    Is There Anything that Can Be Done to Minimize the DriverStore?


    Hi all


    Since it seems I have reached the limit of what can be done to minimize WinSxS
    ( How to Reduce the Size of the C:\Windows\WinSxS\ Folder? )

    The next folder which looks exaggeratedly big, is C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\
