View 5 RepliesURL...How do I disable all the non-essential components in the Photoshop CS6 installer?

I already found the payloads/Media_db.db sqlite 3 database and wiped the Dependency Data table. This goes a long way - unlike CS5, which was a maze of hidden xml configs and sqlite databases, for CS6 just wiping this single table will give the user full control over what the installer will put in the computer. With the dependencies wiped, we can now see all the stuff it's actually going to install:

Bridge (normal and x64) - 187 and 262 MBCMaps (normal and x64) - 7.2 and 7.2 MBCSXS Extensions - 1.3MBCSXS Infrastructure - 6.8MBColor - photoshop, EU, JA, NA - 1.5, 2.1, 3.0, 2.5MBVideo profiles - 4.7KBDynamic Link Media Server - 96MBDynamicLink Support - 6.1MBExtendScript Toolkit - 19MBExtension Manageer - 16MBFonts recommended (normal and x64) - 110 and 110MB (why are there x86 and x64 versions? more of an open question than one that really needs an answer, but this is not how fonts work. There are no separate x86 and x64 flavoured OpenType fonts)Fonts required (normal and x64) - 123 and 123MBHunspell Linguistics Plugin (normal and x64) - 181 and 181MBLinguistics (normal and x64) - 46 and 46MBMini Bridge (normal and x64) - 4.0MBPDF Library Files (normal and x64) - 75 and 75MBPhotoshop (normal and x64) - 486 and 563MBPhotoshop Support - 9.4MBPlayer for Embedding 3.3 (normal and x64) - 21 and 26MBSwitchboard 2.0 - 1.1MBType Support (normal and x64) - 6 and 6MBWinsoft Linguistics Plugin (normal and x64) - 8.2 and 8.5MBXMP Panels - 4.9MBColorCommonSetCMYK - 13MBColorCommonSetRGB - 8.6KBCamera Profiles Installer - 285MBMSVC++2005 redist.

Some of these things we really want installed (Photoshop, CMaps, XMP panels, Type Support and required fonts and color profiles are pretty much the minimal set required for a functional Photoshop installation), but some of these things really have no right to be silently installed. There's a good gigabyte of nonsense that someone who just wants Photoshop has no need for. Denying them the option to deselect these things during installation is a bit evil (whatever happened to the 'advanced' or 'custom' installation option?

unselecting all components indicates that the installation will required 0.0KB on disk. However, selecting Photoshop CS6 x64, which indicates its size is 563MB, results in an installation that requires 677MB on disk. Similar things happen for other components; CMaps is 7.2MB, but when you select it, it suddenly requires 121MB on disk.
Â
I want to control exactly what lands on my disk. So: how do I find out what these secret things are that are not listed after wiping the dependency data so that I can explicitly pick individual components? Which additional steps are required to reveal the hidden dependencies that will apparently still be installed, or aren't factored into the size indication for the various components? how do I make the installer NOT determine that "this is not a genuine installer, you may have a counterfeit product".

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to know how to install this plug-in from my photoshop CD. I follow all the steps, but still have a problem when I open up PSCS -- error message saying that some kind of .dll file cannot be found. I unzip the file (I think) and move the folder to the "plug-ins" folder in Photoshop program file.
I am able, however, to open photoshop despite that error message, but I don't see the effect under Filter>Render, where it says it will be. Am I missing an actual installation step and if so, where does it tell me to actually install the 3D filter? I had to make a cube for a class I'm taking and I made it, but freehand and a lot of transforming.
I am trying to locate a third party plugin for PhotoShop that was described to me by someone who had seen a website on it but did not remember the URL. Supposedly the manufacturer of the plugin had contacted the makers of a number of digital cameras and had incorporated profiles of each of them in the software, so that many of the problems of digital imaging (noise, grain, etc) were easily corrected with one click.

The plugins installed fine and I can open and use them in photoshop. However, when I click on "Ok" to apply the filter in photoshop, it shows as applied in the history states but it hasnt actually applied it to the photo.
The graphics cards is an ATI radeon HD 3650 and seems to be recognised by CS4 and am using open GL.

View 2 Replies View Relatedbeen using PhotoShop for mabye a year and a half and was just wondering what plugins people here used, and what kind of work you used them in (website graphics, logos, abstract art, etc)
heres what i usually like to use..
KPT7 - if ya dont know and have never used these u dont know what your missing.. espically hypertiling and fraxflame
Master Blaster - great free color plugins.. come in yellow, green, red, blue, violet.. 3 filters in for each color (hue tint and background) plus 3 mixer plugs which mix RGB in really odd ways..
Flaming Pear - Flood, a really cool water plugin... Lunar Cell - Makes planets and moon like objects. Solar Cell - makes stars and suns.. I haven't really used too many other plugs from these guys but im sure they all rock..
I've been using this product for a few years and only a few months ago I re-installed it on Windows 7 and a few days ago I closed it and it stopped working right when it says "Scanning for Plug-Ins". I haven't changed anything with the product. While I had it installed on the D-drive (The C and D got mixed up) it hadn't had a problem until a few days after continually hearing that the C: drive was full (leading to mass deletions of unused programs and files). Just today I had fixed the problem of the drives and the program had the same problem. I've tried the multiprocessor plug-in, uninstalling and reinstalling it, There are only a few oddities I can say happened during the reinstallation, it was unable to activate.

I am looking to build a good collection of Photoshop Plug-ins. Particularly image manipulation ones. I already have the Alien Skin suite and the three from Berg Design (peel off white, grey to white and grey to black). I am looking for high end professional ones. No amateur looking ripple effect or lame edge treatments.
