WarZ Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Just wondering if there was a more complete point by point listing of what each item is, whats worth removing, and what really isnt worth bothering with.Or are the color listings and quick descriptions of each item considered good enough when choosing what to remove and what not to remove ?BTW, after digging around various forums looking for a good tool to slim down my win7 - I'd like to give major kudos to this tools creator ! This is very slick.TY Quote

Etz Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Theres no correct answer, my removal decisions are purely based on whether i will use it or not.Do I use internet explorer? nope, remove itDo I use Gadgets? nope, remove itand so on...Do I use IIS? nope, remove it... oops lost NET3.5... Maybe you should include somekind of warning for these kind of situations?For the thread starter, Package Descriptions can be found here:http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=27159 Quote
Legolash2o Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) It already does...P.S. your link doesn't work. Edited November 12, 2011 by Legolash2o Quote
Er1ch Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Maybe implementing some presets would help, like 'Choose which features you don't use'?'advanced/corporate networking features' would select everything under Networking and IIS'virtualization' would select HyperV, VirtualPC'mobile PC', 'Windows Media Player/Center', 'Printing' etc in the same fashion.

myselfidem Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 (edited) It already does...P.S. your link doesn't work.Here is the packages.xls file!Same download link given by Etz, but I made an archive with WinRar!Or rename as packages.xls.

alfreire Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Well, I think the question refers to how components can be removed safely, and then each choose what you want...Regards... ;-) Quote
ricktendo Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 Maybe color code the components that affect each other (based on the packages.xls) or have tool-tips or some type of description Quote
