Clear layer for unwanted registry entries, files/folders and add file extension's to exclude before compile.
Tested on:
Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, all both x86 and x64
Tested with SWV/SWS versions:
6.1 SP7 +
7.5 Beta 1 + (notice that 7.5 Release Preview already have file exclude included in the composer)
Included in the zip file:
SWV-CleanUp.exe
Cleanup.ini
How does it work:
SWV-CleanUp.exe reads the values in Cleanup.ini for which registry entries and files and folders to remove from the layer.
It also adds file extension's to the exclude based on the file extensions in the layer.
Cleanup.ini is self explaining.
How to use it:
Execute the executable and select the layer from the menu you want to clean
What does it require:
The program requires administrative rights to run.
Nothing else, it's created in AutoIt and do not have any dependencies.
