Prevent installation of Outlook and Dev Home

Hello,

I finalized a new build from which I removed the UWP apps I didn't need but when I deploy it, as soon as it finds the Internet, it downloads and auto-installs the Dev Home and Outlook apps. I really have no need for those apps and it's distracting to have things in the menu.

I'm speculating that there's some reg key that some resource reads to determine if the OOBE is completed and starts the auto-install feature. Is there any way to find what resource is doing this or maybe something in the registry that could be manipulated to get rid of this behavior?

If anyone knows any way or has any ideas, I'm all ears. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Edit: And while I'm at it, if anyone knows a way to perevnt the updates check for the UWP apps, it would be highly appreciated too. For some apps, I only like the more simpler older versions but Microsoft force updates on me. I'm sure there's a way to do it. If somebody could guide me, I shall be grateful.

From your unattended file, apply these changes during "specialize" pass:

WU normally updates all downloadable UWP apps.
