vLite 1.1.6

Publisher's Description:

Windows Vista from Microsoft takes a lot of resources, we all know that. So here is the tool for easy removal of unwanted components and bootable ISO creation in order to make Vista run faster and to your liking. This tool doesn't use any kind of hacking, all files and registry entries are in their original form and protected as they would be if you install the full version only without the components you select for the removal.

MS does not support any such apps-- to the point of trying to thwart some at times... then again, if MS put out a capable OS, there would be minimal need for utilities like vLite. Save your subpar ratings for Vista, not for the apps trying to remedy the situation...as this is NOT the case of an app trying to better a competent product while putting one's data at risk-- it's the OS: Vista, that's putting our data at risk.

heh.... so many risks you take with this type of software... And that a new one is released to fix bugs where your data is at risk. Microsoft does not support Vlite installations. Your data folks. Worth it?

If you really want Vista and want it to run well on older hardware you should try using this program to knock out the bloat. I was able to get it to run fairly decent, albeit no Aero but not in classic mode either, on my old Pentium 3 laptop with 256MB of RAM. Pretty nice if you ask me.

I have to give them credit it really does make Vista Run faster all around turn off all the needless crap that MS put in there by default and at times will not allow you to turn off... I did note in the version I tested they did not have the WGA MS Update processes listed for removal. I'm sure to make it legal... But the plugin for those do work with this program if you add them manually. Thus making this a must have tool for making your own Windows Vista DVD installation disc for your fair use how you wish to use it. Works nicely for VMWare images. ;)
