June 26, 200422 yr Author We don't need any other things??Just customize the winnt.sif??It seems we could use the setupmgr.exe to creat a similar file,can I use it by just rename it??

June 30, 200422 yr Author Almost nothing,huhI think they are useless to meI want they are all uninstalledWhen I use nlite to remove them,there are some errors,so I try to uninstall them by this way.
June 30, 200422 yr Almost nothing,huhI think they are useless to meI want they are all uninstalledWhen I use nlite to remove them,there are some errors,so I try to uninstall them by this way.Well, I use it too and it works fine for me.I'm using[Components] IEAccess=off OEAccess=off WMPOCM=offto disable Internet Explorer, Outlook Express and Windows Media Player. Note: these programs aren't actually _removed_ but they are made invisible to a (normal) user: they're installed but there aren't any shortcuts to them.
July 1, 200422 yr Author What do you mean??I use the administrator account.Do ou mean them are all visible to administrator??Oh,I shouldn't remove xp's components by this way??
July 1, 200422 yr What do you mean??I use the administrator account.Do you mean them are all visible to administrator??Oh,I shouldn't remove xp's components by this way??NO! It will be invisible to _everyone_. Invisible in this case is: no shortcuts point to them. So they aren't actually _removed_, because some of them are necessary (e.g. Internet Explorer for Windows Update) or some components of them are necessary (e.g. Outlook Express has some files that are also needed for Outlook).However, I don't know if this is true for all XP's components.
July 1, 200422 yr Author There must be some errors inmy winnt.sif. Now I'll try to do that again.You said they are still installed.Still the components are fully copied to the harddisk and available for other programs??No shortcuts point to them.We still could access them by finding the executable files??

Now I'll try to do that again.You said they are still installed.Still the components are fully copied to the harddisk and available for other programs??No shortcuts point to them.We still could access them by finding the executable files??To all of your questions: yes.BUT, I repeat: I don't know if this is true for all XP's components.
