add things to a stipped down nlite XP install?

I've done an nlite install, and most things are spot on, however I need disk cleanup and a few command prompt commands which are missing. I guess I removed too much.

Is there a was I can install these without having to reinstall windows?

Don't think so.

they'll be easy to restore (not sure about disc cleanup, should be simple though)

the commandline tools are just standalone exe's from system32

list what you need mate, i'll put them on my site

Thanks.

I just need the disk cleanup utility, and I'm also after a few command line commands too, the only ones I can find that are missing right now are "net" and "netstat".

The thing is, I already have an unmodified XP install disk, so could I just "expand" copy the missing commands into my system32 dir?

yup, do that

get all the ones you need, put them in say c:\files, install 7zip, select all the files, right click and 'extract here'

then copy them to s32

cleanmgr.ex_ is disk cleanup, not sure if nlite removes anything else (maybe dll's) for that

nice, I've done that and it works. Thanks.
