Hi Winter.
Is this version just a bug-fix or are there extra components removed than 0.43?
Thx

Just a bug fix, the next build will have new components to remove ...

Thank you for these new versions.

After the problem with .42, the .41 and .39 do not work.
After a full shutdown of Windows 8 Pro X64:
Creating a new folder WinReducer work, create a new DVD folder, create a new temporary folder.

Using .44:
Using an original version of Windows 8 Pro (X86).
Extract the files by mounting the iso directly with Windows 8: copy / paste into the DVD folder.

All applications: OK (green)
Choice DVD folder and TMP folder: OK
Mounting install.wim: OK
Use: Extreme.wccf
Starting the deletion of Action Center, after 10 seconds: STOP ==> Save
No creations files: winreducer8.wccf and AutoUnattend.xml
No change.

It seems that the problem of .42 blocks using other versions of WinReducer.
Registry keys would be the cause?
Residual files in the USER folder?

I do not know yet, I board since the bug of .42 achieved 8 or 10 tests, it does not work?
If you have an idea, thank you.

Edit : Well thank you for the answer

Edit 2 : OK, thanks, I test debug version.

Ok, guys, I've finally reproduce the bug so I will fix it tomorrow ... Thanks for your feedback ...

Cheers.

i have same problem sometimes. when i m using a win 8 image that includes both x86 and x64 versions in it, and choose to keep only the x64 bit image, the x86 remains ..very annoying bug i think
