UEFI EDKII Shell command that stores all available Hii packages (DumpHii)

UEFI EDKII Shell application DumpHii

UEFI EDKII Shell application that stores all available HII packages

Features

To run this shell application just execute it without command line options:

DumpHii

A folder named HPK will be created to store the HII dump.
For each HII package that is found a *.hpk file gets created.
The filename is the GUID of that HII package.

Note: Only the loaded packages that are installed on the system can be dumped.
Means you may have to enter the Setup menu first, boot the shell afterwards and then run the application.
Otherwise the Setup may not get loaded and the HII database has not installed the desired forms.
