    abbodi1406, thank you very much, exactly what I was looking for!!
    Can you please tell me how you made this list? Might be helpful for a "next time"?
    I've been using this "dism remove" on my Win8 sources for more than year, so your new code will also come in handy. This and the netfx3 thingy...
    Thanks again!!

    Thanks abbodi!
    Well, I just spotted "neutral" in the app names...How will this work for localized Windows 8/8.1 versions?
    Is there something like a language pack for that metro app or are the metro apps localized versions?
    Could need some fiddling if your Windows is not in English...

    Cheers.

    It'll work fine. When you remove the neutral packages it also removes any language resources as well.
