Dear All,

 

Does somebody know a good windows component uninstaller.

With the build-in uninstaller you can not uninstall every unnecessary component.

 

Can you please help me with this?

The internet is wonderfull, only the 90% of crap on it isn't!

I love CCleaner IPB Image

If you don't like me, don't look at me or speak with me!

Haven't tried any other uninstallers but the tips below may help a bit.

 

Navigate to sysoc.inf in the C:\WINDOWS\inf.

 

Then press Ctrl+H to open the Replace Wizard.

 

In Replace Wizard:

 

Find what: ,hide,

 

Replace with: ,,

 

Then forward to Control Panels>Add/Remove Programs>Add/Remove Windows Conponents, some hidden Windows Conponents should now show.

 

To remove unused drivers and devices see this link.
