It's for live systems, for offline the specified file or folder doesn't exist in the image. I have added a tweak to remove all pinned items from Start for Windows 11 in the upcoming version of Toolkit, do use it when it's released.
@ingviowarr i'll be very carefull when using this tool. will run a windows vm for testing and make a snapshot before tweaking my thanks for the resources and links you are a good man sir Majid
hmm since the release of Windows 8 just hate the UWP applications and really is getting worse and worse you're correct...
Hi MsMg I have used 19044 to LSTC 2021 so far the returns after new cu, i have seen is SnippingTool, WindowsMixedReality is removing every time toolkit runs twice or more
No it is not recommend Dism, dont require a special build version (MS Way) Toolkit does, but can remove much more Windows 10 Client v1809 (v10.0.17763.2300) Windows 10 Client v1903 (v10.0.18362.1) & v1903/v1909 (v10.0.1836x.1916) Windows 10 Client v2004 (v10.0.19041.1) & v2004/v20H2/v21H1/v21H2 (v10.0.1904x.1348) Windows 11 Client v21H2 (v10.0.22000.1/v10.0.22000.318)
I couldn't find any links, neither in the beginning of the thread, nor in the README.txt. Where are the links to download the packages? There are no IE11 packages on the MEGA either.
Yes since Windows 10 v1903 and later, the removed components do get returned expect the Windows Apps. Do you mean Toolkit is removing Snipping Tool and Windows Mixed Reality twice?

About Internet Explorer - it's not available, am I doing something wrong?
Download and copy the appx and dependency files to Toolkit's <Packs\Apps\w10> folder and use the Integrate Microsoft Inbox Apps in Integrate Menu to integrate Store and Xbox. See GettingApps.txt inside Toolkit's <Packs\Apps> folder for how to download apps files.
@MSMG Suggestion for Server 2022 LTSC. Perhaps it makes sense (for this OS) to apply "Disable Windows Features using Features List" (DisableFeaturesList.txt) before "Remove" steps ? Server 2022 is a different OS, where larger number of components can be deactivated by standard OS methods, in contrast of other editions. For example, Defender can be deactivated with a single checkbox, via "Turn Windows features on or off" ("Server Manager" will be launched for this). After applying "Disable Windows Features using Features List" the time is coming for "Remove" option (Toolkit method) for further cleaning and dirty hacks ( love this part ). Just something to think about and make removal part for Server 2022 more smooth and probably in more correct manner. (This is more of a question than a statement). Or does it matter only for deployed OS, but not for Toolkit?
