![]() ![]() If you manually uninstall just the 2 apps I'm targeting, the Game Bar and overlays will still work, but uninstalling the others break various parts of Windows. I only want to remove 2 of the 7 because only 2 of them aren't dependencies for other things. What I'm getting at, is then the rest of the steps are misdirected because I'm not wanting to remove all 7 apps from the entire system. So then Windows PowerShell throws an error saying "Hey, you cannot uninstall Game Bar/Overlay stuff because then things will break." Which makes sense, that's why in the Start > Settings > Apps menu the "Game Bar" is grayed out and cannot be "uninstalled" (deprovisioned), and in fact the other 4 Xbox components aren't even listed in the Apps menu at all. What I would have expected to see here instead is XboxApp rather than Xbox because the problem is you are trying to uninstall all 7 Xbox items at once with this wildcard name in PowerShell, rather than trying to just uninstall the 1 singular app, like the "uninstall" button in the App menu does. This is where I think we start going in different directions. PS > Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Where PackageFullName -like '*Xbox*' | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers That returns all the items as expected since they are only deprovisioned (not uninstalled), which I learned from you, so I'm onboard so far. PS > (Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers).Name -like '*Xbox*' "Uninstalling" hasn't removed any actual packages from Windows. Garlin, I followed all your text, and I'm with you until I reach your step #3, but then it gets murky: Just because Windows gives you a false impression of what's "removed", doesn't mean NTLite is wrong. Same rule applies to NVIDIA's gaming overlays. There's no point keeping Overlays when they can't perform without the base Xbox App. Why does NTLite want to remove those other packages? PS C:\Windows\system32> (Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers).Name -like '*Xbox*' Well how does NTLite remove packages?

Remember that XboxGameCallableUI is protected by NTLite, because Solitaire requires it? However, it may not be possible to uninstall the app. An administrator can attempt to remove the app from the computer using Turn Windows Features on or off. This app is part of Windows and cannot be uninstalled on a per-user basis.

I will uncheck Xbox and TCUI from within NTLite for my next install testing and see if anything breaks, or if it does exactly the same thing as uninstalling through the Windows App menu does, except it's for all users and not just the current user.ġ. I wonder if that is the issue I'm running into here. It's rather common for a lot of NTLite users to be using much older editions of Windows, and/or LTSC and such. So perhaps in more later versions of Windows 10 Microsoft has separated them out more? I can uninstall these 2 items from within the Windows App menu for the current user, and still proceed to use the Game Bar for example. This doesn't actually appear to be the case though, with Windows 10 21H2 at least? There is still at least a miscommunication in NTLite I think, because when I go to uncheck the Xbox and TCUI boxes from within NTLite it gives me a warning saying that they are dependent on by several other things. So inside NTLite's "live" Windows it doesn't show an unchecked box if something is only uninstalled (deprovisioned in this case) for just 1 of the users, even if there's only 1 user on that install. ![]()
