The Script removes EVERYTHING even though some apps have been removed from the script. #43

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Just got unpleasantly surprised when after editing the script to retain some apps that I need and running it, every app that I removed from the script and many more that weren't there, got removed. My OS is now stripped of almost everything, except for things like 'OneDrive' and 'People'.

What the heck? Warhawks script used to work great, but this one 😮

Edit: How do I get stuff like Store, Calculator, Weather, SoundRecorder etc. back?

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

Hi,

Sorry that has happened to you. I have not experienced that myself. Have you tried using the revert option in the Windpws10Debloater.ps1 script? It'll bring everything back that was removed.

And what did you modify exactly? I'm just curious so I know.

Here is my file:

Windows10SysPrepDebloater.txt

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

I might need to go through and take a look at the SysPrep code.

Can you try using the Windows10Debloater.ps1 and use the revert option to get all of your stuff back? If you don't want to then here is the line of code:

Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ForEach {Add-AppxPackage -Verbose -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

I've tried to use the Revert option. From the most basic things it reinstalled only Calculator, Photos, Video Editor and Store.

I've installed SoundRecorder from the store and this time ran W10Debloater.ps1 with same modifications I've done to the other file. SoundRecorder has been uninstalled again even though it's # out in the script :(

Edit: And OneDrive icon is present in the start menu and isn't removable, though the app is gone.

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

I was playing with my script and I can't say I experienced what you had experienced. I'm really sorry! Have you tried it on another test machine?

ghost commented 6 years ago

Unfortunately it's the only machine I'm able to use the script. For now it's fine. I haven't ran into any issues lately and everything seems to be stable. I have this issue always available in browser so if I'll be able to use your script again or run into any issues, I'll report back here.

caffeinepills commented 6 years ago

Can confirm this does indeed remove everything. It seems to ignore both whitelists, as it removes the store, calculator, everything. The worst part is, if it removes some provisioned packages (such as Sticky Notes) you cannot add it back. It gets removed from StoreApps library and cannot be reinstalled for all users as a provisioned package unless you reinstall Windows (or add it to an image later using dism).

The FixWhitelistedApps function does not even run at all. I tested this to see, and even if I comment out everything else and just that function, it doesn't work. I've tested it on a Surface and a Dell, same result. (1803 Win 10)

EDIT: After looking into it a little more, I think the line in question is: Write-Verbose -Message ('Removing AppXPackages for current user') get-appxpackage | remove-appxpackage -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

If you run this under the local Administrator, it will remove anything and everything including the store.

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

I updated the script and removed Write-Verbose -Message ('Removing AppXPackages for current user') get-appxpackage | remove-appxpackage -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue from the Begin-SysPrep function, and also removed the If statement from the FixWhitelistedApps function.

Please let me know your experience and see if it is resolved.

Hey guys, this is URGENT. Do you guys have a solution on how to get the Store back on the images that this script has been deployed on?

I really need to fix this problem as it has caused a lot of dramas where I work.

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

Hi @seenawardi , choose the revert option to restore the store and all other apps.

There's a line of code in the Revert-Changes function that does this.

Here's the code:

Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | ForEach {Add-AppxPackage -Verbose -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Keep in mind you will need to use this code as an Administrator.

@Sycnex Hey man, We have tried that many times under admins as well but the problem still exists.

We have no store accross 30 machines and we really need to find a fix otherwise we have to reimage all and that's very very bad.

When we run the command, non of the apps come back, I think your code actually deletes all the installation files as well.

Do you have any ideas?

Sycnex commented 6 years ago

My code doesn't delete the actual installation files, but it removes the appxpackages and appxprovisionedpackages from a hidden windows folder which stores those packages. It doesn't do anything to the actual system files themselves which is why after large anniversary updates the apps can come back.

What version of Windows 10 are you running?

This article has some ideas but it suggests the same line of code that I suggested as well.

Perhaps look into using DISM.

Do you have any GPOs blocking downloads of any Microsoft store apps?

So it does look like it is reinstalling apps and such as it normally should. This still doesn't allow the store to reinstall?

No unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be installing the store at all, as in the command to install .net is there but not the store.

Try using the DISM method to resolve this.

Is this an issue on your main Image that you clone from?

@Sycnex Ya the DISM method did not resolve it neither.

Unfortunately, we have cloned the images and they are now all coming up with this issue.

Can you think of any other ideas?

Have you tried running a Windows Repair with a Windows 10 iso? Or running a Windows refresh?

Can't do that on 30 machines in 2 different cities.

I added a new blacklist function called DebloatBlacklist which will only remove the specified bloatware in the array in the function.

I also renamed the Start-Debloat function to DebloatAllApps since it seemed to remove absolutely everything related to the Microsoft Store (Any games, apps, etc).

When you hit "Yes" in the first prompt, you will be asked if you want debloat via a blacklist or if you want to remove everything, in terms of apps.

I know that this won't resolve your issue @seenawardi but I thought you should know this. Secondly, this script now won't just remove everything, as everyone else here had experienced.
