Provisioned Windows Applications - (UNWANTED for $199.99)

I am trying to find a solution to prevent installation of all Provisioned Windows Applications during or/and after initial Windows 10 installation, without unpacking-mounting-modifing-unmounting-repacking the .wim file. Is there anything that can be created similar to Unattended.xlm or Autounattend.xml? I am just a simple Windows user with an IQ way below Microsoft standards, so I would appreciate any help if I could achive that without any headache involved. Windows 10 Pro is a god-given product for just $199.99 and I love it.

Up to 10 attachments (including images) can be used with a maximum of 3.0 MiB each and 30.0 MiB total.

Since your issue is related to the provisioning package, I will help you to change the tag to Windows-10-General so the engineers from the Windows 10 team could check your issue.

We know that provisioned apps lurk in the background of the system and only come into play whenever a new user logs on.
If we want to ensure that Windows only installs a certain set of apps or no apps at all when a user logs on for the first time, we have to remove all provisioned apps.

Please refer to this similar case for a help, note the following command:
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online
