How does your booster work to remove more stuff? Does your booster program function on its own as a removal or do you need to use RT7?

[winterstorm]

You need to use at first time RT7-Lite and only after you could use Booster !!!
New version that will be release today is searching for your lastsession in the iso, so if it doesn"t detect one, Booster exits.

Booster searches for all files that have been left behind RT7-Lite's removal engine, no matter for languages, architecture (x86 or x64).

An exemple on how many additionnal space you can save in your working clean install : (i've used my lastsession, that you could find here : Winterstorm2050's lastsession)

***************************************************************************
Windows 7 SP1 x64 in Virtualbox (4.1.8) with Paging File Disable :

- Original Winterstorm2050 RT7 x64 lastsession = 4.50Go

- RT7-BOOSTER v3.62 + Modules v2.120 = 3.50Go

<> Saves 1000 Mo !!!!

So you made this program yourself to remove additional items? Would you be able to say, make this a stand alone program to simply remove components?

Of course, I develop this program from 0% to 100% by myself for many months now. I've made many previous version, just take a look here.

And it's far from finished because Booster is not perfect and I have many ideas to add into it.



EDIT : You can download RT7-Booster v4.00.123 : here - Changelog

[SyntaxError]

RT7Lite can't seem to make a working Win7 ISO. Windows Setup crashes every time. I'm not removing any components, only integrating updates and changing a few basic settings, like disabling some services. Nothing unattended either. Using build RT7Lite 1.7.0 on Win7 x64 Home Premium.

Have you tried RT ISO maker?

[SyntaxError]

Yes I have. It doesn't produce a working ISO. Setup fails every time.

What I haven't tried is a different tool or oscdimg.exe

Hi there.
Anyone know how to disable the "Sponsors" window from appearing? It keeps popping up, even when I close it.
I keep getting a popup when that "sponsors" window appears about scripts not running and asking whether I want to keep scripts running.

So annoying!!

What do I do to get rid of it??
Thx

[palT]

all links dead... can someone please upload RT7-BOOSTER v4.09.160 and the latest RT7-Lite to some alternate mirror?

No I don't have an idea but if you have a firewall you could block rt seven lite.

Will give it try, see what happens. That script error now interrupts the RT7-Lite execution as well, so its doubly annoying...

[theKramer]

Few questions about RT7lite:
1. To integrate apps, can I just use the executable files that I have downloaded from the web, e.g. VLC, or do they have to be packaged in a certain way?
2. Is there a setting to change the "Border Padding" for explorer windowx?
3. Is there a setting to change the default size of the caption buttons?
4. What does the "Advanced" option do in "Task" window?
5. What does "Optimize Boot.wim and Install.wim" do, and is it safe to select that option?

Thx
