I wish I loved Chrome and FF enough to do that. Removal of Edge and IE would be ideal but I use IE a little and Edge from time to time.
Got it, followed the instruction on the first page and the errors won't come up if I remove Windows Defender and SmartScreen at last. This test was done just to test removing components. Thank you very much. If I integrate updates (both non whd) KB4054022 (servicing stack) and kb405451 than I get an error by removing Windows Quick Assist App Package. It says access denied, another process is using the file. Will try it with integration of just one update again. Maybe I just use the blank iso with removed components and will install cumulativ and servicing stack updates after the regular windows installation is finished. Edit: Thought toolkit hangs but after I've written this text there come another error. Windows Take Test App couldn't be found.
How can I remove Biometrics and Location? Also, I removed Telemetry but Winaero Tweaker says it isn't disabled.
Your path C:\Toolkit_8.0 I suspect the period in the path could be adding to your problems (just like how you cannot have spaces in your path). Try something more simple such as c:\toolkit OR c:\toolkit8 for example.

@Tiger-1 Okay,Thank you! The internet is the maximum !! America for Americans !!! developers, developers, developers, developers, developers, developers
Thank you for this. I am testing this now and will report if I have any problems. In v7.9 there was an option (option 4 then 3) "Remove Default Metro Apps Association" that I would use after removing all the metro apps. Why has this been removed? Does v8.0 now remove the associations automatically?
@MSMG I did the test with the new version 8.0, on "Windows 10.0.16299.15 italian" and I find that there are the same errors as for version 7.9. These are my removals: 4 - 3 - 2 4 - 3 - 2 - A 4 - 3 - 2 - B 4 - 3 - 2 - C 4 - 3 - 2 - E 4 - 3 - 2 - F 4 - 3 - 2 - G 4 - 3 - 2 - K 4 - 3 - 2 - L DISM error 4 - 3 - 2 - M DISM error Changing the removal order everything works: 4 - 1 - 4 4 - 3 - 1 4 - 3 - 2 4 - 3 - 2 - A 4 - 3 - 2 - B 4 - 3 - 2 - C 4 - 3 - 2 - E 4 - 3 - 2 - G 4 - 3 - 2 - L 4 - 3 - 2 - M and finally 4 - 3 - 2 - F 4 - 3 - 2 - K Why not change the list in the ToolKit.cmd, I think it is the solution of the problems, changing the order of removal, even for 4-1-4 "Windows People Experience", which are those that break the DISM. P.S Sorry for English but I wrote with Google Translator

Still unable to add language packs. MSMG every time states (paraphrasing) "file cannot be found, please place file in [langcode] folder". I've tried making a folder with a given language code, I've tried renaming the .cab file to just the language code (though from what I can tell reading MSMG Toolkit's code, it should be able to read a naming scheme such as microsoft-windows-languagefeatures-basic-bn-in-package_679f41a31fa39e91da733edba47cc8e3cd8013d4.cab). I've also tried to add language packs via MSMG's update feature, but that didn't work either (iirc the error message was that no update files could be found). I can add language packs to my images just fine via the regular Dism /image:C:\Users\SysAdmin\Desktop\ToolKit-v7.9\Mount\Install /LogPath:C:\DismLogs\AddLangPack.log /Add-Package /PackagePath: command, so absolutely no clue where the fault lies in MSMG Toolkit's code, but that's a chore which I had hoped to avoid via MSMG Toolkit. Also, I wish MSMG had an 'all of the above' option when adding language packs, so that the user could add multiple or all language packs in the langpack directory in one go.
