The Windows Imaging Format is a file-based disk image format (as opposed to a sector-based one) used to preserve and distribute a complete copy of a set of files with all its MS-Windows filesystem structure and metadata. It is created with the ImageX command line tool, part of the free Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK).
