Portlock utilities and bootable CDs for Windows Pre-Installation Environment (WinPE)

Windows Pre-installation Environment (WinPE) is a lightweight version of a Windows operating system used to deploy workstations and servers. Since 2001, Portlock has been busy developing a large set of WinPE utilities for managing and troubleshooting enterprise systems.

The current set of Portlock’s production bootable CDs are based on Windows PE 2.1, which is the lightweight version of Windows Server 2008 (same codebase as Windows Vista SP1).

Note: There is a beta version of Portlock Boot CD based upon WinPE 4.0 which is the pre-installation environment for Windows 8. This version of Portlock Boot CD is available from the beta section of our FTP server.

Note: There is an additional version of Portlock SMART Suite for Windows based upon WinPE 3.0 (build 7100) which is the pre-installation environment for Windows 7 RC. This version of Portlock SMART Suite is available from Portlock License Manager with a valid license.

Available Portlock bootable CDs based upon WinPE (32-bit and 64-bit platforms):

• Portlock Boot CD for Netware (5.26) – WinPE 2.1
• Portlock SMART Suite for Windows (5.12) – WinPE 2.1
• Portlock SMART Suite for Windows (5.11) – WinPE 3.0
