Anytime I try to remove any files from GB-PVR's directory it always reinstalls them. I know this is a .NET thing (I think?) really, but is there anyway to get around this? There are plently of files I don't really need or want in there (eg: languages) and I always remove excess files anywhere on my computer.

Are you on vista? Vista has a way of doing that.
I'm not always right

This is a behaviour of the Windows Installer. I've never looked into whether there is a way to avoid this.

If you want too save you could try just overwrite with empty text files but change the name to match. Don't know if the Windows Installer is clever enough to check the file and not just the name...?

But to be honest how much do you hope to gain from deleting program files?
