marcusj0015 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 It says it's removed them, but the files are still in the WinSXS and it still lists the same packages as being installed after using the /r command on about 100 packages.I've commited, and exported the wim and it's still not gone. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 It seems to me that it doesn't physically remove them, but makes it so they do not install. Having not actually used it, not sure about that but just a guess. Looking at this, seems that you need to do additional steps to remove the winsxs data:Go extreme with vlite & Serverif u want to remove winsxs as well and still have the aero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicAndre1981 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 Have you removed them off- or online? The Scavenging cleans the files later. In Win8 you can force the Scavenging with a DISM command. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicAndre1981 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 nope, DISM would use the engine from the Win7 image which doesn't support this operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
