Remove Apps in addition to the ones removed using -RunDefaults (using "Quick Method")

[brueckentroll]

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to use both -RunDefaults but ALSO define some apps to be removed in addition to the ones on the Defaults (Apps.json) as a parameter. It is my understanding that if -RunDefaults is used, -Apps is ignored.

I am aware of the possibility to use a modified Apps.json in the downloaded version of the script, but I prefer to use the "Quick Method" with the live-download instead to always have the most recent list of Tweaks and Apps applied. I am also aware that I could just set all the flags set by -RunDefaults manually, but I was wondering if I am overlooking a simpler solution.

Thanks,
Kai

Heya,

You can supply a list of apps via the CLI, more info here: https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat/wiki/App-Removal#app-removal-via-cli

It's important to note that the script does require exact matches of app ids. It checks against Apps.json

I found that while using -RunDefaults, any apps I listed via -RemoveApps -Apps "..." did NOT get removed.

This is the command I am using

& ([scriptblock]::Create((irm "https://debloat.raphi.re/"))) -RunDefaults -HideSearchTb -DisableLockscreenTips -RevertContextMenu -TaskbarAlignLeft -RemoveApps -Apps "Microsoft.OneDrive,Microsoft.OutlookForWindows" -Silent

This command does NOT appear to do anything with -RemoveApps -Apps "Microsoft.OneDrive,Microsoft.OutlookForWindows" while -RunDefaults is also present. When I remove -RunDefaults, the apps are removed as intended (but of course I am missing the Default-things now).

Is there any way to combine -RunDefaults AND manually defined apps to remove directly via CLI (without using modified apps.json)?

Edit: The underlying issue in my use-case is that -RunDefaults indeed removes most Apps I need to be removed but I want to remove two additional apps that are not part of the default listing.

Thank you!

I see, it seems those two options do indeed conflict. I will see it I can fix that in a future update.

While not ideal, you can run the script twice as a work around. That will allow you to first remove the default and then remove the other apps.

Thanks, will do that for now.
I appreciate the good work!
