I have just installed wimlibtools, i'm trying to merge 3 split swm files using winlib-imagex.

when i type

wimlib-imagex join /home/yikes/Desktop/win10work/sources/install.swm /home/yikes/Desktop/win10work/sources/merged_install.wim

i get the following error:

[ERROR] Can't open "/home/yikes/Desktop/win10work/sources/merged_install.wim" read-only: No such file or directory ERROR: Exiting with error code 47: Failed to open a file. **

I've tried working in a different folder and i still get the same error. anyone have any tips?

From the Ubuntu wimjoin manual page:

wimlib-imagex join [OPTION...] OUT_WIMFILE SPLIT_WIM_PART

wimjoin, or equivalently wimlib-imagex join, joins the SPLIT_WIM_PARTs into a standalone (one-part) WIM OUT_WIMFILE. All parts of the split WIM must be specified; you probably want to do so using a shell wildcard.

This is an example:

 wimjoin windows.wim windows*.swm

In your case use this command:

wimjoin /home/yikes/Desktop/win10work/sources/merged_install.wim /home/yikes/Desktop/win10work/sources/install*.swm
