nLite - How Low Can It Go?

Featured Replies


gee, interesting question. Never saw that one before, nice concept..........

Search is your friend.

Somewhere around 53 MB. Does that answer your question?

How?

When I remove everything I get around 80 MB.

It certainly answers the question asked, but not, I suppose, other questions that should have been asked such as:

What files can be taken out?

What files are left?

What functions, capabilities, etc are lost in the process of getting down to 53MB?

just run it yourself and test it in Virtualbox

What files can be taken out?

that all depends on what can or cannot be called "XP".

What files are left?
the rest :D

Well, the 53MB came out of the microWin project which was an effort by a member here a while ago. For his own reasons he took the project private, but he did a lot of great work paring down the system and keeping it usable. nLite was the main tool, I believe. How small is a bit academic dependiing on how much you want to get done and what you define as an OS. does it need networking to be defined as an OS? Does it need a defragging utility? And so on.

Practically speaking, 80 MB is darned small even with a lot of options removed. I'd say that as long as it does what you need it to do and want it to do, then it's functional for you and qualifies.

Is there anyone who have some thoroughly [RemoveFiles]-entries?

BTW! Isn't a beta of 1.4.2, 1.5 or whatever long overdue?

I probably have the most absurd amount in my [Remove Files] list. Right now it stands at 393 files.
