Check skipping the cleanup step and see if SFC error occurs, in many previous CU's there were SFC scan bugs which were fixed at some point.
Thanks. After removing Cortana with NTLite some items appeared with the wrong icons in the Start Menu search, and after typing some words, I got no results.
if skipping the cleanup step i have no errors, this happened to me also with KB4549951 So am I not the one who misses the steps? I kept doing it because I read many who succeed without problems, how is it possible?
In v2004 there are no two separate things like Cortana Component and Cortana App, only Cortana App is present. The ToolKitHelper method used for removing Cortana App needs further tweaking to fix the Start Menu search and that's why I did gave a temporary solution to use DISM's remove provisioned apps command to remove the Cortana App until a fix is implemented in ToolKitHelper.
May be the latest CU might have brought back the SFC bug again which the Microsoft had fixed earlier.
In W10 v2004 the Cortana UI and Search has been separated. The Search part is now a System App (Microsoft.Windows.Search_cw5n1h2txyewy) and is present in <Windows\SystemApps> folder. The Cortana App which is the Cortana UI is now normal Provisioned Appx Package (Microsoft.549981C3F5F10) and is present in <Program Files\WindowsApps> folder.
i been away for few months. i was getting power offs randomly i still need to send motherboard to warrantt. so i have no PC LOL. question does using toolkit now still reinstalls rwmoved apps when windows update is used.?
If they're separated in 2004, then why does removing Cortana break the Start Menu and the Settings app?
Thanks MSMG. Just one question, how do I set the ISO label and filename on the fly like the toolkit does ?? The script already sets the two values and won't ask when it's run.
hi Iknow that you are doing great work spending a lot of your time if you can add with removing all accept so I can keep one of the list and remove the rest thanks to you
You can remove apps of your choice via going to msmg project & edit removeappslist.txt in lists directory inside bin folder.
Nice! I had registry entries being added also through scripts triggered by "setupcomplete.cmd". When I fixed everything, including the "*.reg" files, I got rid of the problem. In this case my problem was directly related to the commands for adding registry entries in my scripts. Good to know! Thanks!
There are only two ways you can remove all provisioned apps & some system apps from your offline wim : Via Dism - use only package name in remove apps list txt. Via Toolkit Helper - use ToolkitHelper : package name in remove apps list txt. Note Dont use both methods . You can use any of them to remove packages.
thanks I am asking of aversion of windows not support by the tool kit can I add this version to be supported?
