Does Win10/Win11 PE image support MBIM feature?

Question

Hello, I'm creating Win10/Win11 PE image.

And from MSFT's website I know there are many features can add into WinPE image.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/winpe-add-packages--optional-components-reference?view=windows-11

But I don't see the package for MBIM, for Network related package only following packages.

Network/WinPE-Dot3Svc

Network/WinPE-PPPoE

Network/WinPE-RNDIS

Network/WinPE-WDS-Tools

Network/WinPE-WiFi-Package

So does Win11/Win10 PE image support MBIM?

Many thanks!

Answer 1

Hello

MBIM is short for Mobile Broadband Interface Model?

1. WinPE is a Windows Preinstalled environment. It is a mini system with limited features though it can be extended features.

Since you have got the related articles about the feature it supported, the MBIM feature is not listed here.

2. If we want to add the feature to the feature, we need the related packages at least. Have you got any packges for this feature?
3. It seems you are not the only person who has this question.

So I am afraid it is not available to use MBIM in WinPE.
