    Good evening
    In the "Integrated Windows Feature" section, I ask How to insert the various components to be integrated for the Italian version as:
    ".Net Framweork", "Microsoft Win32 Calculator", "Microsoft DirectX 9.0C", "Microsoft Games", "Windows Sidebar" and "Microsoft Visual C ++ Runtime".

    Thank you

    No sir, source is 1809 17763.1. I have decided not to use any other version and i am going to stick to 17763.1. When i manually deleted the components one by one through the toolkit options, i didnt get this issue and sfc output was perfect.. So please let me know what could have caused this and the resolution to make a perfect image by using the packagelist file. Thanks

    Looks like installing a cumulative update brings back C:\Windows\SystemApps\Microsoft.Windows.ContentDeliveryManager_cw5n1h2txyewy to 1903. So there is little point in removing Content Delivery Manager (in Toolkit's Remove System Apps Menu), unless you disable Windows updates and never install any updates.

    Thanks Microsoft, it's absolutely critical that the ads and other s**t content are downloaded :p I haven't tested 1903 that much yet, but I guess it still requires Enterprise or LTSB/LTSC version for disabling ads using group policy/registry settings?

    Edit: I was using the latest Toolkit 9.4.1 to media SW_DVD9_Win_Pro_10_1903_64BIT_English_Pro_Ent_EDU_N_MLF_X22-02890.ISO (version 1903.30)

    ####Finished Removing Windows Components#######################################
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ===============================================================================

    Some apps which are not listed in the above menu were removed:
    • WindowsStore
    • XboxApp
    • XboxIdentityProvider
    I only noticed this because while I was working through my usual method, the toolkit mentioned that some apps had already been removed. The above is where I "Remove all metro apps (4 > 1 > 7 > 8)", then my step is "Remove Connect, Onedrive, People, Skype, Store, Xbox, Game bar, Xbox ID (4 > 1 > 6 > E/N/P/T/Z/1/2/3)".

    On this occasion I do not care that the above are removed without my wish to do so. However there will be people who may wish to keep one or more of the above three apps and are unaware that they removed them when using option 8 to remove all Windows apps. It might be expected for option 8 to only remove only all the items shown in the menu.

    I hope the above is clear, but I am tired right now.

    You need to download the respective packs and copy them to Packs folder in their respective folders, use the Toolkit menu to integrate them, if their is a Italian language files for the pack then it will get integrate too.

    Actually the WindowsStore, XboxApp, XboxIdentityProvider should come under the Windows Apps menu, since I ran out of menu choices in Windows Apps menu, I moved these Apps to System Apps.

    But in ToolKitHelper.exe the WindowsStore, XboxApp, XboxIdentityProvider are removed when the entire Windows Apps is said to remove and the change in v9.4.1 to use the category name is removing these components, need to modify the code for SystemApps and WindowsApps to call each component one by one.

    @MSMG ,In the new feature of toolkit v9.4.x from the registry file merge custom registry settings, there is still such a problem, that the comment and code content are not the same content.you need check your exist code,may be many similar errors in exist code.

    Code:
    :: Checking whether Custom System files Pack file exist
    for /f %%i in ('dir /b /a:-d "%CustomRegistry%\*.reg" 2^>nul ^| find /v /c ""') do (
        if "%%i" equ "0" (
            echo.Custom Registry Settings folder is empty...
            echo.
            echo.Please copy the registry files to ^<Custom\Registry\%SelectedSourceOS%\%ImageArchitecture%^> folder...

    Without shortcut you can't pin the items to start menu or taskbar, you need a create a shortcut for taskmgr.exe to be present in the System Tools.

    Ok will check this config and see what's causing the SFC error and why do you use both the Remove Windows Components and also Remove Windows Components using Package list? both does the same thing.

    Just add the selected components to RemovePkgsList.txt and use it and yes removing each component takes time but you can increase the speed by just calling the component category name instead of each components in a category.

    For example if you are removing all Windows Apps, then using

    Code:
    ToolKitHelper:WindowsApps
    
    is same as

    Code:
    ToolKitHelper:3DViewer
    ToolKitHelper:AdvertisingXaml
    ToolKitHelper:Alarms
    ToolKitHelper:BingWeather
    ToolKitHelper:Calculator
    ToolKitHelper:Camera
    ToolKitHelper:CommunicationsApps
    ToolKitHelper:DesktopAppInstaller
    ToolKitHelper:FeedbackHub
    ToolKitHelper:GetHelp
    ToolKitHelper:Getstarted
    ToolKitHelper:HEIFImageExtension
    ToolKitHelper:Maps
    ToolKitHelper:Messaging
    ToolKitHelper:MixedRealityPortal
    ToolKitHelper:OfficeHub
    ToolKitHelper:OfficeOneNote
    ToolKitHelper:OneConnect
    ToolKitHelper:Paint3D
    ToolKitHelper:People
    ToolKitHelper:Photos
    ToolKitHelper:Print3D
    ToolKitHelper:ScreenSketch

    ToolKitHelper:XboxApp
    ToolKitHelper:XboxIdentityProvider
    ToolKitHelper:YourPhone
    ToolKitHelper:ZuneMusic

    The difference is the former takes less time compared to later.
