epic Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Anyone have suggestions on Removing/Uninstall vista languages from the System32/Winsxs directories? The default language is en-US... all the other (over 50) languages that are taking up diskspace. Regional Settings does not provide any languages to remove but en-US (English).
x-Shadow-x Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Short of going in and hacking away at it (and praying for the best), no there's no way of shrinking this folder easily (or maybe at all). This was discussed here awhile back as well, with some success by some people and epic failure by others, IIRC. You can probably find that thread if you do a quick search and want to read up on it.
epic Posted October 3, 2008 Author Posted October 3, 2008 That comment is regarding 'Winsxs' itself... I'm speaking of the additional 'Languages' that Microsoft decided to install without the users approval.
x-Shadow-x Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 Do you mean when installing (install from scratch)?
epic Posted October 8, 2008 Author Posted October 8, 2008 Maybe I should have named the title Vista 'MUI' ... besides
