Installing Device Metadata Packages to an Offline Windows Image |
Installing Device Metadata Packages to an Offline Windows Image |
04/20/2017 |
Computer OEMs can add device metadata packages to an offline image of Windows by copying the packages to the local device metadata store. This store is in the following location:
%PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataStore\<locale>
You must first create the <locale> subdirectory based on the target locale of the device metadata package. Then you must copy the metadata package to the appropriate <locale> subdirectory.
For example, a device metadata package that is localized for the English language of Great Britain must be copied to the following location:
%PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataStore\EN-GB
A device metadata package that is localized for the Japanese language must be copied to the following location:
%PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataStore\JA
For more information, see Device Metadata Store.
