Microsoft Windows System Image Manager

Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM) quickly generates and manages unattended Windows Setup answer files in a graphical user interface (GUI). Answer files are XML-based files that are utilized during Windows Setup to configure and to modify the default Windows installation. Windows SIM uses the content of CLG files to give details in the data saved in an image file having a WIM extension. It validates the settings of an existing answer file against a Windows image (.wim) file, and views all the configurable component settings in such file. It can update an existing answer file easily and creates a configuration set that contains a complete set of portable folders with setup files; and adds third-party drivers, applications, or other packages to an answer file. Those details are the components and packages in the image file and such data is referred by Windows SIM to show the information even if with no access to the actual data stored image. CLG files are packed in the Microsoft Windows installation disks.
