Download LitePC 2000-XPlite 1.9.0314

It has been quiet around XPLite for a while, but exactly 10 months after the release of version 1.8, a successor is finally available. With this program a Windows 2000 or XP machine can be configured and cleaned up. For example, a Windows XP installation can be reduced to 350MB and Windows 2000 to no less than 200MB. The software can be tried for up to thirty days and licenses start from $40. Version 1.9.0314 fixes various bugs and adds support for the latest versions of Windows Media Player and Internet Explorer. The full changelog looks like this:

Changes in XPlite Professional 1.9.0314:

• Fixed loading of profiles on startup using /o: command line switch
• Extensive enhancement to IE removal to remove and cleanup IE v7
• Updated uninstaller for Windows Media Player 11 (beta) and fixed some issues with Windows Media Player 10. SHould be possible to wind back to WMP 9 without difficulty from WMP10 or 11.
• Clean IE 6.01 build numbers for XPSP2 in registry corrected up to ensure the appropriate Windows Updates are re-detected following reinstallation of IE v6
• Fixed error when XPlite needs to reboot XP after uninstalling (XPlite could not launch a cleanup when Windows was in the process of shutting down)
• Improve clearing of DLLCache folder. XPlite now moves deleted files to %windir%\LastGood and keeps the original compressed dllcache folder intact. This prevents the automatic system file protection scan on reboot.
• If user elects to disable the DLLCache by setting the SFCQuota to minimum (1MB) then XPlite will create a 1MP temp file in the DLLCache folder to prevent any system files being cached or copied from the CD during the scan (SFCQuota minimum is 1MB and after SP1 cannot be disabled 100%)

• Fix uninstallation and reinstall of SP2 OOBE files
• Added Teletext and VBI Filters to Direct Show component
• Fixed versioning of DirectX 9.0c under XP SP2 and 2003 SP1
