this is more less then what I've I did when I choosed almost every thing to remove can you post your last session? and what other applications you are using?, and did it worked correctly? Thanks i selected all for removal.. not useable for me, but i do it with every new version to see how much lower it is..! btw, plasma, have you heard of ryanvm pack? its a hotfix pack that ryanvm updates monthly, so no need to select hotfixes manually, and the ones that aren't needed anymore are removed.. http://www.ryanvm.net/msfn/updatepack.html
