There's a hard way and easy way to remove movie maker from XP. The hard way is mentioned in this thread.

The easy way is to extract moviemk.in_ from the XP cd. Then delete everything under [DefaultInstall]. Now delete moviemk.in_ from the cd, and copy your moviemk.inf to the i386 folder. Now when you install, no more movie maker. I made a thread on <<spam>> about this.

Thanks a heap gosh. I didn't even think of that.

You wouldn't be able to do that to a few INF's though wouldn't it?

Wouldn't System File Protection come into play or doesn't that matter with INF files?

your link moviemk.inf was died.

has anywere place more to download it?

Why would you bump up such an old thread??
