If you want to create recovery media for a 32-bit device, the amd64 in the example command should be changed to x86. 5. If you are restoring a device without an Ethernet port, use this step. Otherwise, you can skip this step and continue to Mount and Configure "boot.wim". To support a WiFi connection, replace WinPE with WinRE. The following example uses WinRE from the Windows Recovery Tool.
