Feature request : Windows ?

[asmodehn]

Nowadays Microsoft provides ISO files https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/software-download/windows10ISO and these can come in very handy if you happen to loose your EFI boot partition, or somehow make your current windows installation unbootable...

By booting on these ISO you can use Microsoft tools to troubleshoot and fix your computer.

Note : Windows 10 isos are > 4Gb. which filesystem to pick ?

https://github.com/ventoy uses exFat. I think it's a right choice.

This certainly would be useful, but it seems like it would be very difficult to implement.

Pull Request welcome, but I really doubt this is something possible with vanilla grub2.

There is wimboot:
https://github.com/ipxe/wimboot

https://github.com/a1ive/wimboot (unmaintained port of wimboot to a fork of grub2 that is also no longer maintained)
Here is the discussion: a1ive/grub#2 (comment)

I have been trying to get it to work in iPXE using the file:/ URL function but it isn't finding wimboot or the other files. It's very limited (can't ls etc). Some people on the reboot.pro forum have had some success but I haven't got it working myself:

update: OK I have finally got it working. I can now boot to Hirens boot cd in GLIM!
