NeoMayhem Posted February 2, 2003 Author Share Posted February 2, 2003 Here's mine!Mine almost 3x bigger :( How did you do that? I deleted the dllcache folder, the help folder, the 20mb of modem drivers, Internet Explorer, and a bunch of other folders that I didnt think were needed :p I was planing on formating after I did all that, but everthing still works great, and windows runs faster, so I am going to make an img of this install, and keep it untill SP2 betas start comming out :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kagaku Posted February 2, 2003 Share Posted February 2, 2003 Windows XP SP1 It's not the smallest directory, but then again, I've got over 400GB of hard drive space, I won't be running low anytime soon. :) Edit: I just noticed I've got the second smallest so far, and I've only deleted the dllcache. What're you guys doing to get 2gig+ Windows folders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoMayhem Posted February 3, 2003 Author Share Posted February 3, 2003 lol, look at the date when it was createdand what all did you delete NeoMayhem? First I deleted the dllcache folder (if you have SP1 not slipstreamed, delete the servicepackfiles folder also), then I deleted all the $NT8738uninstall$ folders, they are backups of files that windows update replaced :p Then I got board, and was about to format my computer, but I wanted to have some fun first, and tried deleting things that I didnt want there :p I deleted the folowing things, my system still works great, and is faster then ever :p The help folder (this is all 50mbs of the windows help files, I didnt need them). Then the PCHealth folder, this is the Help Center app, and system restore that I didnt want. Then in the system32 folder, I deleted all the folders at the top that were only numbers (I dont know why there are there, most of them are empty, and everything works great without them) Next I ran IERadicator to uninstall internet explorer, it says that is doesnt work on XP, but if you have SFP disabled (or removed the dllcache), it works great :p That is all I have done so for, I am still looking for more things that I dont need, my goal is to get the windows folder less then 500mb :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
