Dart 10
Update 8.22.2016 – Update for 1607 Media (Build 14393), found that using the 1511 DaRT didn’t play so nice on a 1607 install of Windows 10.
Fix, Create new DaRT WIM with latest ADK.
I was wondering where and how do I get DaRT. Hey there, Guest! Voting is now open on new trophies to add to the forum, so swing by and cast your vote in the New Community Trophy Contest Poll here!
Changes to Made for 1607
- Uninstall old ADK, Install new ADK
- Run the DaRT Recovery Image creator to create new WIM using new ADK
- NO Longer need to run the HotFix!
- Change WinRE partition size from 900 to 1100 – Found 900 would cause issues from time to time.
- Updated Script to include F4 Support & add Timeout to help with DiskPart sporadic issues. (Download HERE)
- Thanks to Alex Nicastro for the Assist on that.
- Basically, just follow the instructions below using the updated ADK, skip the HotFix, and name your package accordingly.
Requirements:
- Windows 10 ADK (Build 10586) – Download HERE
- Windows 10 ADK Hotfix to fix issue in ADK– Download HERE (We’ll get to this later)
- DaRT Recovery Image Installed –> Part of MDOP
- Windows 10 Media (Build 10586) Mounted
Setup:
ADK 10
DaRT
Launch the MS DaRT Recovery Image Wizard – If you see this error, it’s because of your Powershell group policy, to get around this, open elevated command prompt and do this:
Reg delete HKLMSOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsPowershell /v ExecutionPolicy /f
– Now try again
Choose 64-bit Dart Image – I’ve mounted the Windows 10 ISO to the D: drive
You can leave the tools to default
Check the box “Allow…” and let it default to 3388
Advanced Options, add any Storage & NIC drivers you’ll need & any WinPE addons
Create Image: Select Create WIM, set the path to c:cabs
- Note, if you want, at this step, you can check the box “Edit image” and then after it a short period, you’ll get the opportunity to add files. I did this to add cmtrace and some other tools into the image
Now wait for a few minutes while it is generated
Adding HotFix to boot.wim (Only if you’re using Windows 10 1511 build 10586)
Extract the HotFix to c:Cabs (I’m using 7zip)
It will create 2 schema files.
Also create the folder mount (C:CabsMount)
Make sure your boot.wim file is save to C:CabsDaRT10x64boot.wim, you’ll then need to run these commands: ( original documentation here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3143760), this is modified based on where I’ve saved the files in my example.
Run from elevated “Deployment and Imaging Tools Environment”
- dism /mount-wim /wimfile:C:CabsDaRT10x64boot.wim /index:1 /mountdir:C:Cabsmount
- icacls C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32schema.dat /save '%temp%AclFile'
- takeown /F C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32schema.dat /A
- icacls C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32schema.dat /grant BUILTINAdministrators:(F)
- xcopy 'C:Cabsschema-x64.dat' C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32schema.dat /Y
- icacls C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32schema.dat /setowner 'NT SERVICETrustedInstaller'
- icacls C:CabsmountWindowsSystem32 /restore '%temp%AclFile'
- dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:C:Cabsmount /Commit
As you can see, Before:
After:
Ok, now we have our boot.wim file, it’s time to get it into the OSD process.
In the Standard ConfigMgr MDT Task Sequence, go to the Format and Partition Disk (UEFI)
Change the Windows RE Tools name to WinRE and change the size from 300 to 900 1100
Create a Package with your boot.wim file and three batch files: (Download here)
SetDriveLetterLabel.cmd (This will take the Partition Labeled WinRE and assign letter R)

InstallDartUEFI.cmd (This deletes the old Windows Recovery WIM, creates the new folder structure and copies the boot.wim into place and assigns it as the recovery wim – It calls the script above to remove the drive letter when it’s done.)
Update 7/22/16 - Added 2 lines in RED, I was finding that on some systems, it wasn't copying my custom WIM over because there wasn't enough room on the Partition because of the Default WIM. Add line to Delete the Default before coping the Custom one over. - I have not updated the scripts in the ZIP File yet. Still doing more testing, as I'm having issues getting this working properly on HyperV, but so far all of my Physical Machines are working properly.
Update 8/22/16 – Added Line for F4 & Timeout
--------
REM SetDriveLetterLabel.cmd - Now doing in Previous Step, sets WinRE partition to Letter R

Package Contents:
In the TS:
In the State Restore Group, add two Steps
- Install WinRE – Dart10 – UEFI – Step1 (cmd /c SetDriveLetterLabel.cmd)
- Install WinRE – Dart10 – UEFI – Step2 (cmd /c InstallDartUEFI.cmd)
After OSD, you can go into your recovery options. and choose Advanced Startup - Once at the Option Screen, pick Troubleshoot –> Advanced –> Command Prompt
It will now reboot into the Windows Recovery Partition.
You’ll see a prompt for “Would you like to initialize network connectivity.”, click yes
It will now prompt you for your bitlocker Key, if bitlocker is enabled. Enter it and click continue
The Command Prompt will Open, just go ahead and close it.
You will now see options, choose Troubleshoot –> Microsoft Diagnostics and Recovery Toolset will be an option.
Now that you launched DaRT, you’ll have several options available to you, including Remote Connection, which is what I’m using to connect in to grab the screen capture.
Several hand tools built in like LockSmith, to recover Admin Passwords. This is handy if you have LAPS implemented, and the machine is deleted from the domain so you no longer have access to the Admin password.
File Restore in action:
And if you like, you can even add a web browser to your Image, because hey, why not! Pale Moon 64bit seems to work alright. Just Extract the Program to a folder and copy that folder into your image. Then use Explorer to browse to it.
So there you have it, integrating DaRT 10 into your Windows 10 10586 Deployments
I’ve tested this on Dell Latitude E6540, Precision 7510 & MS Surface Pro. I’ve done this in the Past with DaRT 8 on an entire range of Dell devices without any issues. But I’ve only started to implement this with DaRT10.
Contents:. What We Need To use DaRT 10 Boot Media Wizard that allows to create a DaRT image (ERD Commander) boot/repair disk, you will have to install a number of Microsoft packages for image management, development and deployment:. Windows Assessment and Development Kit for Windows 10 contains a number of development utilities as well as some tools to manage Windows images. It also contains Windows PE (Windows Preinstallation Environment) necessary to boot the system.
Windows 10 Debugging Tools are required to analyze dumps using Crash Analyzer in DaRT 10 environment. Debugging Tools are the part of, which you can download and install only Debugging Tools for Windows component. NET Framework 5.1 (installed by default on Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10). To create DART 10 image you shiuld use Windows 2012 R2 / 2016 or Windows 8.1 / 10.
DaRT10 is a part of MDOP 2015 (Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack 2015) that is not freely available. You can download it only if you are a corporate subscriber ( Microsoft Software Assurance). Windows 10 x64 distribution as an ISO image or on a DVD Installation of Windows ADK 10, WinDbg After you have downloaded all necessary tools, you can install them. First of all, install Windows ADK. Run Adksetup.exe. Specify C: Program Files (x86) Windows Kits 10 as an installation directory.
Select only 2 items from the list of the components to be installed:. Deployment Tools. Windows Preinstallation Environment (Windows PE) Continue the installation. The installer must download all the necessary components from the Internet and install them. Then run Software Development Kit for Windows 10 installer (but first of all install the — Update for Universal C Runtime in Windows). We need only Debugging Tools for Windows out of the SDK components.
DaRT Installation We need the ISO image of Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack 2015 ( SWDVD5DsktpOptimizationPckSA2015MultiLangMLFX20-35801.iso) available to download only within Software Assurance program. Mount the MDOP image to the virtual drive and go to DaRT directory. As you can see, there are several DaRT versions for different Windows versions.
DaRT 7 – WinPE 3. DaRT 8 SP1 – WinPE 4. DaRT 8.1– WinPE 5. DaRT 10 – WinPE 10. Since we are going to create a bootable disk for Windows 10 x64, go to F: DaRT DaRT 10 Installers en-us x64. Run the installation file msdart100.msi with the default settings. Creating DaRT 10 Recovery Disk The DaRT wizard allows to create both x86 and x64 images.
DaRT 10 boot disk can be used to boot Windows 10, Windows 8 and Windows 7. Run the application to create DaRT Recovery Image. Specify that you need a 64-bit DaRT image and select the path to the virtual drive with Windows 10 x64 distribution. Check the tools to be included in DaRT 10 image.
If you want to connect to a computer booted in DaRT remotely, check “Allow remote connections”. You can set the fixed connection port, or it has to be specified directly on the client. In the next step, you can add some drivers to the DaRT image (for network adapters, as a rule) and specify which WinPE components will be integrated into the image.
Now you just have to specify the directory to save the DaRT ISO image to (optionally, you can save it a WIM file and a PoSh script used to create the image with the specific settings to be used later). To generate the image, click Create. If it is OK, in some minutes the ISO file with the DaRT boot image for Windows 10 will appear in the directory you have specified. In my case, the creation of the image in Windows Server terminated with the following error: Generating DaRT image Installing and configuring DaRT tools The running command stopped because the preference variable “ErrorActionPreference” or common parameter is set to Stop: The request is not supported. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070032) Cleaning up temporary files Temporary folder: C: Users root AppData Local Temp DaRTMount2017.12.16.17.58.36 The clean-up has successfully been completed. After making some experiments, I found out that the image would be created successfully without File Restore and Disk Commander tools. If any of these tools were present, the process would abort.
It was very strange At the same time, Windows 10 image was created on a workstation without any errors. How to Use DaRT This DaRT image can be written to a CD/DVD disk or a USB flash drive and used to boot user computers after system failures.
The set of tools in DaRT allows to diagnose and repair the most common problems (reset the administrator password, delete a secutiry update resulting in a failure, recover the registry, check system files, connect to DaRT environment remotely, etc.). You can also integrate MS DaRT in Windows at all workstations by replacing winre.wim file of Windows Recovery Environment on the.
