version, then I have created a separate 32bit lite version as well, search for it, its installation takes up less space than this 64bit version.


~~~NO ACTIVATOR/CRACK/THIRD PARTY FILES INCLUDED~~~
You should be able to activate this version with your legitimate product key. So if you are reading this Steve Balmer, please don't sue me, thanks (not that I am hoping on this factor alone, but still, please don't sue).
~~~ABOUT~~~
This lite version is created by stripping unneeded components from the original version of Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit as a way to lighten resources and reduce required disk space. The main goal was to create a lite version, but still remain true to the original Windows 7 installation as possible, while also keeping compatibility (as much as possible with components still retained) and stability. There are few minor tweaks to default desktop settings for convenience, they are documented below in "Visual and Minor Tweaks" section.

My guess is when Service Pack 1 comes out for Windows 7, it probably won't be compatible with this lite version.


~~~INSTALLATION SIZE~~~
Around 4gb, minus pagefile and hibernation file. (As opposed to full version taking up 7gb.)

~~~MINIMUM RAM REQUIRED~~~
At least 384mb required for installation, although more is highly recommended or use Ready Boost. (Thanks to another user for this info.)
~~~COMPONENTS RETAINED (not full list)~~~
IE, WMP, Bitlocker Drive Encryption, Desktop Gadgets, Games (Inbox & Premium), HomeGroup, **Manual Install, Network and Sharing Center, RemoteApps and Desktop Connection, UAC, Windows Defender, Windows Firewall, ***Windows Mobile Device Center compatibility, hardware support (all items listed under section in vLite), hardware drivers (graphic, fax, modem, printer, scanner, storage, LAN, WLAN)

*vLite preset file is included listing all excluded components
**Manual Install retains ability to install Windows from USB drive (search the web if you want to know how)
***Windows Mobile Device Center needs to be installed separately if you want to sync your Windows Mobile phone
~~~VISUAL AND MINOR TWEAKS~~~
Show all desktop icons (User, Computer, Network, Control Panel)
Show empty drives in Computer folder
Show menubar in Explorer
Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar
Turned off animation, fading and sliding effects
Don't save taskbar thumbnail previews

Aero.theme settings modified with these attributes: Font size 10, large mouse cursor, sound scheme off.

User account pictures: These are the icons/logos that you choose for your username. I personally dislike most of the ones that came with 7, therefor, I deleted some of them and included a few that I like from Vista. I previously mentioned no third party files, but these user account pictures imported from Vista are pretty harmless.
~~~YOUR SECURITY CONCERNS~~~
I created this iso as a mean to share them and have no intention of putting in harmful codes. The file "install.wim" within the folder "sources" inside the iso included all files that will be installed. Therefore, you can extract those files and scan them.
~~~FAQ: frequently 'asked' questions~~~
-How to enable Aero theme?
Windows SAT is removed, so you'll need to manually enable it. First make sure your graphic card's driver is installed, then go into Personalize and click on the theme "Aero".

-How to save disk space?
Pagefile and hibernation files are around 2-4gb each. If you think you have enough ram, disable or lower the size of pagefile. Also, disable and delete the hibernation file by running command prompt as administrator and typing: powercfg -h off.
