7 pro has something approaching 1gb of drivers, removing 3rd party drivers alone gives a good saving without touching os components. ripping out winsxs and hard links will save a fair bit. Nuhi gives you more options and i prefer his way. I may have to test that igpu driver on 8.1 but ive got a big list and need tocatch up on a lot

That's not an error related to components removed, it's a warning of duplicate ownership of files which I do see normally in my test where there are no errors shown by SFC.
For v1809 the supported build is 17763.1 For v1903 the supported builds 18363.1, 18363.30 and 18363.387 For v1909 the support build is 18363.387
Yes I have read the post, today will prepare an enterprise image with the latest CU and will do the testing.
Yes for v1.0.2160.0. I would like to simplify the support by replacing v1903 with v1909 in future, if any one having a high-end PC with knowledge of integrating language packs and willing to help me in preparing a multi-language install.wim image then do send me a PM.
Although I don't have knowledge, I would be willing to learn so I can put my i5 to good use and help you.
Awesome thanks, but what build do I need to start with? 18363.387? or 18363.30? I cant even find 18363.387
