Some of the CAB files have a descriptive name that you may understand what feature-pack or driver they contain, but most names are more cryptic. Using 7-zip and the original WES7 ISO, you can extract only the CAB files that you want to add to the currently running WES7 OS (the live image).Īll the Feature Packs and Drivers are located under DSpackages inside the WES7 ISO. You don't need to re-build the WES7 image from scratch.
That is a bit frustrating, as usually it means that you'd need to start from scratch, and manually inspect each Feature Pack and Driver that you forgot to add in the first build. Let's say you've installed Windows Embedded Standard 7 with SP1 (from here on: WES7), and added only the Feature Packs and Drivers that you thought were enough.Īfter installation, when you start configuring WES7, and adding applications - you suddenly realize that some things don't work or are entirely missing!
