ty for your answer, your assumption is right - x64 arch. also - i did remove in the predefined order and it did work perfectly fine with version 8.8, however with 9.0 the result on three different computers / hardware configurations stays eventually the same - 'setup could not configure windows to run on this computers hardware' but despite of that, i really dig your project, i'm a big fan of your work!
Dear MSMG, thank you for your answer. Looking forward to this update! And yeah, you do an awesome job, if I ever did not say that!
Since the Microsoft's new PSFX updates format won't get installed properly for some components if the WinSXS folder is cleanup, starting from v9.0 I have disabled WinSXS folder cleanup. Just need to find out which component is breaking the OS and it needs removing a set of components and installing the OS, then continue another set of components and again install the OS to see if it works.
it looks like you wanna say that it can have some problems with another langs? i use ja-JP also im same as mojo2979, fan of your project. you did very necessary thing. before i did this everything after install and manual (by hands only). but now i can just create iso one time and after install it so many times as i need. also after install my work remains maybe 15-20% of i did before. it very cool. hope to see here one day something big, like delete deep system trash to create mini ISO just with only conponents which needs for OSwork, like do some creators on trackers. thankyou
is the full list of components in the menu that you can remove, able to be done via lists? if so is there a full list somewhere, so we can just delete lines of what we want to keep and everything else gets removed? the templete don't seem to have everything especially advanced components section.
Hello, I noticed these 4 items were in the RemovePkgsList_Template.txt under Packs folder: Microsoft-Windows-ContentDeliveryManager-Package Microsoft-Windows-DesktopFileExplorer-Package Microsoft-Windows-Management-SecureAssessment-Package Microsoft-Windows-Store-Client-Package RemoveAppsList_W10_RS5_Template.txt has all the Windows 10 regular apps to use for reference but as for the system apps, they are not all there. I was wondering if anyone has a giant list for all the packages (the exact name) that can be put into the RemovePkgsList.txt? I understand there is a button to remove all but I would like to remove 95% of the items and keep some. Currently, the only method is to select each item individually. So I was hoping to create a RemovePkgsList.txt to filter the list to my need. If not, where can I start to determine that? Any help is much appreciated!

Yes I have same question as haremmon, can i remove some of the items in Advanced windows component & system apps menu but not all? in my case, i wanna remove all of system except SettingSync and for advanced -- IE,edge and smartscreen only (btw, will defender break if smartscreen is removed?)
FWIW, there are probably a lot of reasons for this error, but I did come across this myself. For me the cause was having additional disk drives connected at the time I did the install. I disconnected all other drives "cleaned" the drive using diskpart and it then installed. If you have more than one drive, it's worth a try. Just trying to help.
When tinkering with windows images, i usually apply dism /image:"offline_image_path" /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase Do you mean this is no longer advisable?
The component/package consists of two things one a Base package and an Language resource package for that Base package. Then the update package contains the updated component files/registry entries related to the Base package and it's language package. Using DISM to remove a Base package will remove the associated Language resource packages and also the updated package. The ToolKitHelper.exe for RS5 has been coded only to remove the base package and it's en-GB/US Language resource package, though the ToolKitHelper.exe removes the file/folder entries for all languages but the registry entries are removed only related to en-GB/en-US languages, also the updated component files/registry entries aren't removed. That's why I do suggest people to use the ToolKit to remove the component only for en-GB/en-US source images until the support is added for all languages and not to use the refreshed images.
The Remove Windows Components using the Package List is meant for removing the Component using the DISM and most of the Components present in the Remove Windows Components don't have a package name to remove using the DISM. The result of using the Remove Using Package List will be not same as the Remove Windows Components.
Don't know whether that's the exact cause or may be it's also one of the cause for that error, just need to find out.
