11:45:36 350 system32 Files I Do Not Delete...By Feature Part 1 |
There
are undoubtedly more important reasons for not deleting some of these
files, as many files do have multiple uses. The reasons given here why
I do not delete these 350 files are just the first good reasons I
bumped into. If I couldn't boot to Windows without a particular file,
there didn't seem much need to look for other reasons why I should keep
it. The same would apply if a Windows feature I use wouldn't work
without a particular file.
You will read below about the files
necessary to watch Yahoo Movie Trailers. (I'm just using this as one
example.) This does not mean those are the only files necessary
to watch Yahoo Movie Trailers. It certainly goes without saying you
will be needing some Internet Explorer files...just to be able to get to the Yahoo Movie Trailers.
Just
as I had Internet Explorer setup before I uncovered which files were
necessary for Microsoft Update, the files listed as necessary to watch
Yahoo Movie Trailers, I uncovered after I had certain other Windows
features setup on my system. For all I know, you may need a Microsoft
Update file to watch Yahoo Movie Trailers, but since I had Microsoft
Update setup first... Well, you can see what I'm getting at.
It
is highly probable too that some files necessary to watch Yahoo Movie
Trailers are also needed by other Windows features. You yourself may
delete one of the Yahoo Movie Trailer files, thinking you never watch
them anyway, and might then discover something else on your system
doesn't work.
This principle applies to many many Windows
features. Files have multiple uses. It's that simple, and that
complicated. This is the very reason I am not a proponent of removing
whole Windows components using file-removal programs. Files need to be
removed with precision.

C:\WINDOWS\Offline Web Pages folder stores downloaded Webpages for
offline availability. By default, within the folder is the Web
Document, "My Current Home Page". When you click on it, you will be
taken to your Home Page. The URL you will then see in your Explorer
address bar should read "about:Home". When you right-click on "My
Current Home Page" and select Properties, you will see the options for
Offline Synchronization.
When you remove the webcheck.dll, the
options in Properties will no longer be available, and you will not be
able to get to "about:Home". The "My Current Home Page" will become a
desktop.ini. The Offline Web Pages folder itself will, after a time,
lose its default icon, becoming a plain, manila folder, as any other.
Or, it could lose its folder appearance entirely, and become a bland,
file icon, like that of an .NLS file.
Additional Note: With the
arrival of Internet Explorer 7, in addition to the webcheck.dll, you
will need in place the "webcheck.dll.mui" in the
C:\WINDOWS\system32\en-US folder in order to open "My Current Home Page
Properties," and to be able to get to "about:Home".
---------------------------------
WINHTTP.DLL.....(Windows HTTP Services). Uncovered by Level, one of our forum members: The winhttp.dll is also needed to open Wireless Network Setup Wizard in Control Panel.
---------------------------------
WINSCARD.DLL....Microsoft Smart Card API
WLNOTIFY.DLL....Common DLL to receive Winlogon notifications
You need both the WINSCARD.DLL and the WLNOTIFY.DLL for these two functions: (Uncovered by one of our forum members, XiRoX.)
1.)
When you right-click on a shortcut and select Properties from the
context menu, "Find Target" is one of the buttons you will see in the
opening dialog box. When clicked, the folder where the target file is
located will open.
2.) When searching with your Search
Assistant, should you right-click on a file displayed in the results
panel, and then select "Open Containing Folder" from the context menu,
the folder where the file is located will open.
So, you set your file-removal program to take out Microsoft Update. ...Oops!
I've
said it countless times throughout this guide, many files have more
than one purpose on a system. That is what makes deleting files with
precision so difficult...and so important. And that is why removing
whole components with file-removal programs is something I choose not
to do.
---------------------------------
WTSAPI32.DLL....(Windows Terminal Server SDK APIs). Needed both to view the Automatic Updates tab in System Properties, and by Microsoft Update. Also needed to enter System Properties by right-clicking on My Computer and selecting Properties without receiving this error: This application has failed to start because WTSAPI32.DLL was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this. However, System Properties will open after clicking OK on the error message even without this file present.
WUAPI.DLL.......Windows Update Client API
wuapi.dll.mui...Windows Update Client API
WUAUCLT.EXE.....(Windows Update). An auto-update client.
wuauclt1.exe....Windows Update AutoUpdate Client
wuaucpl.cpl.....(Automatic Updates Control Panel). Automatic Updates Control Panel applet.
wuaucpl.cpl.mui...Automatic Updates Control Panel
wuaueng.dll.....Windows Update AutoUpdate Engine
wuaueng.dll.mui...Windows Update Agent
WUAUENG1.DLL....Windows Update AutoUpdate Engine
wuauserv.dll....(Windows Update AutoUpdate Service). Main Service file for Automatic Updates.
WUCLTUI.DLL.....Windows Update Client UI Plugin
wucltui.dll.mui...Windows Update Client UI Plugin
wupdmgr.exe.....Windows Update Manager for NT
WUPS.DLL........Windows Update client proxy stub
wups2.dll.......Windows Update client proxy stub 2

---------------------------------------
Windows Media Player
See PART 9 under Windows Media Player Files for Windows Media Player files I delete. You will also find some additional Windows Media Player files I delete in PART 4 under C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player.
avifil32.dll....(Microsoft
AVI File support library). If you download from the Megaupload site
(and most likely if you upload to it too) you are going to need the avifil32.dll, along with the MFC42.DLL (DirectX file).
DBGHELP.dll.....(Windows Image Helper). Absolutely needed by Windows Media Player 11.
Without it, when you click on something to play, a message tells you to
re-install Windows Media Player. Also needed to install WMP11.
mcicda.dll......(MCI driver for cdaudio devices). Needed by Windows Media Player burning and ripping processes.
MFPLAT.dll......(Media Foundation Platform). To even open Windows Media Player 11.
msvfw32.dll.....(Microsoft Video for Windows DLL). Needed to open Windows Media Player.
WINMM.DLL.......MCI API DLL
WMASF.DLL.......Windows Media ASF DLL
WDMAUD.DRV......(WDM Audio driver mapper). Needed by Windows Media Player. Also needed to hear sound in Windows Pinball Game.
WMP.DLL.........(Windows Media Player Core). Needed to open Windows Media Player.
wmpdxm.dll......(Windows Media 6.4 Player Shim). Needed by too many Websites with streaming media to not keep this file installed on my system. The wmpdxm.dll and the msdxm.ocx (a DirectX file) work together. The wmpdxm.dll is also needed to play media files with Media Player 6.4 (mplayer2.exe).
wmpeffects.dll..(Windows Media Player Effects). Needed for visual effects while playing music with Windows Media Player 11.
WMPLOC.DLL......(Windows Media Player). Needed to open Windows Media Player.
wmpps.dll.......(Windows Media Player Proxy Stub Dll). Needed
to rip music CDs using Windows Media Player 11 with file-name
information intact, such as the name of the artist, album, song title.
Without the wmpps.dll file present, the file-name information it will
read and write as "01 Unknown Artist Track 1". Also needed to burn .WMA files to a CD using WMP11.
wmpshell.dll....(Windows Media Player Launcher). Without
the wmpshell.dll present WMP cannot remember that it's supposed to open
your media files. The Open With dialog box will open instead, asking
you to choose a program you want to use to open the file. Even if
you put a tick in "Always use the selected program to open this kind of
file," WMP will not remember, and you'll have to do it all over again
the next time you click to open a media file.
