Tried installing 1809 with v9, created USB stick using MSMG. Doesn't appear to have done anything. All the apps I removed are still there even after clean install. Installing on surface pro 6. This was with R5 17763.107
You need to give more details regarding HOST OS, Source OS, Version, Edition and Language and the Steps followed with the list of components you removed.
- Refreshed Images aren't supported/suggested. - Did you used the Start.cmd to run the ToolKit? Did you followed the steps given in readme.txt? - Is the Image more than one edition and are you using an EI.cfg or an Autounattend.xml file?
Used start.cmd with run as administrator. I am using the iso downloaded from techbench. Selecting windows 7 pro as the edition. Doing complete clean install using boot from USB. I am using neither of those files.
Question; not clear on order. Calling ToolKitHelper.exe for each component from script run within nsudo.exe -U:T -P:E cmd. Starting with LTSC image 17763.1, apply cu then remove components or remove components then apply cu. Not seeing much difference in size of install.wim after removing just about all components, should I see a difference?

Figured out issue. Surface pro 6 was running win10 home. I was creating iso for win10 pro, as that’s what the host computer was running. Changing it to win10 home fixed the issue. The error while removing apps is unrelated, however.
@MSMG - Thank you sir, BTW the last version of MSMG which works with WIN 8.1 is 8.7. From version 8.8 onwards the remove feature fails to work in WIN 8.1. Will your future versions work with WIN 8.1 ?
That is the plan for most of my systems but 2 that I manage upgraded to 1809 automatically. So far things seem fine but I was curious if anyone has experienced problems.
FOD? SXSExpander is pretty much like WIM Tweak stuff and I've done it before, but now it keeps telling me I need Admin rights, even though I have them...
Why do I have to run certain things as an Admin if I have a Admin rights? What do I have to remove with MSMG ToolKit to not have this problem?
