Minimum files needed for a WinForm desktop application

[facreationz]

I have a Windows WinForm .NET Framework 4.8 x86 based application that currently uses the LiveCharts v0 library. I see a great progress has been made on v2 (currently 2.0.0.RC3 has been released).

But when I migrate my code to use this v2 prelease version, it adds so many extra files and data size to my application.
My app is bundled and deployed to several users and is regularly updated through online channels. The v2 charts have hugely increased file sizes (from 10mb package size to +100 mb). I can see several of these additional files created by v2 charts are not necessary for WinForm .NET 4.8 based application.

Is there a way to identify which files are absolutely needed for deployment? This discussion is a duplicate of #825 but since that topic is already 3 years old and things have changed so much since then, I figured lets start a new discussion on this topic.
