Extra Files
This page covers common extra files customers include in the Extra Files content item
This content item consists of additional content (files) that will be included into the WinPE boot media when being generated. When looking at the WinPE boot media generation log, it will show the referenced content item:

Near the end of the process, the log shows the files being copied recursively into the file structure:

The copy is recursive, meaning it will mirror the same folder structure as the content item. Example, if the content item has this structure, the files will be copied into the same location on the boot media:
Content Item:
\preinit.ps1 \postinit.ps1 \postauth.ps1 \Windows\System32\wmiexplorer.exe \Windows\System32\winpe.jpg
When the files are copied into the boot image, once booted they will be in their realtive paths in WinPE, like so: X:\preinit.ps1 X:\postinit.ps1 X:\postauth.ps1 X:\Windows\System32\wmiexplorer.exe X:\Windows\System32\winpe.jpg
