How do I remove WIA completely?
In run Windows XP Pro system (with all hotfixes except SP2) and I
have Windows Image Aquisition (WIA) installed.
WIA seems to be implicated in all sorts of things which are an
unwanted overhead on my small machine. I have disabled the WIA
service but there seem to be all sorts of other activities to do with
WIA such as:
(1) services such as the Still Image Service (StiSvc)
(2) I get entries Event logs saying I have errors because WIA can't
start,
(3) RegMon reports masses of unnecessary registry accesses to keys
related to WIA (device ref A1F4E726-8CF1-11D1-BF92-0060081ED811).
(4)
I always use TWAIN and I never use WIA.
