Remove unnecessary editions from .wim in one time

Hello gentlemen,

First, I work with .wim files only because I use WDS.
When I mount a new wim (example with 1809 march 2019), I got all editions (11).
As I only need 3 of them, I delete all other but I have to do it one by one.
Is it possible to add a feature to delete unnecessary editions in one time ? (multiple selection)

Thanks ! :)

Mount one of the 3 you are going to keep, go to the Apply page, select Save the image, Check Remove nonessential editions, there check the editions to remove.

An option I didn't notice ... :D Thanks Kusual.
I'll check that but I think this solution is good.
 
use dism export to just export the edition u want and delete the original file
You do realize you're on the NTLite forum? :)
It would be easier to right-click on the Source page the edition you want to Export and do the same without fiddling with the command-line, mount paths and image indexes.
That said, the Apply method explained above can be stored in the preset, making future effort non-existent for the same scenario.
 
Oh right,old habits
same idea can be done with NTlite
this way is better cos its space /reduce size
