Since I do test with a plain image without updates, I had to use the cleanup image twice once before and once after the component removal otherwise the cleanup image would give error. But if you integrate updates then you can use the cleanup image only once before applying the image.
If you are happy with the below method, then I shall use this for future RS5 images. Spoiler Extract ISO (1 > 3) Select source (1 > 1) (also mount boot and recovery images) Integrate Win32 calculator (3 > 3 > B) Remove all metro apps (4 > 1 > 1 > 8) Remove Onedrive, People, Connect, Skype (4 > 1 > 2 > H/J/K/P) Remove Store, Xbox, Game bar, Xbox ID (4 > 1 > 3 > 1/5/6/7) Apply updates (3 > 4 > 2 > 1 > 3) Cleanup (6 > 1) Tweaks for Task View, App Downloads, Photo Viewer (5 > 5 > 2/4/7) Apply changes to image (6 > 2) Rebuild (6 > 1) Convert WIM to ESD (2 > 4) Make ISO (7 > 1)

Yes I have changed the order for the next version with first component removal next integrate updates and then image cleanup.
BioEnrollment package for what integration or removal, for both there are no package name available with recent W10 builds.
@MSMG I'm using LTSC v17763.1 en-us x64 and I removed all apps and all components with Toolkit v9.2. Everything looks good except Windows troubleshooting wizard does not work. I've tested it out on 3 computers and got the same errors. When I click troubleshoot on anything it says error. Can you check this out please?
May be since WER is used for reporting all windows errors, it might be connected with Windows troubleshooting wizard

The ToolKit Base archive has grown up to (339MB) due to WADK and some pack files like Edge, so I have decided to move all pack files out of main archive starting from next version.
- Remove Windows Component using Package List Support for using ToolKitHelper. Does this mean we can remove system components and advanced components using packagelist? I don't know anything about using the package list but I was just wondering.
@MSMG Thank you for the update, I didn't expect it so soon. I hope to do some testing tonight. After reading the documentation for v9.3 I want to confirm my changes to my method.
