    It's just a misplaced text but the function is working and I will fix it in the next version.

    Can't do anything for that blank or junk tiles left-over as I don't know how to remove it from offline-image and also sometimes it does appears and sometimes not, so it's difficult to know for which apps it leaves a junk tile and when..

    So just un-pin it after the OS Installation.

    Hey bro,

    I made a new ISO with the 7.4 Toolkit but I still see lots of errors pertaining to sec.health. I thought this was supposed to have better cleanup this time.

    I didn't even integrate anything. no .NET Framework 3.5 or Windows updates, just removed the Windows Store Apps that I don't want, removed Windows Defender, cortana, and Home Group, then applies the changes and created the ISO

    I haven't updated the Remove Components to cleanup the registry/winsxs as it requires a lot of testing to keep the OS functioning without breaking.

    What kind of errors are you getting, is it like access denied or anything else? can you post a screenshot?

    Yeah, I would avoid the whole "Clean-Up" thing because in can prevent updates from applying properly or applying at all.

    The solution is:
    \Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\LayoutModification.xml
    I doing that.

    Removing packages without mum is not always ideal with MSMG Toolkit, NTLite and WinReducer.
    Ideal is testing MSMG Toolkit, NTLite and WinReducer, imitate and repair and create cmd and powershell script on removal packages without mum.
    I testing: create install.wim (MSMG, NTLite, WinReducer) and compare install.wim with Beyond Compare (BC). And compare reghives (software, components, etc.) wiht BC. And install and testing install.wim in VMware and repair error in cmd and powershell script.
    I edit install.wim only cmd and powershell script (elevate privileges with take-own.psm1) and my install.wim is corect in sfc and ScanHealth, and no errors in event viewer :)
    I also testing and compare Windows 10 Creators Update Bloatware Free Edition 5.3 created with NTLite full (thanks for iso, I'm not full NTLite, I only have free NTLite)(example: It would like to add Ceip (SQM) in MSMG also).

    I downloaded it from softpedia, but everywhere there is a newer 5.5 version created in MSMG.

    I don't get why people keep on publicly posting to other posts/forums with the biggest homebrew iso you will ever see?

    Because of homebrew iso (example created full NTLite) it is easier to improve MSMG Toolkit or individual cmd / powershell scripts.

    (Publicly) Posting links to a homebrew iso is just not allowed on MDL, if one is approved many will follow. Only official MSFT iso's are allowed.

    My fault, it's not the iso itself.

    It does link to the iso.

    A little more info on that, please? I need a default layout with either nothing pinned OR without corrupt-blank Store pin, but 0 pinned items would be best! This command in PowerShell "Export-StartLayout –path <path><file name>.xml" does not work.
