Can someone make a new Component Removal Guide?

I was using this one http://www.wincert.net/forum/topic/11611-win-toolkit-component-removal-guide/ but there is sooooo many things to remove now I was hoping someone who is knowledgeable could create a new one or give me a link to a larger one. I can't seem to find any.

For Windows 7 using Win Toolkit?  I'm not aware of further removals through Win Toolkit that can save any appreciable space without effecting capabilities.  I personally remove nothing, but that's just me.  What "sooooo many things to remove" are you referring to?

What new things to remove are you talking about? When have they appeared? I didn't see any in a long time.

The gigantic list of components to remove. Every time I use this program it's like Russian roulette if it's work or not, I'm 0 and 3 with Win Toolkit v1.4.36.2. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but After I removed 38 things my .iso is now somehow larger than the .iso I started off with. Really not sure how that's possible.

I go to advanced tab, Component removal, select browse, look at my unzipped iso and select install.wim, select Windows 7 Ultimate, double click it so it mounts, well this is interesting all of the compnents I removed previously are gone..... restarting the program doesn't work so I'll have to restart the computer.

Round 2

 

I go to advanced tab, Component removal, select browse, look at my unzipped iso and select install.wim, select Windows 7 Ultimate, double click it so it mounts, remove all of the components I don't want then select remove components, there's no continue button or anything so I have to hit close. Where I chose from save image, discard image, or keep mounted, so I select Save Image. Now I go to iso maker and create my iso.

 

The odd thing being I've ran this piece of software a couple times now and the first time my iso was over 5GB the second it was slightly larger than my initial iso. I'm going to go run WinToolkit_1.4.29 and see if it works.

Remember, removing components with Win Toolkit does NOT typically remove much if anything from the ISO, but rather those components will not be installed so your installed size will be smaller.  If the smallest Win7 ISO is your overriding desire, then you will probably be happier using a different tool.
