6. WES 2011 OS Image Building Blocks • Every image is built on the device using: • The Embedded Core • Feature packages (e.g. Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player) • Language Packages (e.g. EN-US) • Driver Packs (e.g. printers and display) • Embedded Enabling Features (e.g. FBWF) • OS updates • Third-party software and drivers • The building blocks are used to create an image interactively or non-interactively on the target device

7. Embedded Core • Collection of Functionality needed for • Booting • Kernel • Boot-critical drivers (except for SCSI adapters) • WinLogon, NetLogon • File system (NTFS, UDF) • Command shell • Servicing stack • Networking • RPC • Minimal platform for app and driver testing • Language Neutral

8. Feature Sets and Packages • Order of 60 feature sets • ~150 packages • Package is signed and serviceable by Microsoft • Configurable settings • Binaries and resources not tweakable • Removed resources may come back through servicing • Feature packages installable post-build

9. Feature Sets vs. Packages

10. Feature Sets and Packages Explorer Shell Feature Set • OS functionality area, e.g. • Windows Media Player • Internet Explorer • USB Boot • Feature set is composed of 1 or more packages Calculator, paint, gadgets etc. Themes, Visuals • Package is set of related functionality. Shell Accessories Shell Themes Explorer application Desktop support Shell Foundation Graphics (GDI) IO support Shell Basic

11. Embedded Feature Sets • Create Read-only and/or flash devices • Enhanced Write Filter • File Based Write Filter • Registry Filter • Custom shell support • No dependency on Explorer • Dialog filter and message box auto-reply • Unbranded startup screens • Boot from removable media • USB boot, VHD boot, SD boot

12. Demo Dialog Filter Windows Embedded Standard 2011 Embedded Enabling Feature

13. Drivers and Language Packs • Driver packages are created based on driver INF • Printer drivers packaged based on manufacturer • About 400 driver packages inbox • OS Building Blocks are Language-Neutral • Language packages consist of MUI and fonts • Target is to release ~40 languages and LIPS • Both Installable post-build

14. Package Dependencies

15. Dependency Types • Direct dependencies • Breaking a direct dependency chain is not supported • Example: Servicing dependency on Installers, because WUSA.exe has a dependency on MSI functionality • Optional Dependencies • Integration Scenarios and Extended Functionality • Example: Media Player has an optional dependency on IMAPI for enabling the Sync and Rip functionality in WMP • Group Dependency of Exactly One • Example: Choose exactly one of explorer shell, cmd shell or task manager shell as the shell for the image • Group Dependency of One or More • Example: Embedded Core depends on one or more languages • Group Dependency of None • Packages which cannot co-exist in the same image

20. Multimedia Architecture (Gaming) • Media Player requires both AV-Core and Media Support • AV-Core dependent on by other OS features

21. Drivers in Quebec Quebec Driver Packages Windows 7 • Driver packages are created based on driver information file • More granularity - about 400 individual driver packages total • Printer drivers are refactored to even smaller packages by manufacturer. • Driver packages are installable/serviceable via standard tools • Option to choose USB or USB-Boot driver package DRIVER PACKAGE 1 DRIVER PACKAGE 2 DRIVER PACKAGE n NON CORE INBOX DRIVERS Client Drivers Common Drivers Quebec Embedded CORE Printer Drivers CORE INBOX DRIVERS

22. OS Updates • OS updates are released by Microsoft. • Released to Embedded Communications Extranet and Microsoft OEM Online sites. • Updates are applicable at a package level, update will not install on the system if it is not needed. • Sample updates are provided on the Windows Embedded Standard 2011 CTP. • Located on the IBW Disks for both architectures.

23. Demo Importing Updates into your ICE DS.

24. OS Updates • Tools are provided to help determine the proper updates for your image. • Package Scanner • Embedded Tool that scans an image and determines that updates are applicable to the device. • Find Applicable Updates in ICE and IBW • Integrated Tool in ICE and IBW that will determine what updates are required based on the Answer File being created.

25. Demo Identifying Updates through ICE and Package Scanner

26. OS Updates • How to apply updates? • Windows Update • Windows Server Update Services • DISM Tool • Windows Update Standalone Installer • System Center Configuration Manager
