For anyone wanting to remove Click to Do (Recall) & Photon from Windows 11...

[Meedas]

I have tested this recently on Windows 11 24H2 26100.3915 using the latest NTLite build and it works flawlessly. I just removed the following System apps from NTLite:

MicrosoftWindows.Client.CoreAI (Click to Do)
MicrosoftWindows.Client.Photon (Photon)

Once removed, the only files that remain are the dependency files that are linked to other items (to prevent Explorer and other apps from breaking).

I tested the removal for a about a week and I have not experienced any issues, slowdowns, or crashes.

Keep up the great work Nuhi!

abbodi86 hi, will you be updating CustomAppsList for new components ofc if its ok to remove them on uup level w/o keeping dependency files?

also does script allow you to add custom entries to customapplist? like MicrosoftWindows.Client.Photon etc

 

[abbodi86]

CustomAppsList control adding outbox Store apps during UUP conversion

CoreAI, Photon... etc are inbox components added by LCU
