    I've tried version 9.1 with RS4 image and when I select option 4 (Remove), it doesn't show me options to remove stuff but rather gives me the same options I'd get if I press 5.
    Anyone elese get this issue?
    I wasn't getting this issue with version 8.8

    Microsoft.Services.Store.Engagement is a dependency pack required for SolitaireCollection but not for Store.

    The ToolKit installs these dependency files by default for all components along with AdverstingXaml, VC Framework and VC Runtimes

    Right now I have tested with Client editions only, need to check for Server.

    Yes it will take time if there are updates integrated.

    StickyNotes requires Store App to function and In the current version I have put a check to retain the shared files if the store is removed.

    Will again test the feature.

    That's normal to show 20% when you are doing the cleanup for the second time.

    Using /ResetBase will not completely remove the superseded components for that you need to use the below tweak which will breaks the Reset PC function.

    Code:
    Reg add "HKLM\TK_SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SideBySide\Configuration" /v "DisableResetbase" /t REG_DWORD /d "0"

    Use v8.8 for W7-W10 RS4 component removal.

    Use /StartComponentCleanup to clean up the superseded components and reduce the size of the component store.

    Use /ResetBase to reset the base of superseded components, which can further reduce the component store size.

    @MSMG Sir, I follow this method for Win10 RS5 LTSC x64 as instructed by your goodself, but while performing "Cleanup source image" step, I get only 20% complete. Is this normal ? Thanks.

    (1) Extract ISO to DVD folder
    (2) Select Source Image from DVD folder
    (3) Integrate DirectX 9.0C
    (4) Cleanup the Source Image
    (5) Remove all desired Windows Apps & Components
    (6) Customize
    (7) Cleanup the Source Image
    (8) Integrate Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Feature
    (9) Apply & Save Changes to Source Images
    (10) Re-Build Source Images
    (11) Convert WIM image to ESD image
    (12) Create the ISO

    Love this! Would have loved for the remove section to allow us to input more than one character at a time, because it is slow and tedious to always get sent back to root. Would have loved to input for example "A,B,D,G....etc"!

    As long as the message "...successfully..." appears under the bars, it's ok.

    And it doesn't perform much after integrating dx9c, that won't superseed any components that can be delta compressed. Just once at the end, is enough, and only when nothing has set the pending flag (in your scenario right before enabling dotnetfx3).

    Installed OS on 2 computers and forget to do this on both of them. :D Should I do this now anyway, even after I installed and configured a lot of programs already?

    Yes you can, it will delta compress all superseded components and decrease the footprint of the installed windows. The amount of the decrease in size will be depending on the amount of superseded components.

    Run in an elevated cmd:
    Code:
    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup

    I did use toolkit 8.x for win8.1 and work very well.
    I need to use it, suppose ver 9.x, for include updates in windows server 2019, but immediately after chose "source" and indexes toolkit app crash.
    Maybe do not support windows server?

    That's because of the '(' ')' in the Windows Server Image Name/Description the ToolKit gets terminated.

    The command
    Code:
    ........ del /f /q rd /q /s ........
    have 4 occurrences at line no. at 20146, 20160, 20176, 20189 under
    section, are not working as expected because the rd command becoming parameter to del command which tries to delete rd as file and gives could not find ........\rd error if /q parameter is removed.

    Do we need to remove all files as well as folder inside
    folder?

    MSMG: ok to use refreshed iso of 1809 now (or in the next version with fixes)? or to use vanilla 1809 still?
