    Good question!
    From the point of view of the order of the menus and considering that the MSMG said to customize the ISO following the order of the menus.
    I assume drivers must be entered before integrating updates.

    But I also think it's worth testing to see if the result is satisfactory. And give feedback to the community.

    Regarding the drivers to integrate, I believe it is good to export with dism and import with dism.

    I implemented this in IMCK, it makes a backup of the host machine's drivers, and you could integrate it into the ISO, but I never tested it again. It worked on w10, on w11 I only tested it on the 22000, there in the first builds.

    Hmm, I thinking it may not all be me.

    If I ONLY remove the privacy items (via the remove option, all privacy items, without using the removepkglist) I lose the ability to do an inplace upgrade.

    Is something up with MSMG v13.6 itself? It's got to be me. What am I doing wrong?

    UPDATE: I did the following:
    1. Mounted the source image (re-extracted)
    2. No changes to the source other than remove the non "n" version
    3. Applied the changes
    4. Created the ISO
    Result: inplace upgrade option was greyed out. (issue I'm trying to resolve).

    Update 2:
    Repeated the last procedure except this time, for some unknown reason, I went with kept the non N version and removed the N version.

    Result: IT WORKED. Removed pretty much everything using removepkglist except certain key items.(windows update, manualsetup, easytranfer, etc) but all privacy, and a lot of other things.

    So if anyone has any similar issues (can't do an inplace upgrade), you may want to try using the "non N'" version of LTSC 2021 as your base.

    Thanks to all who responded and hope this helps someone else.

    I have to check in my notes if the component responsible for Cloud Content is ClouExperienceHost.


    EDIT:
    I got confused.

    Please check ContentDeliveryManager component. If you don't removed it, don't apply Disable3rdPartyApps tweak for testing purpose.

    Hopefully @MSMG will fix this issue in upcoming build:)
    Nevertheless, is it safe to use RemoveAppsList.txt together with above RemovePkgsList.txt

    Microsoft.BingWeather
    Microsoft.DesktopAppInstaller
    Microsoft.GetHelp

    If yes? Then, in what order, RemovePkgsList.txt first then RemoveAppsList.txt or vice versa.

    Kind Regards

    The purpose of removing SystemApps like CloudExperienceHost, Edge, etc., is to prevent apps with telemetry from getting deployed & to skip OOBE dialogues for privacy and user account, I used below unattend.xml.

    What I do is add start the Toolkit, impport the DVD folder, integrate the apps, and save it and make an ISO. No removal going on, but it still doesn't show all the Inbox Apps @Yanta listed.

    Do you have to do something proactively in order to keep the components, like select for them to be integrated or is it enough to just not remove them?

    I haven't removed anything yet and are just trying to get Inbox Apps properly integrated before I start customizing and removing stuff.

    Remove Apps List is menu 8 of the component removal menus.

    There is no necessity.

    Regarding RemovePkgsList, populated with the contents of the DISM template :
    I have already done removal tests after using with content from the ToolkitHelper template.

    The only one that Toolkithelper doesn't completely remove is CEIP. But I think this could be something strategic that @MSMG itself must have maintained for some compatibility. If not, with this information posted, he will certainly check and make the necessary corrections.

    @haris_mdlf69,

    If that's not it, I don't know what could be. But it was with ContentDeliveryManager that I had this problem in W10. I integrated the MS Games Pack and the shortcuts did not appear in the start menu. Not even on W11 22000.
    Recently I started to remove the ContentDeliveryManager, and I didn't realize to check this in the tests. Since 22621.1778 I have not put any new updates into daily use.
    Only tests on VMs.

    Better to wait for an update from @MSMG regarding this issue as neither I remove Content Delivery Manager package nor I use Disable3rdPartyApps option from Apply Tweaks section in Customize part.

    After mounting my DVD I go to Remove, 3,1,C and turn off all compatibility options.
    Then I integrate some 10G NIC drivers, Windows Features, the latest SSU/CCU and then go to Inbox apps.
    They are all off by default so I select the ones I want to integrate and then Start integrating Windows Apps.
    Do my removals, apply a couple of tweaks and apply the changes and build the ISO.

    I don't think I'm doing anything out of the ordinary, just following the menus top to bottom.

    Just tried following that exact recipe, but as last time, only Dolby Audio Extensions, HEIF Image Extensions, OpenCL™ and OpenGL® Compability Pack, Web Media Extensions and Webp Image Extensions is integrated. None of the others. Tested the Toolkit on both a Windows 10 Pro computer and a Windows 11 Home computer with same result. Tried using the appx and appxpackage files MSMG has uploaded, and downloaded my own, but no changes.

    Think I'll just wait til the Toolkit is updated and try it again then. If it doesn't work then either, then I'll just finish making the ISO and integrate everything after first boot.

    TESTED: Apparently the answer is you have to start from scratch, at least if you are trying to add AMD drivers to an .ISO that already has Intel drivers. :(
