Hey,

I am trying to slim down the installation of Visual Studio since I don't need a lot of it. I have it installing properly using an AutoIt script and I was wondering if there is a way that I can watch what files it access's off the CD-Rom when I install it so I can delete all the other ones.

My current method is install -> try deleting a bunch of files that I don't think it needs -> reinstall and test. It works but I'd rather get it straight down to nothingness if I can.

Thanks
Shawn

Sysinternals Filemon would be able to give you that kind of feedback, once you set a few filters to trim down its output.

Perfect guys. Thanks a lot. I remember using the MemMonitor a long time ago but I totally forgot. This gave me exactly what I needed. I haven't trimmed it yet but I have all the information I need.

Thanks
Shawn
