Removal of unwanted network protocols

Deleted · ‎Aug 02 2018

Hello,

I noticed that network services like "Client for Microsoft Networks" and "File and Printer Sharing []" cannot be uninstall anymore, only unticked. Is there a way to get those uninstalled like in Windows 2016 ?

Many thanks,

Kleiner Sack

You can always disable SMB1 and SMB2+ server fully using the steps in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2696547/how-to-detect-enable-and-disable-smbv1-smbv2-and-sm...
