DRAG DROP
You administer computers that run Windows 8.
The computers on your network are produced by various manufacturers and often require
custom drivers.
You need to design a recovery solution that allows the repair of any of the computers by
using a Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE).
In which order should you perform the actions? (To answer, move all actions from the list of

Answer:
Box 1: Extract WinRE files from the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (ADK)
Box 2: Mount the WinRE image file.
Box 3: Add additional drivers.
Box 4: Unmount the image file
Box 5: Commit changes
Box 6: Create a bootable WInRe Reocvery Media

Microsoft documentation states changes will be lost if an image is unmounted before committing changes.
Therefore, shouldn’t the commit action come before the unmount action?

I would also like to know the answer.
There is also this: Dism.exe /unmount-image /mountdir:C:\mount\winre /commit
which is very helpful … to confuse the situation.
It’s tricky because if you try to unmount an image without specifying the commit or discard switches, I’ve found that it won’t unmount it and just display a message telling you that you need to either commit the changes or discard them. Take from that what you will but to me that says that you need to commit the changes before unmounting.
WinRE 8 is not part of ADK, but part of Windows 8 installation files.

What WinRE files that are being extracted from ADK?
Is correct because the commit command happens at the end of the unmout command line.

so you mount the image, make the changes and when you unmount it, you commit it on the same time
