Wim file creation utility

[Pepperm]

Sorry to ask this, because I'm sure that it has been asked before, I just can't find the answer anywhere...

I have utilities that create and edit mdv and made files but is there anything that can help with WIN files please? I am looking to inserting and extracting files and programs to and from a WIN file on my QIMSI SD card you see.

Sorry again.

Hi Mark

If you are trying to manipulate WIN files from a PC or similar and have Java installed, then Wolgang Lenerz' QXLWinReader is a fine utility that I use regularly to move files in and out of WIN files on my Windows PC, ready to re-insert the SD Card hosting the WIN container in to any one of my QLs.

It can be found here:

Alternatively, if you use QPC or a similar QL emulator on your PC, you can 'mount' the WIN Container as, say WIN2_ and move files between the emulator's FS and the container file.

Thanks for that, I'll take a look at both suggestions. I do have Qemulator but I have to register that to use WIN files, and to be honest it's a bit pricy to register.

Actually, QXLWinReader absolutely justifies installing Java on your computer.

That, and SMSQEmulator

Hi,

Why the aversion to installing Java, seems to work on all my Windows, Linux computers.

The registration fee on Q-emulator, is not much, and worth the expense for a stable multi QL-ROM emulation system.
