Initialize-Winget.ps1 refreshes PATH, re-registers App Installer and falls back to the provisioned package before exiting with a Store link. All scripts that call winget now dot-source this helper instead of failing on a missing winget. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\powershell\libres-softwares-install.ps1

|---|---|
| Firefox ESR (FR) | Mozilla.Firefox.ESR.fr |

🚀 Automated Packs
Use winget configuration files when you want a repeatable installation.
| Pack | Includes | Command |
|---|---|---|
| Starter pack | Firefox ESR, 7-Zip, VLC | winget configure --file .\winget\libre-soft-start-pack.yaml --accept-configuration-agreements |
| LibreOffice pack | Starter pack, LibreOffice | winget configure --file .\winget\libre-soft-base-libreoffice.yaml --accept-configuration-agreements |

Example:
winget configure --file .\winget\libre-soft-start-pack.yaml --accept-configuration-agreements
To install Firefox ESR with the default browser and uBlock Origin configuration in one step, run:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\powershell\Install-Firefox.ps1
The script installs Firefox ESR, writes Firefox enterprise policies, force-installs uBlock Origin from Mozilla Add-ons, configures managed uBlock Origin defaults and imports Windows default app associations for future users.
More details: Firefox ESR and uBlock Origin configuration.
🧹 Remove Built-In Apps
Use the Appx cleanup script when you want to remove selected built-in applications without winget and reduce reprovisioning for newly created users.
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\powershell\Remove-BuiltInApps.ps1
The script removes installed and provisioned Appx packages, disables Microsoft consumer experiences, blocks OneDrive startup for future users, updates the default user profile ContentDeliveryManager settings and writes Appx deprovisioning registry markers.
OneDrive is blocked for future users by default. It is not an Appx package on most Windows installations, so pass -IncludeOneDrive only when you also want to call the built-in OneDrive uninstaller on the current machine:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\powershell\Remove-BuiltInApps.ps1 -IncludeOneDrive
The older winget-based cleanup script is still available, but it only targets the current user:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\powershell\Winget-Remove-BuiltInApps.ps1
Run this script before creating the new Windows user profile, then restart Windows. Targeted applications include Xbox components, Outlook for Windows, Feedback Hub, Power Automate, Sticky Notes, Weather, Teams, Microsoft To Do, Bing apps, Clipchamp, Windows Web Experience Pack, OneDrive startup and related built-in packages.
