Slimming Down WPI

[lurk&jerk]

Since I don't use the default theme for WPI (or the audio player for that matter) I deleted all the theme folders except for the one I'm using, which is Vista_Ultimate, to make WPI a little smaller. But I get a "Theme Does Not Exist" error when every I attempt to open the options window. WPI otherwise works fine. But are there some files in the default theme folder I need in order to avoid this error message? Thanks in advance.

You need to keep the windows theme in there.

Save space?

Delete everything in the tools folder except sleep.exe

Delete all Lang files except lang_en.js

Delete the manual folder.

That will save you TONS of space.

I don't know about tons of space. But it helps. Many thanks.

compared to deleting a visual style the space u save from deleting those is "tons"

OK I deleted the following:

Audio folder

Manual Folder

All langs but en

Changelog

All themes but windows and vista ultimate

All tools but sleep.exe

The old BGInstall from the Vista_Ultimate theme

Went from:

7.80megs

to

4.74megs

Which equals: @ 35%-40% savings (Now that seems like tons to me....)

There is other things that can be deleted though but then your getting into crippling WPI quite a bit.

If you cant save 5 megs of space on you CD then you REALLY need to upgrade...

The "theme does not exist" message will be taken care of. Something is wrong there that doesn't need to be checked for anymore. I will get it fixed.

Thanks for the catch.

@mritter

Thanks.

My comment about "tons of space" was made tougue in cheek. The savings are significant, I grant you.
