I'm trying to decrease the size of our Vista WIM file for testing purposes
and for future deployment. We have Vista Business MLF edition which is part
of our Select agreement. Within that image file (Install.wim) we have En-US
as the default language but it appears we also have Korean, Jpn and Chinese
(Simple/Trad) language files. I know the extra files are taking up an
additional ~350mb of disk space that I want to recover.

Creating a new WIM file using the /export switch does not remove the files.
Does anyone know what files can be removed from the install.wim file to have
an En-US only install disk?

A Microsoft tech looked at the disk and scratched his head, didn't know how
to remove them as we have no overseas operations and do not need the overhead
during distribution.
Thanks

Matt,

Check out http://articles.techrepublic.com.com...1-6131884.html.

Specifically, look at ImageX.

Cheers,
Tim
