Using NTL latest version & latest UUPD Win10 Pro x64 21H1 Image. Found these two issues

1. These two following Keyboard layouts ain't removing even after checking in the PRESET

00030409 [United States-Dvorak for left hand]
00040409 [United States-Dvorak for right hand]

Upon a clean installation, on 1st boot, I checked & verify this issue from here
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Keyboard Layouts

2. MS EDGE (chromium) is being installed in Windows 1st boot, clean installation, even though everything related that (EDGE) kept unchecked in PRESET

Anyone facing this same issue? Any solution?
 
i aint complaining about edge, im saying ntlite live the bugger or whatever solution after each cu.
 
IE died, i think ltsc will come with edge and webview since microsoft office now installs edge webview

Sorry guys for the very late response, I was very busy last month so didn't have time to revisit here & reply

Well, now coming to the topic, forget about the Keyboard layout (I can live with that), I am only concerned about removing the edge completely via NTLite settings from a stock W10 ISO mounted into NTLite for modding. Because, in my last few modding, even after checking all the relevant options in NTLite to remove edge while modding & making a modded ISO, when I install W10 in a system (Clean installation), EDGE is still there from the very first boot.

I am about to test a new batch, this time the newly released Win10 Pro 19043.1320 Iso made from UUPDump, using the latest NTLite 2.3.0.8396.

I just need to know that, what are the specific options, that I need to choose/check or uncheck in NTLite while modding this ISO to eliminate new EDGE completely? Also, apart from the NTLite settings, do I need to apply any reg keys in the NTLite Registry section?

Earlier, this issue was not present, but lately am experiencing this, as you guys all are saying there's no such issue from your end to remove edge via ntlite preset/settings, so I think I must be missing on some options so asking for suggestions from all of you.

Let me know what you guys do to remove edge from stock ISO while modding.
 
This is my removal settings (courtesy of Shep's posting). However, it gets obliterated after you install LCU since W10 CU forces Edge installation.

I have not tried integrating LCU first, then removing all the components in a 2nd pass. That ought to work, but it's pointless if you install future CU's on the live machine. Until someone comes up with new ideas, it's checkmate.
