Windows 10 added a new Optional Windows Features screen.

enter image description here

It has different features from the "old" Turn Windows Feaures On/Off screen:

I know how to turn the features in the second screen on/off using PowerShell using the Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online, Enable-, Disable- command. Yet none of the features in the first screen show up in this list.

Which other set of PowerShell/DISM commands can I use to change:

  • Uninstall IE11
  • Install Wireless Display
  • Uninstall Windows Media Player
  • Install OpenSSH client

etc?

It looks like these are called Windows Capabilities in tech-speak and packages can be turned on/off using:

 Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "XPS.Viewer*" | Remove-WindowsCapability -Online

And the same applies to adding a capability:

 Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "OpenSSH.Client*" | Add-WindowsCapability -Online

Listing all available capabilities:

Get-WindowsCapability -Online
