    I may at some stage separate the Bing apps to be individual options, but as space a bit tight in the Creator and it getting a bit large code wise that will have to be on the to-do list.

    So if you select 'All Bing related' the weather, news, finance, and other bing named apps will be removed as one block.

    The 'All Safe Apps' option also does the same as above - along with various other apps.

    The Calculator, Snip/Sketch tool, Sticky-notes will not be removed as they can be useful, if you want those gone just uninstall those via Apps within the Settings App manually.

    OneDrive, Phone and XBox are not included in the above option selections and have their own selectable boxes.

    Yea it was a bit short answer :D Not bad or something hehe.

    I'll uncheck the "safe apps" and other to try tomorrow before I go to work.. It shows weather on lockscreen when I remove the mrpconfig but not when Im using it.
    Also installing weather app (obviously) doesnt affect anything..

    Re-arranging some options might be a good idea. Think I've seen several options of "unpin <app> from task bar" and some other minor stuff but lets focus on MRP itself first:)

    Odd how it not show weather info on the lock screen when using the ini file as mrp just parses the file for the option command lines if they not set or present, mrp just uses default off settings , same as if the ini was not present.

    The news some of you have been waiting for... :p :D

    MRP v133 has been uploaded, 2nd post's download link, password and hashes have been updated. :)

    General OS Options
    + Added 'Run MRP in silent/quiet mode', note that majority of MRP's internal scripts will run silent, also UserTweaks and WinTel scripts may also be ran silent too. This is an advanced option and some unpredictable results may happen if you have any user interactive tweaks/programs being installed as they too may be ran silent and no way for the user to click or action any item required and so will technically 'hang' the Windows setup. Use this option with caution!

    + Added 'Do not auto delete the Scripts folder' this is for those that have their own scripts that install programs etc that use the Scripts folder for operation, this option will tell MRP not to delete the Scripts folder and so it is then up to the end user to clear this folder later.

    + Added two Win 10 'Special' App removal options:
    1) Phone App: Removes the App, Start Menu Tile and Icons etc plus hides its page reference from within the 'Settings' App to prevent crashes.

    2) XBox Apps: Removes all related Xbox Apps, Start Menu Tile and Icons etc, plus hides its page reference from within the 'Settings' App to prevent crashes.

    *Important* If you remove the XBox app it is possible some specific Apps or Games may not operate properly.

    Note: The 'Special' App removal options are separated from the normal App removal selectors and is not part of the 'Remove All Safe Apps' option either, this is because any 'Special' Apps require extra attention for their removal to prevent problems later within the OS.

    + Added the 'Huawei' brand to the OEM's.7z file along with DMI, SLIC and MSDM brand name detection. This is not an 'official' OEM brand set of data but is functional.

    + MRPConfigCreator has been updated with all the new options listed above and the new Huawei brand to the custom theme selector.

    + Many internal code tweaks to help speed up the project's processing in other areas of operation.

    + Adjusted some log output texts in specific areas to hopefully read clearer.

    Remember that any selected App removals will add extra time to the OS's installation just before the 'User Oobe' part is reached such as entering the main 'User Name' etc.

    Query Tool v112.0 will be available within next couple of days.

    A strong contender for the updated W10 Apps removal Tab within the Creator. :)
    W10AppsNewConceptDesign.jpg <-Click for larger image.

    In Advanced mode a new button along the bottom will appear, when clicked it will give information about App removals. This method frees up space in the W10Apps Tab section as can be seen...

    To get the Creator to work with just this little change was a challenge as it kept crashing the GUI when not in Advanced mode :g:, took a bit of ingenuity to fool the GUI that it was a pop up/msgbox within the Tab!

    Next will be the internal coding within MRP after i have made the ini show the separated Bing bits.

    :g: No MRP Project log - or even a partial one like the debug1.log ?

    I am guessing MRP did not complete?

    Ok.

    Was the iso/wim file edited in any way such as with msmg or ntlite to remove anything?
