I have a Dell Wyse 7010 / Z10D running ThinOS 8.6-era firmware. Dell KB states the Wyse USB Imaging Tool was removed from public download and directs end-of-service users to contact support. I need either the archived Wyse USB Imaging Tool 3.5.0 or the proper ThinOS 8.6 recovery/Merlin image for a Wyse 7010. I have a failed SSD and need to install software.
The legacy tool you want is Dell Wyse USB Imaging Tool v3.1.0 — that is the version normally required for older Wyse/Merlin image deployment. Dell’s official download page is still indexed, although Dell formally deprecated/removed the newer USB Imaging Tool in April 2025.dell+1
Use Dell’s driver page for v3.1.0:
The historical Dell file path referenced in the release notes is:
I have already downloaded and verified OS_Merlin_v8.6_B013_7010_ENG.zip (Driver ID 3YDNM), which contains par1.img, bios.img, and commandsXml.xml. What I am missing is the legacy Wyse USB Imaging Tool / Merlin Imaging Tool needed to deploy it to a replacement SSD
@anne_droid thank you with your help i was able to get both of my wyse on the latest slimos i did not do bios on either 3.0d and 1.0L both loaded with the help of chatgpt Thanks for the help everyone
