Esd is a file format with a higher compression ratio and a higher compression ratio than win. The Esd file is the file format used by Microsoft to distribute copies of windows online after the start of windows8. At the beginning, Microsoft's official website did not release a deployment tool that could support such images, but it was not until Windows 8.1 update build 6.3.9600.16610 (a leaked version of update) that Microsoft's own DISM image deployment and management tool began to support esd image file processing.

Microsoft's version 6.3.9600.16610 of DISM definitely supports esd image file processing. Or you can think of .esd files as .wim files, so using the WinNTSetup system installer can also be used in winpe environments.
