Good afternoon, may I ask if the patch feature pack can be removed in bulk? Windows 11 officially integrates many useless WiFi drivers, which are not suitable for desktop computers
For desktop computers, I usually completely remove WiFi and Bluetooth components

Hi,

yes, that's planned in the future, thank you.
Cannot promise when, currently the focus is between the package removal page and group policy (all policies) read and list.
Problem with package removal page is that it creates more issues than it solves. Packages usually remove too much.
It is true there is a green list of packages, and maybe that's the start, just add checkboxes on that page.

Thank you for your reply. I originally planned to use the method of long pressing the Ctrl+entry, but found it to be impractical. I look forward to your next version, which will definitely receive good reviews

Hi, nuhi
As you said, there are indeed many problems
I have removed all the feature packages containing "WiFi". This is the second time I have mounted Wim, and they reappear and display as "uninstalled"
When I removed it again, they couldn't delete it properly and displayed an error

Yeah, feel free to delete WIFI drivers in the Components - Drivers, the tool will automatically clean the packages as well.
Let me know if it doesn't, attach a preset with removals that should.

Good evening, after my attempt, this method is feasible. But it cannot be completely deleted
Because I dare not delete all the drivers in the "network adapter" and need to keep the local cable network required for the desktop. Can NTlite recognize WiFi drivers and remove them? Because the manual deletion method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there are residues.
 
Thank you very much, garlin
Surprisingly, using your preset, two Intel drivers exist, while the others disappear
I have reviewed your preset, you delete in many places such as "modem", "keyboard", and even "Xbox". I have been reading it for a long time without understanding
This time, I only removed "WLAN Direct Service Connection Manager Service" and "Bluetooth", and uploaded my presets
Thank you again for your help

Those are drivers for BT-enabled cellular modems, keyboards, and Xbox controllers. I actually read every description before marking them, but I doubt they are correctly translated for non-English languages.

The other components you mentioned manage some of the actual Wireless LAN or Bluetooth functionality. My strategy was to only remove the device drivers, so restoring Wi-Fi or BT support is only a matter of re-installing the correct drivers.

Thank you, the purpose of deleting these is to make the settings and control panel and iso cleaner
I have checked both Win11 22h2 and 23h2 and found that this issue exists. I should abandon the idea of deleting them, as the presence of residual drivers will not affect the running speed
