    This is something I've been working on lately that I wanted to share. I'm curious what people think. Is this helpful? Does it work for you? I'd love some feedback and ideas on other things that can be done to further slim down Radeon Software.

    Awesome.
    I don't use anything that comes with the drivers, other than the control panel.
    Recording, overlays and what not. I just don't.

    Right now, I have the Enterprise drivers (https://www.amd.com/en/support/kb/release-notes/rn-pro-win-20-q2-1) installed, and when using the Post Install section, I get this error:



    Input string was not in a correct format.
    Here is the full log.

    Edit:

    I found another bug. It seems that you aren't packing the 7z dll.

    Dropping the DLL from a 7z install I have into the 7-Zip folder of the slimmer seems to work just fine.

    I will give it a shot because I have been hoping someone would do this for a while. I may be a masochist as my system is stable and I just recovered from a major water cooler failure. New Windows 10 install. I have been building PCs for a long time. I thought there was a utility like this in the past. My PC is outdated and I want to avoid losing system resources to the Catalyst suite when all I really need is the driver. It his so bloated and features I used to use like Eyefinity and the color management either dont work or seem to do less. I play games, watch movies and listen to music. I may be a grumpy old man but there used to be "optional" features back in the day. Not everyone needs to stream. I use a pared down enterprise driver and disable as much crap as possible in the settings.

    Performance, stability and lower power consumption are what I want most. Sadly I play some games at lowest settings. Eliminating all the bloat actually makes a huge difference in games. I just got a new SSD and did my first W10 clean install which I should have done ages ago. My GPU is the reliable but dated R9 270 (can this be flashed to upgrade? I dont think so)

    Slight diversion here: I know this is the AMD forum but does anyone have opinions on the state of nvidia vs amd in terms of bloat? I bought a used RTX760 for $20 after the water cooler failed as I thought the GPU was toast for sure. Coolant was all over the R9 and it did't post I am tempted to score a RX 5500 XT. The R9 has been so reliable. I am AMD loyal. So I will test it out after I mirror my install. So many companies are forcing software on consumers we dont need. Supporting open-source projects and DIY driver suites is righteous work for people who cant upgrade every cycle. Thank you.

    Thanks for the feedback and logging. Beta3 is out there which should fix those two issues. I'll have to try out the enterprise drivers sometime and see what they have too.

    Great tool, a little oasis in the Radeon third party tools desert :)
    = 1.0.0-beta 3 =
    It would be great if we could have a small description of different functions as a tooltip or other way which would fit in the UI.
    Option to repack the modified installer for later use or on other machines could be good too.
    Needs a feedback of when it's done modifying installer so we can proceed (for now it just stays on Modifying installer in the bottom left corner)
    Hangs if the output extraction folder already exist (missing overwrite switch for 7zip)

    I have fixes committed for a few of these (really need to work on getting automated builds too). It's not easy for users to know what to do (I suck at UIs), so I'm thinking about making a wizard that walks you through the process that is also able to provide additional validation along the way. I'm got a basic flow going already and seems a lot better already. It should provide a better user experience.

    I also installed the Pro Enterprise drivers. There's not much different except for additional services. I went through all the inf files for both driver types and include them all now (except the main display driver).

    nice 1.0.0.4 fixes the only issue i had with it which was the hang when modifying the driver.

    all i need from the driver is the display driver and the ability to change settings, here is what i took out and it works flawlessly. I disabled the services in post install aswell as i dont use relive for anything.

    Selecting display drivers and amd settings is enought for Wattman to work? And features like RIS?

    yes, you only need the display driver and AMD settings and all the graphics settings RIS, tesselation Wattman etc. work normally.

    I'd also suggest going into device manager after the install and uninstalling the AMDXE and crash defender drivers, there under system devices.

    I finally looked into what was causing the checkbox selection to reset when modifying the installer. Stupid WPF event routing/bubbling...

    Why would you want that? It's not something that's always running. It's just a stand-alone executable to report bugs and closes when it's done.

    Seems to still be working ok (1.0.0-beta.6) with 20.11.2 drivers even with a lot of new stuff added in them, haven't tested thoroughly but so far so good.
    Any news from the dev on this matter ?

    Sorry for the lack of updates, work has been super busy as everyone wants software that enables working from home. I want to get an update out soon. The current version should work just fine with new things in the new drivers so far. I'm part of the Vanguard program, so I catch new stuff before it goes public anyways.

    I'm not quite sure what to do about disabling the host services. I pulled that out for now since it causes high CPU usage with RadeonSoftware.exe.

    New Features

    • Added .NET 5.0 build target
    • Added .NET version to logging and About tab
    Changes to Existing Functionality

    • Removed the option to disable host services to avoid CPU issues with RadeonSoftware
    Defects Fixed

    • Fixed a bug when running a post install action when no driver software is installed
    • Wait for RadeonSoftware and host services to end when running post install actions
    • Fixed a bug that would delete RSServCmd's backup when running post install when it was disabled
    Other Changes

    • Added static code analyzers, addressed issues and set treat warnings as errors to true
    • Updated GitHub Actions to address security issue with setting environmental variables
    Dependencies Updated

    • MahApps.Metro 2.2.0 -> 2.3.4
    • MahApps.Metro.IconPacks.FontAwesome 4.4.0 -> 4.8.0
