Hi All I'm new here this is my first post. I'm finding it really difficult to find detailed info for all the options we have to eliminate. The little hints help sometimes but not much most of the time. i want to use my PC soley for FL studio, with my external usb powered focusrite audio interface. with multi monitors and midi keyboard via usb, usb wireless mouse and keyboard, google chrome portable via ethernet no need for anythi g wifi or Bluetooth. Other audio programs adobe audition version 3.01 and ofcourse many audio vst plugins to use inside FL and adobe audition on either windows 8.1 or 10 both home edition 64bit. And a sample browser program and not much else aside maybe a simple audio and video player and pdf reader and calculator. Would you be able to know everything or at least a lot of things i can disable knowing I'm using the pc for the above only? For example i am not going to be using a printer so i can safely delete this from the iso via the software but there are many many many other options of things to remove and i would like to remove as much as possible but things like netframework and active x and services e.t.c I'm not in the know about every option. Do you think you would have time to go through the software for me? You can save preset file for your chosen configuration

Hello and welcome Smile

You may start with these configuration files (named WCCF) for EX-100 in this page :
https://www.winreducer.net/wccf.html

Maybe the "Desktop (Security+Edge+Store) (Normal)" wccf should work for you ... it will remove a huge list of components but keep the essential (only for ethenet connection, no wifi or bluetooth support). Just take care to do not remove Net Framework (in "APPLY - Optimizations" tab) the first time you use this wccf, because it may potentially break some software you may need.

If you want an audio and video player there are many alternative, such as : foobar (only audio), VLC (audio and video) or media player classic (audio and video).
For a web browser : firefox, chrome or opera.

Let us know if you need more assistance.

I wish you to have a great day !

I'm agree with you about portable apps, as much as possible I'm using them for my purpose Smile
In the wccf, I mentioned in my previous post, Net Framework 4.7 files will be removed (because I selected it to be removed) with the idea to reduce the installation size ... but your software may need net framework (or not, I do not know : just check for the requirements in your software developer website).

Usb audio interface should be supported without trouble, of course you may need to install the specific drivers for your usb interface ... in the other hand, in the EX-100 "Multimedia" tab, there are several codec (audio and video) which may be required for your audio software, so you should probably keep them, at first, until you are absolutely sure that your software will not need it.

Ok thanks for input i have asked one of the developers for their software if they require these things. Forgive me but what is a wccf?

A wccf (= "WinReducer Custom Configuration File") is a file which stores all your settings, like that you will be able to easily load it for a future use, with all your settings already (and automatically) selected ... but you will be able to save your settings easily in this file, in case you want to add or remove more components.

Hi any help anyone? Also i can't workout if some options are keeping or removing things when on. It's a bit confusing the way some things are labeled.

Try VMware Workstation Player or an installation on a real machine and let us know if it works then.


I had a similar problem only with Virtual Box: https://forum.winreducer.net/t2613-solved-ex-100-v2-1-4-0-rs5-17763-134-and-17763-1-installation-error-with-integrated-updates
