commits data in the overlay upon shutdown and disables EWF after
the system reboots.

Enhanced Write Filter user interface

In addition to the DOS command-line tool, the Windows XP
Embedded image now includes an Enhanced Write Filter (EWF)
GUI. You can access the EWF GUI through the Control Panel or the
Administrative Tools option for the administrator.

To access the EWF GUI:

1. Log in as an administrator

2. Select Start > Control Panel > Other Control Panel Options or

Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance >
Administrative Tools.

3. Click the EWF Manager icon.

4. Use the EWF GUI to Select Write Filter options.

The EWF GUI includes the following buttons:

Enable EWF

This button is the same as executing

ewfmgr.exe c: -Enable

from

the DOS prompt.

Disable EWF

This button is the same as executing

ewfmgr.exe c: -Disable

from

the DOS prompt.
