GImageX (ImageX GUI) version 2.0.1 Beta
You may remember that back in the early days of my blog, I posted a tool that myself and fellow MCS consultant Jon Bennett (also of AutoIT fame) had worked on called GImageX. This tool was a Graphical User Interface for the Microsoft ImageX command line tool.
Well - Jon has spent some long lonely evenings in hotel rooms during recent engagements and has completely re-written GImageX (now v2.0.1 BETA)
This new version includes:
- Native x86 and x64 versions entirely written in C++. Tiny ~100KB executable.
- Doesn’t use the imagex.exe utility at all – instead it uses the WIMGAPI interface (the wimgapi.dll file from the imagex directory)
- Progress bars, time elapsed, time remaining, file counts have been added
- Clean “abort” option
- Ability to mount, change and get info on WIM images
This tool is unsupported by Microsoft and used at your own risk - however, myself an Jon would really appreciate your comments and feedback via the "comments" section on this blog

Hi. I just downloaded GImageX 2.0.14. It seems very nice (I haven't used it). The COM dll is a GREAT addition for sure, but something is lacking here: Progress indicator. This is the one functionality I am looking for. Everything else can be done via the original ImageX.exe application. If you are using the API directly, most likely you can report progress via events? If you ever get around adding progress indication of a capture or apply operation, let us all know!
In any case, thanks for the good work.
