Accidently deleted boot images and cant get them back
I deleted the boot images from my software library and cant find a way to recreate them. I've tried creating a windows PE boot.wim using the ADK and also importing from a location in the SCCM folder ...

ok, but does CM have access to the folder? aka the local system account? You can check access to it using the high level steps within this blog. https://www.recastsoftware.com/resources/how-to-access-the-local-system-account/

I'm running my console on the primary site server so I think it has access. However to be sure, I have deployed an app package as suggested and obtained a cmd shell running as nt authority\system. This shell allowed me access to the folder containing the wim. attrib boot.wim does not show the file flagged as read only so I think its read/write. The full path is E:\Program Files\Microsoft Configuration Manager\OSD\boot\x64\boot.wim
