Well, I can live without .NET in my machine the unique app that I use and need .net is vLite !!!! I never use event viewer.

gonna try by keeping net3 in vlite but its removed with dism!!! for some reason it still shows up in vlite after dism?

[liquid0624]

I would not remove that (d0tn3t 3.5 framework) so many programs use it as well as windows components its not worth removing in my opinion.

i would be careful of which files you nullify as they are hardlinked to the system32 folders & elsewhere?

[aviv00]

with that one, i removed netfx also a lot of drivers from system32\driverstore\filerepository & winsxs. deleted windows powershell from system32 but couldnt remove from winsxs as i kept getting install errors. also removed the opticalmediadisc files from winsxs, wallpapers, some leftover drivers & games

Hi aviv00, I will try to answer yours questions:
1) Nullify was created for apply to WIM images mounted. NOT for your installed system, but could be work too.
2) I think that Nullify can be used in Server 2008 too, because is a simple program, don't use extrange techniques nor specific API (including X64 editions)
3) All files created by Nullify go to the %TEMP% folder. These files are NOT deleted after run it.
4) Nullify create a batch file with the contents from a folder, adding the command "type nul >" before each file name.
5) If the current user don't have sufficient privileges over the folder that you want to nullify, Nullify will create the batch file but will fail silently.
I think that your specific problem was try to apply Nullify over installed Windows Server 2008. In this case, you must take ownership over the folders into WinSxS, because normal users can NOT modify their content.
I hope that this information can help you

aviv00, for example I apply Nullify in the nexts folders (in mounted install.wim):
Winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-shell-wallpaper-scenes_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7229.0_none_b9c0378f79ce0b9a
winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-shell-wallpaper-nature_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7229.0_none_eb1791e5c4cd2a6c
winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-s..lpaper-architecture_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7229.0_none_ef18032e7c2d982e
winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-ehome-* (these folders are tied to Windows Media Center and I removed it with DISM)
and a LOT of other folders !!!!!!!!!!!
It's very simple to reduce WinSxS size, install TreeSize Profesional and check the folders with the bigger size into WinSxS (relatives to packages previously removed with vLite/DISM), apply nullify within TreeSize Profesional

I don't remove powershell package, but Nullify all folders relatives to powershell into WinSxS and Seven install OK, only event log viewer show some errors about powershell (Failed to compile: Microsoft.PowerShell.* )

... Just an error everytime during installation. Is there somewhere you can dig up what installation fails on?

dead0, underxp or anyone else have more information on this. A log-file that is created, stating the package or file that is missing?

which package or what error are you getting?

ps heres my latest lastsession & batch file for x86:

[underxp]

Dead0, your last batch file remove only 49 packages!!! Did you tried removing Printer Drivers with vLite? It's a heavy package (about 500 MB) and DISM doesn't remove these drivers from WinSxS, you must remove it manually. Nullify can help, but are many printer driver folders !!!!!

yes it removes less with dism but removes more with vlite! as for the printer drivers, dism does remove it but you have manually delete it from the winsxs folder! i think thats the problem with dism, it removes from windows but doesnt delete the backup from the winsxs folder? basically i just delete the printer drivers starting with prn...

Well, how do you manually remove it? Delete the entire folder or nullify the folder content? vLite remove drivers from WinSxS?
