MicroWin - ISO Creation Error
When trying to create a MicroWin ISO I get multiple errors related to not being able to remove OS packages as well as an Invoke-WPFMicrowin Line 3053 unexpected error (as seen below).
One could reproduce this error by trying to make a MicroWin ISO while unchecking all 4 "Keep" checkboxes. Both PowerShell 5 and 7 have the exact same issue.
Here is my $PSVersionTable readout:

Done. ISO image is located here: C:\Users\Adam Shumpis\Downloads\MicroWin11-06262024.iso
I'll also add that there was another package attempting to be removed but the failure stopped it mid-flight and left a graphical glitch progress bar where it stopped even after everything stopped running. This conveys to me that the attempted removal of packages was cut short and more were to come. I didn't catch a screenshot of it but if truly required, I can.
It should be fixed with PR #2192
Still broken but in a slightly different way. I have since moved on to Windows 11 24H2 IoT Enterprise LTSC (26100.1.240331-1435.ge_release_CLIENT_ENTERPRISES_OEM_x64FRE_en-us.iso) and won't be tracking this anymore. I hope to see MicroWin sorted out in the future as it looks like a promising free stripped down alternative to NTLite.

@adamshumpisxxx, that may not be related to AppX packages. The change proposed in #2251 will differentiate the OS package and app package removal processes.
I guess that package operations are failing.
Ok so I did some testing the iso gets created fine, is you close out of microwin it then removes the iso

I don't have the auto-deletion issue but I also can't verify if the ISO is "fine" given the way it stops it's operation stone cold dead when it hits the error it does. That would lead me to believe it kills the script before it does what it promises to do. I could be wrong.
This issue was marked as stale because it has been inactive for 7 days
