Once ready with it all, click on Mount WIM to get started with the process.
Manage Drivers & Packages
Once done with mounting the image file, you can go ahead and easily add drivers and update packages to the image file. Navigate to the Driver Management tab on the top bar and choose the folder where drivers are stored and click on Add Drivers to get them added to the image file. Apart from this, you can also delete a specific driver or view all relevant information about the drivers installed.
The same goes for the packages. You can specify the Package folder and get it added or removed from the underlying mounted image file.
