I need a list showing which components are related to the modern UI of Windows 11 21H2, 22H2, and 24H2. As far as I remember, removing some system apps may cause Windows 11's start menu, search menu, taskbar and task view to revert to the classic UI. Can anyone help me?
 
Depending on which version of W11, removing a CBS component can lead to a broken desktop with a "W10" look and feel:
- Microsoft.Client.CBS, for 21H2 to 23H2.​
- Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.CBS, for 24H2. This can also be triggered in some instances by DISM disabling Recall.​
 
Search in NTL Components "Extra info" colum for: Microsoft.UI.Xaml.CBS and make sure the red ones is checked.
