Hi,

i've deleted files from the folders
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System
by mistake & i've highly tweaked & customized
my os & don't want to redownload the entire
setup & risk to lose any customization

It would be very nice if someone could upload his
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System
folder & subfolders to mediafire or another
file sharing site & share the link :)

Wont work I am afraid. First are you 32 bit or 64?

Second they have to be registered and the date, file size, and name , plus path have to be the same.

You dont have to do a new install, ou can do a repair install.

I will bet the missing files are already backed up in winsxs

A full repair install is all that you can do - the only other option is a reformat.
You will then need to repeat your strangling^h^h^h^h^h^h^h optimisation of the OS - I suggest you take copious backups along the way, this time.

effectively, it's all i can do as an invasive workaround, if nobody having win8 x86 is willing to help me by zipping those files which doesn't take a lot of time, or if nobody owns the x86 version, then i'm done.

The content of those folders will vary depending on your machine and what has been installed - no-one else's files are going to be any use to you.

As others have said there is not way to "give" you the files.
