Powershell script that would do the following on a Windows Desktop Image

5. Remove Cortana Search

6. Remove MS Store (But do not disable)

7. Add Productivity to the XML file for StartMenu

9.  Modify the registry settings using Powershell (This works)

-Path HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced Name HideFileExt -Value 0 -Type DWord -Force
HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced -Name LaunchTo -Value 1 -Type DWord -Force]

10.  Group Policy Settings (Local GPO) I want to then move it Domain GPO

Start Menu Layout XML file  

Copy the customized Start Menu XML file to C:\Scripts folder

I am willing to work with someone to script it and learn in how to do this. Is anyone interested please reply to me and would like to work with someone who is experienced. Faster way to learn.

Thank you
