|
Version of the type of image file. Current possible versions: 1 (up to and including version 4), 2 (current version)**
|
| ExpressFlags
| DWORD
|
Optional key for disabling buttons in the Express view. This key can help administrators limit the functionality that is available over the interface so that users can only have restricted access to the program’s features. If the key isn’t set, all buttons are enabled. The DWORD values can be changed so that certain buttons in the Express are disabled:
- Create image button: 00 00 00 01
- Restoration button: 00 00 00 10
- Switch to full view button: 00 00 01 00
- Read image information button: 00 00 10 00
- Mount image button: 00 01 00 00
- Unmount drive-Button: 00 10 00 00
- Help button: 01 00 00 00

* Can also be controlled over the user interface. If you’re not sure, make changes over the user interface. There you can find additional explanations and selection options.
** The format of image files was extended in O&O DiskImage 4. In addition to the imaged data, checksums are placed in the image so that an identity check can be carried out for data inside the image. Older versions of O&O DiskImage do not recognize this extended image format and would label the image as invalid. To help older versions of O&O DiskImage work with images created by a newer version, the new version can create an image using the “old” format.
