Announcing Availability of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Brandon:

This article gives a good explanation of how to enable additional options for Disk Cleanup:

HOWEVER - the Remove System Files option is not one of them  I followed the articles instructions and enabled just about everything but the size of my WINSXS folder did not change.  

There are several other articles that talk about the Remove System Files option, but for the life of me I can't find a way to make this option visible. (My system is WIn7-64 Home Premium.)  I'd really like to know hot to do this this since the size of WINSXS is a major issue for everyone who uses an SSD boot drive.

Thanks for whatever help you can provide on this.

PS: adding an SSD boot drive was the single biggest performance booster I've ever done.  I highly recommend making that upgrade for anyone who wants noticeably better overall system response time.
