No, however Windows PE is available via several channels. Windows PE is licensed to Volume license customers as a benefit of Microsoft’s Software Assurance and Enterprise Agreement programs. A developer version can be licensed by qualified independent software and hardware vendors (ISVs and IHVs) that are investigating a software product that utilizes Windows PE as a preinstallation platform. To learn more about licensing and availability for ISVs and IHVs, please send email to winpe@microsoft.com that includes a contact name, company name, address, telephone number, and a brief description of the intended development plans using Windows PE. Please send only licensing questions, general inquiries cannot be fielded. Please visit http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/programs/sa/benefits/winpe.mspx for general information about Windows PE for volume license customers or send email to Askwinpe@microsoft.com for general inquiries.
