- If you want to specify an alternative source file, in the Alternate source file path
box, specify a fully qualified path of a shared folder that contains
the contents of the \sources\sxs folder from the installation media. Or,
specify a WIM file. To specify a WIM file as an alternative source file
location, add the prefix WIM: to the
path, and then add the index of the image that you want to use in the
WIM file as a suffix. The following are examples of values that you can
specify:
- Path of a shared folder: \\server_name\share\Win8sxs
- Path of a WIM file, in which 3 represents the index of the image in which the feature files are found: WIM: \\server_name\share\install.wim:3
