DISM versions...

Hi! Is it possible to get standard dism.exe from Windows 10 running in Windows 7? That’s very interesting and thanks for any possible help here!

I've not tested this, i can try ...
Don't forget to verify the environment variable on windows 7 sp1 before you use gui for dism (for use the good version of dism.exe).

Thanks and regards.

Hello, Dede333!
Thanks a lot for the given link! You see, I need some another thing. I want to understand - is it possible to use the DISM from the standard installation iso-file for Windows 8.1 working in Windows 7. I sit in my 7, mount 8.1 and want to use its DISM!

Hello,
dism version embendding for a Windows, depends to it (environment and library (DLL)).
So, if you use dism for Win 8.1 on Win 7, it's possible to have troubles with it.

The best pratices is to use ADK / Winpe (standalone version) for resolved dependances.

Notice: ADK / Winpe have retrocompatibility to manipulate old version of windows (if supported OS),
you have to use the good version, but somes features are not included.

Dism-Gui interface use dism version embendding of the environment, so modification for
Dism-Gui is required for use the good version of dism ! (todo why not ....).

Thanks and regards.
