So here is the Apache bin folder
Code:
ab.exe
ApacheMonitor.exe
dbmmanage.pl
htcacheclean.exe
htdbm.exe
htdigest.exe
htpasswd.exe
httpd.exe
libapr-1.dll
libapriconv-1.dll
libaprutil-1.dll
libeay32.dll
libhttpd.dll
libmysql.dll
logresolve.exe
openssl.exe
rotatelogs.exe
ssleay32.dll
wintty.exe

Anyone see anything I can delete?
I've already cleaned up the other dirs, even pimped out the config Cool

I know enough about PHP to know what I can and cannot delete.

As for MySQL... I know NOTHING about it, is there an explanation of everything in MySql root dir?

All this files are needed. But you should copy libmysql.dll from Mysql\bin to this folder. Because the one in apache\bin is mostly older than the one from mysql it self

ab.exe :: benchmark program, not needed on prod server but nice for testing.
ApacheMonitor.exe :: not really needed "net start apacheservice" works fine
dbmmanage.pl :: dbm password manager, can be delete if you don't use DBM password databases
htcacheclean.exe :: Clean the cache of mod_file_cache - I usually keep this one around
htdbm.exe :: is used together with dbmmanage.pl
htdigest.exe :: manager digest password files (same rule ad dbmmanager.pl)
htpasswd.exe :: text based password manager (same rule as dbmmanager.pl)
httpd.exe
libapr-1.dll
libapriconv-1.dll
libaprutil-1.dll
libeay32.dll
libhttpd.dll
libmysql.dll
logresolve.exe :: resolves IP addresses in logs to the DNS name - I keep this around but again not needed if you don't use it.
openssl.exe
rotatelogs.exe :: pipe logger to rotate logs every x days, hours... can be deleted if not used
ssleay32.dll
wintty.exe

All the once in bold can be removed without harm if you don't use them.
I usually keep the around unless i'm making a very very lightweight 64mb mobile version for a specific project.
