ignign0kt Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 I noticed vlite is only for modifying the setup files to create a new install disc. What if I wanted to remove components on a already installed Vista system? Are there are programs out there for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistme Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 You need to goto the add/remove programs menu in control panel, I know its changed its name to programs and applications or something (Im at work at the moment so I can cheack to see it exact name). in there along the left side there is a button called turn windows features on or off (or sumething similar to that anyway). In there you can add and remove all the windows components. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizban2 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Start => control panel => Programs and Features => Turn On/Off Windows features in the left hand column Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignign0kt Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 But see, the problem with this method... it doesn't remove it, it just disables it and remains on the hard drive.I guess I'll have to wait for some other tool to come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amenx Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 Its very tough to remove some things in Vista, the permissions/ownership hurdles will exasperate you, even with a full admin account. I wanted to delete the large movie files/samples in Movie Maker and had to go into safe mode to delete each item seperately, it wouldnt allow me to delete folders, which makes the effort unworthwhile with many files.
