Ok so if I mark something from right side then it means that the marked element will be disabled or enabled?

If you check something in the right side, it is enabled.

Hi guys, I just installed Win 7 and everything works fine so far. But now i wanted to play my favorite game Warcraft 3, but it wont start. Upon starting it the screen just goes black a few seconds and them im back on the desktop. So I guess I removed something Warcraft 3 needs to run. Do you guys have any idea what that could be?

best regards

I see you removed Nvidia/ATI drivers.Can you run other 3D stuff?

Also maybe program compability assistant service is needed?

Hi, yes i can run 3d stuff. Everything works except Warcraft III. Even with PCA enabled it does not work. Ill try to build a new image with "Windows Media Encoders and Decoders" in and report back.

best regards

Ok so the things that are checked by default from the beginning in the app are the same that by default windows installation? And if something isn't checked then it means that it is also by default disabled in standard installation of Windows?

At least, that's the conclusion I've come to.

When removing japanese (I think) fonts be sure to leave an adnotation that this will break your office 2010 installation. Or just leave those 2 files "MEIRYO.TTC" and "MEIRYOB.TTC" and everything will go smoothly. Maybe add an option to it to "leave necessary files for office". By the way I tried searching for a short while but did not find the answer. Why is the chinese option marked in red? It should say something like "this, that, and this again was reported to break if u remove this". Anyway great software

Agreed. And "Removing winsxs cache will render .NET unusable and uninstallable in the future." Also, "Removing Internet Explorer requires a forced reboot after first logon," just so people don't freak out when Windows goes down for a restart. Another example would be Windows Media Manager, in the driver section. "Windows Media Manager is MANDATORY if you use media hardware of any kind." This is not meant as a criticism; just a suggestion so people might know what they are getting themselves into.

Hello friend.....NET can be installed again. I changed the settings. It will be uninstalled correctly and you can install it again without any trouble. I will add a note for other things....thank you

I had three out of four programs work, but Snapstream BeyondTV's WebUI is heavily dependent on all of the .NET frameworks, and threw errors.

hi, i'm having some problems with RT7Lite from the earlier released, even with this one (1.0.9 beta) : i can't delete or customize the services without creating an error at the 2nd stage of the installation, i mean after the 1st reboot, when, normally, it comes with the "starting services" screen (don't know if it is really this in english, i use french version of 7) and become the "end of the installation".

It stopped at the "starting services" screen, and do infinite reboot ...

Until the 1.0.8, i couldn't remove or customize ONE service, if i did, i had this error.

With the 1.0.9 i'm able to delete this services in "components" section : SensrSvc, HomeGroupListener, HomeGroupProvider (without any services customizing in "tweaks" panel)

But with the "full" list of removal i wanna use, it doesn't work at all (see the inf file)

It is because i'm removing too much ?

Because of services dependencies ? (could be great in next releases to add a dependency check for services/components)

Some services must be there for the installation ?

Oh by the way, if you want a french translator for your tool i can try if you want.

It looks to me like you are removing a great deal of services, some of which I'm sure are required by Windows to function properly. It's hard to tell, as the services are abbreviated in the Lastsession.ini. In truth, there is very little to be gained by removing most services in terms of hard drive real estate. Perhaps you should simply leave the services section alone completely, then in the tweak section, used one of the "Black Viper" selectable presets on the services tab to disable unnecessary or idle services. Personally, I use the "tweaked" preset.

ok thx for the reply.

In fact i was deleting those services because when i was using vLite i deleted them in Vista, those services are totally useless for me, that's why.

I'll do as you say, leave them, and use the blackviper reg-services-tweak-file we can create on his website.

If i have some suggestions for the next releases :

- could be great to have the possibility to have access to the "ISO" panel after the "apply" even if we haven't select it in task before the "apply", could same some time.

- cab files support for updates (!)

- change the system of the tweak services tab : sometimes the dropdown panel doesn't keep my selected choice ... some clipping if i can say ... weird, could be more clean and clear if it was like that : see here (with colored dependencies could be awesome)

If that's the case, maybe something else is at issue. If anything, Rt7 Lite seems more immune from danger when removing things than vLite was, at least where Windows 7 is concerned. Too bad the LastSession.ini isn't annotated, otherwise I'm sure the offending setting would jump right out. I'll take another look at it.

On second thought, I think this very telling right here. By merely removing ONE service, you couldn't complete the install? From what I can see, you removed nothing from the system section. I'd be willing to bet it's because you're using it with French Windows 7. Also, are you beginning with a fresh, unmodified W7 disc; not already modified by vLite?
