Here's the situation:

Win 10 1709 -> Upgraded to 1803/also tried 1809

Ran the commands:

Get-AppxPackage -AllUser | Remove-AppxPackage

Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage

Also verified what I had left for apps by exporting this command:

Get-AppxPackage -AllUser | Where PublisherID -eq 8wekyb3d8bbwe | Format-List -

Property PackageFullName,PackageUserInformation > C:\list.txt

I have gone through and removed each app specifically using the:

Remove-AppxPackage -Package [PackageName]

As well as:

Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | where-object {$_.packagename -like

"*packagename*"} | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage

I have also turned off all windows features with the exception of Internet Explorer 11,
because I need this app. Note: I managed to get this to work with 1809, once, and when I
did, I turned off all features, and when I finally imaged the new 1809 on a device, I wanted
to have Internet Explorer 11 to be included, or the feature to be turned on, or the
application reinstalled. But, it's already installed, and the command to turn the feature on
would require a RSAT install on the PC it gets to run the powershell module needed, which
we didn't want to do.

I have ran the command in cmd:

msdtc -uninstall

msdtc -install

Made sure that SkipRearm located in: HLKM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows

NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform was set to "1".

Made sure that GeneralizationState located in: HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\Status\SysprepStatus

was set to "7".

Not sure what else I have done... it's been a wild ride, anyways, here's what I have left
when I export that list:

Microsoft.AsyncTextService_10.0.17134.1_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

1/3
Microsoft.ECApp_10.17134.1_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

Microsoft.MicrosoftEdgeDevToolsClient_1000.17134.1.0_neutral__neutral_8wekyb3d8bbwe

Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_42.17134.1.0_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

And when I go through the sysprep Setupact.log, it looks like it breaks around:

SYSPRP ActionPlatform::LaunchModule: Failure occurred while executing

'Sysprep_Generalize_MountPointManager' from C:\Windows\System32\spmpm.dll; dwRet
= 0x2

Any ideas?

Alright folks, I have managed to Sysprep it twice in a row with the following steps:

1. Open Programs and Features and uninstall all applications (optional)

2. Add the following keys to the Registry:

-
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsStore\WindowsUpdate\AutoDownload,
"2", "REG_DWORD"

-
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CloudContent\DisableWindowsConsumerFeatures,
"1", "REG_DWORD"

-
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CloudContent\DisableWindowsConsumerFeatures,
"1", "REG_DWORD"

- HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsStore\AutoDownload, "2", "REG_DWORD"

3. Reboot

4. Turn off the Network Adapter

5. Run the following PowerShell commands as Administrator:

- Get-AppxPackage -AllUser | Remove-AppxPackage

- Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online

6. Run the following PowerShell command as Administrator to get the list of left over
applications:

- Get-AppxPackage -AllUser | Where PublisherID -eq 8wekyb3d8bbwe | Format-List -

Property PackageFullName,PackageUserInformation > c:\list.txt

7. Run the following PowerShell command to clean up any of the "Staged" applications:

- Remove-AppxPackage -Package "PackageFullName"

8. All you should have left are 4 packages:

- Microsoft.AsyncTextService_10.0.17134.1_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

- Microsoft.ECApp_10.0.17134.1_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

-
Microsoft.MicrosoftEdgeDevToolsClient_1000.17134.1.0_neutral_neutral_8wekyb3d8bbwe

- Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_42.17134.1.0_neutral__8wekyb3d8bbwe

9. Go to c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows, right-click on AppRepository and change the

security settings, and take ownership of the folder and all items inside, you want to give
ownership to ehadmin

10. You need to install SQLiteBrowser3 so you can edit the StateRepository_Machine.srd
file in the AppRepository folder (Or use a portable version which is easier)

- Note: Copy the file to c: to make a backup

11. When you open StateRepository_Machine.srd, you need to click Browse Data, then
under Table: select Package, and look for those 4 packages under the PackageFullName
column, then find what PackageID they are, and take note, in this case: Async is 186,
ECApp is 189, MicrosoftEdgeDev is 191, and MicrosoftEdge is 192.

12. Next step is going into the IsInbox column and change the value from a "1" to a "0" for
each of those packages

13. Open Command Prompt as Admin, and find the StateRepository task by running the
command:

- tasklist /svc /fi "services eq StateRepository"

14. Run the command:

- taskkill -pid PIDNumber /f

This will end the task

15. In SQLiteBrowser3, go to File, Write Changes.

16. Reboot

17. Run PowerShell as admin again and now try to run the command:

- Remove-AppxPackge -Package "PackageFullName" again for the last 4 packages, they

should be able to be removed
18. Turn Network Adapter back on

19. Sysprep
