Multi-OEM/Retail Project {MRP} - Mk3

I do try to add something useful for each release. But m$ like to change things just as i got something sorted to then have to re do it at the last moment.

This possible new w10 option is going through many tests, powershell isnt one of my favorite scripting languages so is a learning experience. Even the versions of PS is not always backward/forward friendly in this specific option which is taking my time to work around.

As time is ticking away closer to March and my workload is busy at present it all puts pressure to get things done, if i cant get this option sorted then i will not include it just yet, would rather have a stable release than a unstable one again!

Well time to head back to work, my short tea break is over so quick.

 

Have added the Advanced 'Remove ALL Apps' option into the next MRP v135 and the Creator v40, note it has tooltips and a msgbox pop up when selected, make sure you read it and understand that there is NO revert script to use later if you realize you made a mistake when selecting this option!!

The option now works as it should, after a few weird results in that it not even run the routine's PS comands/script, good job really as i found a bug in the script that would remove EVERYTHING and i mean every APP - including the Store, Search/Cortana - the whole lot and the OS would react with odd effects such as Action Centre/Start Menu glitches, even PC Settings would not function...

So now that routine is sorted and so far no weird effects, certain Apps are left alone and some can be removed later via the Settings>Apps GUI if required such as XBox, Edge (Chromium one), Web Image Extensions, FeedBackHub (so any Insider build can be used and no glitches) and Calculator - if you not wish to use those - all other Apps are gone.

Certain 'System' Apps was left alone so that later Drivers/Games can be installed/run hopefully with no problems, but i cannot guarantee that when you use this new removal ALL App option that will be the case in all scenarios.

New users created later should also have those Apps removed as have also done the 'AppxProvisionedPackage' removal too.

Use this option with caution - think before you blindly click away!

The option will auto disable all other App removal options within MRP to help speed up removals and not need to do things twice.

Remember even 'Your Phone', Hello, Mixed Reality, Camera etc is gone when this option is used so some login methods may fail to operate.

A progress window should appear showing the App removal progress via P/Shell, unless you have silent mode option in use, but as P/Shell is not under normal batch scripting control that info window may still show while it is processing the App removals... Ignore any odd errors in RED in the P/Shell info bit as some Apps may not be present in your OS Edition/Language.

It is experimental and cannot guarantee it will work on every Window 10 build/edition as it depends on the internal kernel stuff, but im sure it will remove quite a lot regardless.

Below RS2 the routine will auto disable as the P/Shell version may not have the required commands such as the '-AllUsers' parameter, so for best results anything after RS2 should get the majority of Apps removed.

 

Can't find any website for that brand, also cannot find any DMI info about it either at present, so cannot add it, sorry.

Only sort of reference is a ONDA Android Tablet which would not run MRP anyway.

As for adding/running .reg files via setupcomplete.cmd :

Code:

REGEDIT /S "%Windir%\Setup\Scripts\MyRegFile.reg >nul 2>&1

Add that line into your SetupComplete script file, place the .reg file in the 'Scripts' folder next to SetupComplete.cmd.

Change the name in green to your .reg file's name.

 

Well you can use the Creator and set the brand you want to always use from the list and MRP will just use that one, or select Custom in the list and you can edit the files within the Custom brand folder that is inside the oem's.7z file.

It is all explained in the read me's.

 

As for the .reg files not working then either there is an error in your .reg file or you not alter the name in the example i gave to match your reg's file name.

 

通用 = 'Universal' -- l think would be a better term
