Easily Change Windows 7 ISO Editions
The Windows 7 ISO Image Edition Switcher is a set of small binary patches (and a tool to apply these patches) that will convert an official Windows 7 ISO (32-bit & 64-bit) disc image into an official Windows 7 ISO disc image of another edition (This tool will not change 32-bit to 64-bit or vise versa). The resulting ISO images are bit-for-bit identical with those posted on MSDN or TechNet, and their SHA-1 hashes should match the official hashes posted by Microsoft. Using this method saves time instead of having to unpack, edit and repack the ISO.
Please note:
-this tool works for all editions of Windows 7 except Enterprise
Instructions:
1. Extract the files from the archive.
2. Run "binpatcher.exe"
3. Select the appropriate patch from the "7600.16385-disc_switch_patches" folder.
4. Select the .ISO you would like to modify. (CAUTION: edits the selected .ISO does not make copy)

The ei.cfg Removal Utility is a simple tool that will remove the ei.cfg from any Windows 7 ISO disc image, thereby converting the image into a "universal disc" that will prompt the user to select an edition during setup. This tool works by toggling the deletion bit in the UDF file table, eliminating the need for unpacking and rebuilding the ISO, which means that this is extremely fast (the process of patching the ISO to remove ei.cfg takes only a fraction of a second), and the process is easily reversible (running the utility on a disc image patched by this utility will restore the disc image to its original state).
Instructions:
1. Extract the files from the archive.
2. Run "eicfg_remover.exe"
4. Browse for and select the .ISO you would like to modify. (CAUTION: edits the selected .ISO does not make copy)

Both of these tools are ideal for those who do not have the knowledge, or internet bandwidth but still want replica editions of Windows 7.
If you would like to confirm the authenticity of the created .iso please use a file hashing tool like HashTab and confirm the hashes with the following .txt file.
