Default New OS - Deleting Useless Files - 07-06-2007, 02:14 AM

Whenever a new OS comes out, I prefer to clean it up by deleting all the languages I don't use, the sample video/images, PTT, MyFavs, that ugly Rogers theme, etc before loading the OS. This makes the process a bit faster and it's also cleaner because if you delete the preloaded images after installing the OS, you still have the filenames showing with the red X icons where the images used to be.

Anyway, I got tired of doing it manually and wrote a batch script to automate this for me. Basically, all it does is locate the OS installation directory and clean all the "crap".

I was wondering if anyone was interested in a copy, and if so, I could customize the script to add prompts so you can pick what you want to delete.

Update: New version coming soon once I get back to my desktop PC. Original version still posted below.
