    I understood you correctly that after deleting these files the system breaks down. It turns out that you can remove them, but you don’t need to?

    One or more files cannot be removed, otherwise it will cause a system error.

    I don't know which files these are.

    I also don’t know which of the proposed files breaks the system. Therefore, I will continue to use a script that has already been tested and works fine.

    New test, without removing the files mentioned by @hkeller, but the error persists...

    In other words, I will continue with the script that has already been tested and is working...

    Provides a way to delete files, which makes the system image very small.

    I tried it, it says that it cannot find the component at this address. I looked in the registry and also don’t see such paths:
    .
    reg delete "HKLM\DEFAULT\Drive\shell\*
    .

    reg delete "HKLM\NTUSER\Drive\shell\*
    .

    How to understand this? Or was this some kind of joke?

    If not, it can be ignored. Actually, it's not a problem not to delete the registry key here.
