

1. The tool lets you convert files between ESD and WIM with ease. After going through our how to convert install.esd file to WIM guide, many users asked us to publish a guide to convert ESD file to ISO but the lack of an easy-to-use and straight-forward software forced us to wait for the release of an easy-to-use software for the job.
2. ESD images are smaller, so that means we want it. For that reason there is an option to compress WIM images to ESD. You can compress to ESD from multiple locations as well. Either the same Convert or Export options, or you can use the convenient Apply page toolbar automation section and check ESD Compression option.

The install.wim has given way to an ESD file (install.esd), an Electronic Software Download (ESD). The compression rate of the ESD files is even higher than the compression rate of WIM files using the /compress:max switch. ESD files however, resists some operations like deployment using a WDS server.

Microsoft's latest operating systems ship in with an esd file (sourcesinstall.esd) which replaces wim (same directory) in older operating systems (Windows 7 and below).

For people who use Windows Deployment Server (WDS), esd are not friendly (don't know why microsoft doesn't add the functionality) when it come to deployment of the OS across the network. The following command prompts can convert the esd to wim thus allowing the deployment across the network for newer OS (Windows 8 +)

3 Steps total

Step 1: Copy ESD file from source to different folder

Get details about what images are inside the ESD file with the command. We'll need to take note of the index No. that we need;

dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:install.esd

Step 2: Export the ESD to WIM

Take note of the index of the particular OS version you'd like to install (in case the esd has many images therein) the number is what is inserted in the SourceIndex. Am choosing index 1 (Windows 7 Home Premium)

dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity

Step 3: WIM

After the progress reaches 100% and integrity checks are through, you'll have a WIM file alongside the ESD file

The WIM file can be copied back to the sources folder and used in WDS. In the case of multi images in a single ESD, step 2 should be repeated with the change in the SourceIndex No. only. This will append the index files to the same WIM file.

It should be noted that ESD are highly compressed, and when converted to WIM, the WIM might be slightly bigger.

  This just saved me some major time. I wasn't using it for WDS but for fixing corrupt DLLs that sfc/scannow could not fix in Windows 10. Thanks a lot.

  I can't get this to work, i have it in the same location but always get access denied. i tried giving full control to everyone but that didnt work either. Any ideas? Maybe my path is wrong, this is it
  C:New folderdeploy>dism /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:install.esd

  Justin, you need to open up the command prompt as an administrator. It's the dism command that's restricted, not the files you are trying to modify.

  I had the same problem as Justin.
  I found that running Win7 as the host computer and using dism commands on a Win10.iso Install.esd file does not allow for the Get-WimInfo to execute properly.
  After loading a Win10 VM I used the Command 'pushd' Hostnamedeploy
  And then ran the dism /get-wiminfo /wimfile:install.esd

  Received all of the Wim's in the ESD without issue.
  Exporting the Win10Pro to a .wim now.

  I am trying to convert an esd file to wim format but am struggling with the detail of the command prompt line in the above guidance which is:-

  dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:install.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity

  My esd file is in C:UsersJohnDocumentsESD and the destination folder is C:UsersJohnDocumentsWimFolder.
  I have established that my version of Windows 10 Pro in the esd file is index1.
  Would RWKSHJ be kind enough to spell out the details of the dism command that I need to be able to export and convert the esd file?
  Thanks

  JOHNSPILLER, what feedback are you getting when you run the above command?

  Also, if your current operating system is Windows 7, please refer to SILLDRAYGG's comment above.

  RWKSHJ, thanks for your reply - my present system is windows 10 Pro V 1511
  The command I used is dism /export-image /SourceImageFile:C:UsersJohnDocumentsESDinstall.esd /SourceIndex:1 /DestinationImageFile:C:UsersJohnDocumentsWimFolder:install.wim /Compress:max /CheckIntegrity

  The error I get is Error 123. The Filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect

  @ Tim_G
  Same here. The first hit in Google I think. I started to install it but looked to be bundled with garbage.

  @RWKSHJ
  Is it OK to delete the esd file after the WIM is copied over? I don't really see a need for both files

  It works like a champ in Windows 1703, make sure you are in the same folder as your esd file when you do this process.

• Jalapeno
  RWKSHJ Aug 10, 2017 at 05:20am

  @Ozzi6752 yes you can, only after using the WIM and iit has no faults. but for backup purposes, you can keep it around.

  Have tried this with an ISO created with Media Creation Tool. Am able to see there's 1 index in the ESD, but the attempt to extract gives error 11 - An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. DISM log shows:

Electronic Software Download (ESD) file is a file downloaded from Microsoft download application. This file format is usually used by Microsoft for sending upgrades to its Operating System and other software. ESD is encrypted and should be decrypted before we can see its contents. There are a few tools for decrypting ESD file and converting the ESD file to ISO easily.

Converter Esd Para Wim Mac

There is a very popular command-line ESD Decrypter utility for converting ESD to ISO but we will not talk about that utility. Instead, we will discuss about graphically converting ESD to ISO which is easier and safer than the command-line.

Quick Summary

• 1 Using Dism++ for converting ESD to ISO

Using Dism++ for converting ESD to ISO

Dism++ is a wonderful tool which gives a graphical user interface to Windows dism utility. Dism is a powerful command-line tool from Microsoft for different Windows operations like adding/removing Windows components, compacting the Operating System, installing/uninstalling Windows updates, backup and restore Windows system etc.

While Dism does it command-line, Dism++ uses a graphical user interface to perform the same tasks. In addition to other useful tasks, Dism++ can also convert ESD files to ISO format. The process is as simple as selecting source ESD file and destination ISO file name. Let’s go through the process in details. To convert EST to ISO, do the following:

1. Download Dism++ from here:
   

   Dism++ (3.5 MiB, 7,701 hits)

2. Unzip and run Dism++x64.exe or Dism++x86.exe depending upon your Windows installation.
3. Agree to the terms and conditions
   
4. Go to File menu and select ESD –>ISO
   
5. Give the file path of source file which should be ESD.
6. Give destination path of source which should end in .ISO.
   
7. Clicking the Finish button or Alt + F keyboard shortcut will start the conversion process.

The conversion process may take some time to complete. After the completion, you will get your desired ISO file on the path you selected in step 6.

Hopefully this will save you from command-line complex operations for converting ESD to ISO. If you encounter any difficulty during the conversion process, please let us know in the comments below and we’ll try to fix things together.
