# Install the RSAT items that meet the filter:
foreach ($item in $install) {
try {
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name $item.name
}
catch [System.Exception] {
Write-Warning -Message $_.Exception.Message
}
}

Again, open PowerShell as admin, then run the following code, which will remove all RSAT tools that are currently installed.
# Get RSAT items that are currently installed: $remove = Get-WindowsCapability -Online | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "RSAT*" -AND $_.State -eq "Installed"} # Remove the RSAT items that meet the filter: foreach ($item in $remove) { try { Remove-WindowsCapability -Online -Name $item.Name } catch [System.Exception] { Write-Warning -Message $_.Exception.Message } }
