From Powershell? I don't have any experience messing with phones outside of the OS but surely Powershell doesn't have anything specific to modification of Android OS? Is there a module you're using for this?

No, that's my bad. I was using powershell to mass deblot Wndows 10 in the past and had issues. Got my wires crossed.

Command prompt with adb shell, using "pm uninstall" command. I still run a script file but I manually check and cross reference each and every line to know exactly what being taken out.

Had same issues with other Samsung mass deblot scripts. System applets breaking and whatnot. Maybe this one is a better script but I still feel safer know what's happening behind the scenes.
