How to remove unused features on IGEL OS?


I was under impression that with firmware customization we can remove unused apps from iGel OS, but it turns out it is used only for cosmetic customization.

Can you please let me know how I can exclude all unused modules from Firmware so it’s download and updates does not take too long?

I need to keep only system, remote access, info, Citrix and browser. Everything else is waste of resources since we are not using them.


@member This can be done as follows:

It can also be done during initial install via OSC.

Thanks Ron!

it’s not really doing what I wanted it to do… I explicitly removed Webex and it still installs it when doing firmware update


what shows in the UMS when you right-click the device: -> System -> Firmware Customization -> Features ? Are the features you wanted to disable disabled?
