This should be simple, but I haven't found a way to make this stop happening. Visual Studio publishes a lot of localized DLLs - It appears there is German localization, Spanish localization, Italian localization, french localization, Japanese localization, Russian localization and Korean localization. I have an ASP.NET Web API ODATA application, and when I publish the project using Visual Studio 2017, I have these localized dll's taking up unnecessary space in the bin folder. My application only needs to support En-US. How can I make this change? Screenshot of published bin folder:

On the computer where you have the ASP.NET project open in Visual Studio, right-click the project in Solution Explorer, and choose Publish. If you have previously configured any publishing profiles, the Publish pane appears. Click New or Create new profile.
Get started. In Solution Explorer, right-click your project and choose Publish. If you're publishing this web app for the first time, next you see the Publish wizard. Visual Studio filters the list of destinations depending on the type of web app.
Here is what worked for me:
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Release|AnyCPU' "> add the line:<ExcludeFoldersFromDeployment>bin\ar;bin\cs;bin\de;bin\es;bin\fr;bin\he;bin\hi;bin\it;bin\ja;bin\ko;bin\nl;bin\pl;bin\pt;bin\ru;bin\tr-TR;bin\zh-Hans;bin\zh-Hant</ExcludeFoldersFromDeployment>
