When you launch the tool, you are greeted with a tabbed interface. Here is what each section does:
| Tab | Function | Why Use It? | |------|----------|--------------| | Extract | View and extract components (DXE drivers, PEI modules, SMM handlers) from BIOS | Backup original modules before editing | | Replace | Swap an existing module with a modified version | Patch a driver, inject a custom EFI app | | Insert | Add a new module into a free volume slot | Add NVMe driver, add network boot ROM | | Delete | Remove modules entirely | Strip out unneeded features for space | | Change Settings | Modify EFI volume attributes | Alter compression, set GUIDs | | Secure Boot | Manage keys and signatures | Insert custom PK, KEK, DB keys |
For most modding tasks, Insert and Replace are the workhorses. mmtool 4.50.0.23
