WIM Splitter
Is there any way to specify the size of the chunks that the Splitter creates?
It looks like it creates approximately 500MB pieces. I'd like to make it bigger so that there are fewer pieces.
I know it's strictly a cosmetic thing, but I hate seeing so many pieces. If I could do 4GB pieces (the max for FAT32) then my image would be 3 pieces instead of the 26 that it is now. :D
Thanks!

Hi Wayne,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Currently it is not possible to specify the size of the SWM splits with the WIM Splitter. I have submitted a change request today to the ImageAssist development team for possible future inclusion.
As a workaround - from withing the Windows 10 operating system, you can use DISM.exe from a command line. Here's an example:
Dism /Split-Image /ImageFile:C:\image.wim /SWMFile:C:\image.swm /FileSize:3700
Cheers -
Tyler
