I try to install graphics drivers on a winreduced ISO with all WinSxs folder cleanup enabled, (WinSxs folder is 61mb total size) and it gives me a very general error, nothing specific: "Internal system error occured"

Do graphics card drivers depend on files within the WinSxs folder?

sometimes I clear winsxs manually after windows installation, maybe try that after installing your drivers ?

I don't know how to do it in live system, but take ownership and replace the entire winsxs with a cleaned one from some previous installation should work. 
I do it like this but on an offline vhd

Hi Dim
It does not make sense to take ownership and replace the entire winsxs with a cleaned one from some previous working installation 
What is exactly the problem with the WinSxS cleaning  ?

Guys, is the WinSxs folder even responsible at all for graphics drivers errors? or is this just a ridiculous assumption?

descriptionInstall graphics card drivers on WinSxs cleaned up ISO EmptyRe: Install graphics card drivers on WinSxs cleaned up ISO

Hi PolisP
the WinSxs folde is accessed by some programs and mayby by drivers
So it is not a good idea to integrate drivers into the iso
If You do not remove  Windows Update Service  
then the needed  screen driver will be installed automaticly after a while
Also Intel drivers and single updates will be installed
Frawork 3.5  can be installed if there are no missing components

I'll attempt to diagnose the problems with the driver installation with this tool Procmon, because I feel like fixing the problem by keeping some Winreducer settings unchecked, itll take too much time to find the exact setting thats causing it, but thanks for all the suggestions, I'll definetly try them out before diagnosing the problem manually.

(btw, if you ever run into a problem in a winreduced ISO, I strongly suggest you use this tool called Procmon, it displays all events that occur on the system, I've fixed DirectX installation, Discord corrupt error, and a couple other missing .dlls with it)

Markus
