Hi,

in my quest for the smallest footprint, I'm trying to disable the
diskcopy.dll file which manages the Floppy disk coping process. it takes
more then 1MB and is totally useless...

but I can't find the component that calls it. now I just manually delete it
before deploying..

anyone have any idea? and also in general, how to search for a file/dll in
components?

thanks,

YaronM
 
Yaron,

What you want to do is create a filter in TD. Click the funnel next to the
word filter located just above the component pane in Target Designer. Choose
New, then name the filter, and choose "Component contains the following
file" in the Filter Rules. Under filter description couble click where
indicated and type in the name of the file your looking for. Click OK, then
click Apply Filter. If there are any results they will be listed in the
component pane of TD. HTH,

p.s. Search Google, or the help docs for more information on creating
filters. I may have missed a step!
 
Great tip!!

thanks!

Yaron,

Just a small add to Brad's tip: make sure your TD minimum visibility set to
<200 since the component that contains the diskcopy.dll - "Shell Namespace
Extensions" under "Software : System : User Interface : Shells : Windows
Shell" category - has a visibility level set to 200.
