    Thanks. Will you release a fix for returned components installed by WU?

    + Updated the Default Metro Apps Pack for MSMG TooKit with latest Basic Apps and Dependency Appx files.

    Thanks MSMG, that was my only request actually and you did follow up on it.
    Awesome work!

    Cheers.

    Yes I have added all the dependency required for the previous Windows 10 versions but haven't tested the same, please do checkout if any issues are there.

    You can use v1903.1 image and add WHD updates with v1909 Enablement package

    or

    You can use the v1909.418 image and add latest SSU and CU

    2-Edge could not been removed athough i removed Edge using the Remove menu
    3-Windows defender could not be removed and its notification still exists , pic2

    Installing/integrating updates after the component removal or using the WU to update system will restore all the removed components for v1903/v1909 due to the MS new update system, I'm still working on to fix this issue.

    Thanks for new version...

    I'm working on an 18363.449 en us pro image and noticed the removal time is back to 45 seconds per app but with 9.4.2 and the updated ToolKitHelper.exe with the same image it was a few seconds per app. Are you able to decrease the time back to a few seconds per app or can I use the separate updated ToolKitHelper.exe with v9.5 so the time it takes to remove an app can be decreased back down to a few seconds per app again

    The updated ToolkitHelper.exe was only for en-US and so it took less time for code protection engine to do the process but the current released version is for mui languages and so it takes more time.

    Can't further increase the speed since I have already set the .NET Dotfuscator level from normal to minimum, If you are removing any whole category it would be best to choose removal all for that category that would reduce the time.

    But if I'm using en-us will that updated toolkithelper.exe be ok to use? Problem is i keep the odd app thats spread out in all the catagories so it takes me a long long time just to remove apps.(well over an hour just for app removal)

    ToolKit 9.5
    When exporting one specific edition from an image to the same source folder, all previous editions and one exported are displayed:
    2019-10-27 001.png

    So it should be? Or should only one exported edition be displayed?
