no, I haven't even heart about this tool. Why Win8 ISO/DVD you use use? The ESD version should not work, you'll a version with an install.wim

Try the WinToolkit, especially after it releases v.1.5. Again, it will require an install.wim.

Actually, there is a forum for Winreducer. Here you go: Winreducer Forum

Apparently, you're the only person who presents those symptoms. I've got 0 problems with Winreducer.

Could you specify which network components not to remove in vlite to prevent the install from failing?

Sorry to bump a 4 months old thread but i'm a bit confused

Do i need to use all 3 of these tools to remove unwanted parts of windows 8 ?

[winterstorm]

Hi all,

It depends on what you want to do :

- Win Toolkit : add things to your ISO

- WinReducer 8 : Remove things from your ISO

- vlite : not sure about what it could do for windows 8

Hi dave999,

Can you explain in brief, how you did this to your Windows 8 ISO?

1- Enabled .Net 3.5

2- What components you removed with vLite

I have used Winreducer 8 and removed many things, everything was fine but after installation 'User Customization' doesn't work in my case.

Thanks.
