Is there a way to reinstall the Appx(=Modern apps) deleted by OSOT?

Hi.

 

I have faced one problem recently.

Starting with Win10 20H2, Sysprep doesn't seem to work with the appx(modern apps) installed.


If I run 'Remove apps' among OSOT's default template, sysprep is works, but I can't reinstall apps that users need, such

as calculator on VMs that have been deployed.


The 'remove-appxpackage' command allows the deleted app to be reinstalled from the 'Manifest.xml' file, but VDI

deployment fails with sysprep error.

Although VM deployment is possible thanks to the great tool, I'd like to ask you about this issue.


How does the powerhell command 'remove-appxpackage' differ from how it works in OSOT?

Also, is there a way to reinstall the app after proceeding with the 'remove apps' ​with OSOT?

 

Regards.

If you are using VMware's template in OSOT, there is an option to leave the common AppX packages.
