I’ve always felt like installing something that isn’t needed then removing it was a nasty way to do things. This was the way the software center was for the longest time.

As mentioned…within an Enterprise it’s not always that easy to “disturb” users with updating/upgrading items so it needs to be as efficient as possible…(and since these OS upgrades aren’t small)….

If so, see http://blogs.technet.com/b/mniehaus/archive/2015/11/23/seeing-extra-apps-turn-them-off.aspx, easy to turn them off. (This has nothing to do with the apps in the image – they aren’t in the image, the store pushes them down after logging in.) And you’re right, upgrading with a custom image is not supported. The issue with removed apps coming back after an upgrade (e.g. you removed them from 1507, then you installed 1511 and found that they were back) is something we’re aware of and looking at. But it’s fairly easy to just remove them again. Also, remember that the support timelines for a non-LTSB release isn’t fixed. We have guaranteed that there will be at least two CBB releases in market at all times, and have stated that we’ll only do 2-3 upgrades per year. So it’s quite possible (likely even) that the support timeline will be longer than a year.

I agree it would be nice if there was better control of the apps/features that come with each new release but i guess that's work in progress for Microsoft, On Fri, Jan 29, 2016 at 7:11 PM, Johan van Dijk <hupe...@outlook.com<mailto:hupe...@outlook.com>> wrote: Jep…and different with every release….in TH2 there was different “crap” compared to the August release….
