EWF NTLDR
The EWF NTLDR component provides a modified version of NT Loader that is written for the EWF overlay mapping structures and that can access the most recent snapshot of the disk. The modified NT Loader uses all cached disk-write operations that are stored in the overlay volume while the operating system is loaded. This strategy makes it possible to boot from the protected volume and ensures that any updates to boot drivers or registry keys persist after rebooting.
The EWF NTLDR component is required to boot from writable media that is protected by EWF. It is not required to boot from read-only media that uses a RAM overlay.
For more information about EWF, see Enhanced Write Filter.
