ID, the renamed image file path or the moved image file path.

In Windows PE, the default directory is the RAMDISK scratch space which can be as low as 32 MB. The log file will automatically be archived.

The archived log file will be saved with .bak appended to the file name and a new log file will be generated. Each time the log file is

archived the .bak file will be overwritten.

before you set the log path for the DISM log.

specified, the \\Windows\\%Temp% directory will be used, with a subdirectory name of a randomly generated hexadecimal value for each run of

DISM. Items in the scratch directory are deleted after each operation.

You should not use a network share location as a scratch directory to expand a package (.cab or .msu file) for installation. The directory

used for extracting files for temporary usage during servicing should be a local directory.
