package remove-windows-appx

[Gaelds]

Good morning,
I'm getting errors installing the remove-windows-appx package on a small part of my network. Is there a PowerShell equivalent to "run_notfatal"?

Example :

If needed, removing: Microsoft.BingSports
If needed, removing: Microsoft.BingWeather
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\wapt\common.py", line 3876, in install_wapt
exitstatus = setup.install()
File "c:\windows\temp\waptyl5ecp\setup.py", line 93, in install
File "C:\wapt\setuphelpers_windows.py", line 840, in run_powershell
raise CalledProcessErrorOutput(e.returncode,cmd,e.output)
CalledProcessErrorOutput: Command u'$ProgressPreference = "SilentlyContinue"\n(Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | where DisplayName -EQ "Microsoft.BingWeather" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online) | ConvertTo-Json' returned non-zero exit status 1.

I haven't tried it, but I would have tried this:

Code: Select all

MyCommand > $null

Or

Code: Select all

MyCommand > c:\quelquepart.log

Or

Code: Select all

Mycommand | out-null

I still have some positions where it doesn't work:
For example:

Removing undesired Windows Store applications...
If needed, removing: Microsoft.3DBuilder
If needed, removing: Microsoft.Print3D
If needed, removing: Microsoft.Microsoft3DViewer
If needed, removing: Microsoft.MixedReality.Portal
If needed, removing: Microsoft.YourPhone
If needed, removing: Microsoft.WindowsFeedbackHub
If needed, removing: Microsoft.Windows.Cortana
If needed, removing: Microsoft.GetHelp
If needed, removing: Microsoft.BingFinance
If needed, removing: Microsoft.BingNews
If needed,
If needed, removing: Microsoft.BingWeather

With this code:

Code: Select all

def install():
    print("Removing undesired Windows Store applications...")
    for app in apps:
        print("If needed, removing: %s" % app)
        #print('Get-AppxPackage -Name "%s" -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage' % app)
        run_powershell('Get-AppxPackage -Name "%s" -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage | out-null' % app)
        #print('Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | where DisplayName -EQ "%s" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online' % app)
        run_powershell('Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | where DisplayName -EQ "%s" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | out-null' % app)


def session_setup():
    print("Removing undesired Windows Store applications...")
    for app in apps:
        print("If needed, removing: %s" % app)
        #print('Get-AppxPackage -Name "%s" | Remove-AppxPackage' % app)
        run_powershell('Get-AppxPackage -Name "%s" | Remove-AppxPackage | out-null' % app)

Yes

Sorry, but none of the solutions work.

Using run_notfatal eliminates the error, but it seems to install too quickly to actually work...

Code: Select all

def install():
    print("Removing undesired Windows Store applications...")
    for app in apps:
        print("If needed, removing: %s" % app)
        run_notfatal('powershell.exe Get-AppxPackage -Name "%s" -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage' % app)
        run_notfatal('powershell.exe Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | where DisplayName -EQ "%s" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online' % app)
