I am yet to clear registry, but kinda too lazy to do it, as its input is mere 30 MB all together but i cleared manifest files accordingly with my removed SxS files so now WinSxS is 730 MB on disk and 460 MB compressed in WIM

dx10 was never ported nor XP has ability to use it

so its 7 gigs down to 5 hmm maybe it would help you if you make language selector and SKU selector (or auto detect) based on that many additional files can be ditched

MB's result would be nice

well sorry to say but that won't get you too far in reducing size since you'd have to keep ALL language versions with its lesser sub-builds as I see, you can only remove Backup folder and few delta files but as you stated in 1st page (with backup folder intact) you don't clean too much

it can go up to 500 MB (without any compression) also i wrote "most of 7600 are not needed" didn't say all thats why i look for counterparts (read duplicates) with 7601 dunno if I want to hassle with manifest files & reg hive tho, seems like a drag I mean if file is missing then its missing, no BSOD will happen, only error dialog which would happen anyway but basically win7 SP1 ++ can fit on 700MB CD, without any major loss of components in fact the only thing that has to be sacreficed is stupid "natural language search" and .net 3 would be cute to see something like "tiny7" stiffing it on 250 MB CD haha

dunno what exactly your prog does, but filtering helps most of .7600. are not needed, same goes for build numbers below 21xxx you can also nuke non en-us fonts backups and code-pages (or whatever its called) then everything not named after your SKU manualy, I managed SP1 + 2015 updates, winsxs to trim down on 764 MB with more detailed crap -10 MB could go down maybe, but thats as far as it goes (32 bit)

nuff said when I finish my custom win7 ISO I'm going after total removal of .net, this includes v2 which other modifiers (vlite, rt7, nttlie) don't allow BUT your problem is not just in installed .net 1. disable page file 2. disable hibernation file 3. disable superfetch 4. disable system restore 5. delete Backup folder from \Windows\Winsxs (this move might break your windows update)

jaclaz lol this is best description ever made hahaha respect

ah that makes sense hahaha thanks

there is difference between holding runtime versions of lets say VB 6 and like 5 versions of same system dll, some even as old as 5 years yet disk cleanup for SP1 doesn't even detect it so no, SxS is not cure for DLL hell

by accident sniffing within system32 folder i came onto this: and looking at installed updates (since I use clean SP1), i have only 5 hotfixes installed, and none match the date of Icon then I looked at programs, only OLD uTorrent and unlocker were installed that day (both old versions) so where this came from ???

well I guess its step up from win98 that one needed reinstall every week

this is actually interesting thing to tinker about either they want to impose people to use UAC (or you get no metro crap) or either .NET or UAC itself is now a real security risk by that I mean the whole backdoor shit and data mining

may I ask, why the fuck people use this OS ?

if you aim for such weak system, you're better off with Opera 10 but before 10.5 (then it became heavy) as Unity and more crap was added as for Firefox, why not use 3.6 ? version 4 and onwards are basically version 4.x (and bloat)

I'd rather see new win2000 with incorporated whole driver wide range and hotfixes and app compatibility layers than this dog shit presented after win7

to me they lost 18 years of NT "experience" with this new 8/10 crap Metro is nothing than recycled Windows Neptune, which was in about 97-98 era they are just using a bit different approach to run these so called apps, but they are not apps as for security, NTOS will NEVER be secure until every system file requires specific cert (ok 64bit ones have this) and until they manage to make every process to run sandboxed, and no UAC isn't that, as is no good since naturally user especially novice will always click YES just to run an app, kinda beats the purpose... not only that, all this cloud crap and backdooring data-mining just opened more doors for malware and that registry + yet unsolved "dll hell" doesn't help maybe I'm missing something (UI won't comment as its shit)

also try with .net reinstall 3.0, 3.5, and above after cleaning not sure but I think they dump some crap into SxS too

theres difference between recommended RAM (which is now called minimum), and a must have when I switched from winME to 2000pro with 128meg RAM it still was flying but XP was already taking its snail trail sure you can run Vista with 128meg too but - anyhows, if they didn't screwed up GDI in win7 which for whatever reason is WORSE than in XP w7 would be "ideal" OS (as Windows can be)

more tests required can you install new updates offline can you install IE 9 , 10, 11 can you uninstall updates installed

you nailed it in start its not faster nor easier to use this should be the law of OS

youre after w32uires.dll for both text and colors problem is, you can change these things only with win7 before SP1 as SP1 includes certificate/signature check, and you can't fake that so if you change something it will break, unfortunately I had to find this out on hard way.... there are also backup files within wim of the same (w32uires and spwizimg, and others...) so if you edit originals you need to replace backup ones too

not really winblinds supports PNG and animated PNG's, which XP's uxtheme does not also winblinds support few effects that XP alone does not and also (lol) wblinds 5 and 6 utilised GPU while XP alone (doh) does not
