I messed up.. :( grrrr

 

Just noticed that i still got the standard apps that are built in to Windows 10... (xbox etc...)

 

Is there a script that i can run in a GPO that will remove these apps for all Users (new and old users)

Is this thread any use:

I have a funny feeling that the bloatware tool doesn't remove what we call "the windows bloatware", instead it removes pre-installed bloatware from vendors like HP, Dell, etc.

 

Having installed release 14372, run the custom bloatware powershell script ive got, it removes 24 preinstalled apps (using Education):

3D builder,

Bing Weather,

Desktop App Installer,

Get Started,

Messaging,

MS Office Hub,

MS Software Collection,

MS Sticky Notes,

Office One Note (error - specified path not found)

One Connect

People,

Skype App,

Store Purchase App,

Windows Photos,

Windows Alarms,

Windows Camera,

Windows Communications Apps,

Windows Feedback,

Windows Maps (error - specified path not found)

Windows Sound recorder,

Xbox App,

Xbox Identity Provider,

Zune Music,

Zune Video.

 

I cannot run the RefreshWindowsTool as the tool doesn't support the English (UK) language - thats not one of the bugs i thought it would have but i get the feeling it wont remove the Win10 bloatware.

 

One good thing, there's no Farmville, Duolingo, World of Tanks, Candy crush installed or on the Start menu - MS will get there eventually!

I use two powershell scripts. One on Machine startup and one on user logon.

 

The user logon to remove it from current profiles, the machine startup to delete it from the default profile.

 

Can use something similar to this:

 

'Microsoft.MicrosoftOfficeHub', 'Microsoft.GetStarted', 'Microsoft.SkypeApp' |

ForEach-Object {

Get-AppxPackage -Name $_ |

Remove-AppxPackage

}
