# Add or hide features on the Windows client OS # Add or hide Windows features
**Applies to**: Windows includes optional features that aren't installed by default, but you can add later. These features are called [Features on Demand](/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/features-on-demand-v2--capabilities), and can be installed at any time. Some of these features are language resources like language packs or handwriting support. On organization-owned devices, you can control access to these other features. You can use group policy or mobile device management (MDM) policies to hide the UI from users, or use Windows PowerShell to enable or disable specific features.
- Windows 10 ## Use the Windows Settings app to add or uninstall features
- Windows 11
The Windows client operating systems include more features that you and your users can install. These features are called [Features on Demand](/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/features-on-demand-v2--capabilities) (opens another Microsoft web site), and can be installed at any time. On your organization-owned devices, you may want to control access to these other features. ### Windows 11
This article: 1. Open the Start menu and search for **Settings**.
- Shows you how to add features using the user interface. 1. In the Settings app, search for "optional" and select **Optional features**.
- Lists the group policies and Mobile device management (MDM) policies to hide Windows Features.
- Includes information on using Windows PowerShell to disable specific Windows Features.
If you're working on your own device, use the **Settings** app to add features. > [!TIP]
> You can also use the following shortcut to open it directly: [`ms-settings:optionalfeatures`](ms-settings:optionalfeatures).
## Add or uninstall features 1. To add a feature:
1. In the Search bar, search for "apps", and select **Apps and features**. 1. Select **View features** next to "Add an optional feature."
2. Select **Optional features** > **Add a feature**.
3. Select the feature you want to add, like **XPS Viewer**, and then select **Install.** 1. Find the feature you want to add, like **XPS Viewer**. Select the box to add it. You can select multiple features.
1. Select **Next**. Review the list of features you selected, and then select **Install** to add the selected features.
1. To uninstall a feature:

1. Expand the section, and select **Uninstall**.
### Windows 10
1. In the Search bar, search for "apps" and select **Apps and features**.
1. Select **Optional features** > **Add a feature**.
1. Select the feature you want to add, like **XPS Viewer**, and then select **Install.**
When the installation completes, the feature is listed in **Apps & features**. In **Apps & features** > **Optional features** > **More Windows features**, there are more features that you and your users can install. When the installation completes, the feature is listed in **Apps & features**. In **Apps & features** > **Optional features** > **More Windows features**, there are more features that you and your users can install.
To uninstall a feature, open the **Settings** app. Select the feature, and then select **Uninstall**. To uninstall a feature, open the **Settings** app. Select the feature, and then select **Uninstall**.
## Use Group Policy or MDM to hide Windows Features ## Use group policy or MDM policies to hide Windows features
By default, the OS might show Windows Features, and allow users to install and uninstall these optional apps and features. By default, the OS might show Windows features and allow users to install and uninstall these optional apps and features. To hide Windows features on your user devices, you can use group policy or an MDM provider like Microsoft Intune.
To hide Windows Features on your user devices, you can use Group Policy (on-premises), or use an MDM provider, such as Microsoft Intune (cloud). ### Group policy
### Group Policy If you use group policy, use the `User Configuration\Administrative Template\Control Panel\Programs\Hide "Windows Features"` policy. By default, this policy may be set to **Not configured**, which means users can add or remove features. When this setting is **Enabled**, the settings page to add optional features is hidden on the device.
If you use Group Policy, use the `User Configuration\Administrative Template\Control Panel\Programs\Hide "Windows Features"` policy. By default, this policy may be set to **Not configured**, which means users can add or remove features. When this setting is **Enabled**, the Windows Features is hidden on the device. You can't use group policy to disable specific Windows features, such as XPS Viewer. If you want to disable specific features, use [Windows PowerShell](#use-windows-powershell-to-disable-specific-features).
You can't use Group Policy to disable specific Windows Features, such as XPS Viewer. If you want to disable specific features, use [Windows PowerShell](#use-windows-powershell-to-disable-specific-features) (in this article).
If you want to hide the entire **Apps** feature in the Settings app, use the `User Configuration\Administrative Template\Control Panel\Programs\Hide "Programs and Features" page` policy. If you want to hide the entire **Apps** feature in the Settings app, use the `User Configuration\Administrative Template\Control Panel\Programs\Hide "Programs and Features" page` policy.
### MDM ### MDM
Using Microsoft Intune, you can use [Administrative Templates](/mem/intune/configuration/administrative-templates-windows) (opens another Microsoft web site) or the [Settings Catalog](/mem/intune/configuration/settings-catalog) (opens another Microsoft web site) to hide Windows Features. Using Microsoft Intune, you can use [administrative templates](/mem/intune/configuration/administrative-templates-windows) or the [settings catalog](/mem/intune/configuration/settings-catalog) to hide Windows features.
If you want to hide the entire **Apps** feature in the Settings app, you can use a configuration policy on Intune enrolled devices. For more information on the Control Panel settings you can configure, see [Control Panel settings in Microsoft Intune](/mem/intune/configuration/device-restrictions-windows-10#control-panel-and-settings). If you want to hide the entire **Apps** feature in the Settings app, you can use a configuration policy on Intune enrolled devices. For more information on the settings you can configure, see [Control Panel and Settings device restrictions in Microsoft Intune](/mem/intune/configuration/device-restrictions-windows-10#control-panel-and-settings).
## Use Windows PowerShell to disable specific features ## Use Windows PowerShell to disable specific features
To disable specific features, you can use the Windows PowerShell [Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature](/powershell/module/dism/disable-windowsoptionalfeature) command. There isn't a Group Policy that disables specific Windows Features. To disable specific features, use the Windows PowerShell [Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature](/powershell/module/dism/disable-windowsoptionalfeature) cmdlet.
If you're looking to automate disabling specific features, you can create a scheduled task. Then, use the scheduled task to run your Windows PowerShell script. For more information about Task Scheduler, see [Task Scheduler for developers](/windows/win32/taskschd/task-scheduler-start-page). > [!NOTE]
> There isn't a group policy that disables specific Windows features.
Microsoft Intune can also execute Windows PowerShell scripts. For more information, see [Use PowerShell scripts on Windows client devices in Intune](/mem/intune/apps/intune-management-extension). To automate disabling specific features, create a scheduled task to run a PowerShell script. For more information about Windows task scheduler, see [Task Scheduler for developers](/windows/win32/taskschd/task-scheduler-start-page).
## Restore Windows features Microsoft Intune can also run PowerShell scripts. For more information, see [Use PowerShell scripts on Windows client devices in Intune](/mem/intune/apps/intune-management-extension).
- If you use Group Policy or MDM to hide Windows Features or the entire Apps feature, you can set the policy to **Not configured**. Then, deploy your policy. When the device receives the policy, the features are configurable. To enable specific features, use the [Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature](/powershell/module/dism/enable-windowsoptionalfeature) cmdlet.
- Using Windows PowerShell, you can also enable specific features using the [Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature](/powershell/module/dism/enable-windowsoptionalfeature) command.
Another useful PowerShell cmdlet is [Get-WindowsOptionalFeature](/powershell/module/dism/get-windowsoptionalfeature). Use this cmdlet to view information about optional features in the current OS or a mounted image. This cmdlet returns the current state of features, and whether a restart may be required when the state changes.

# Per-user services in Windows 10 and Windows Server # Per-user services in Windows
**Applies to**:

Per-user services are services that are created when a user signs into Windows or Windows Server and are stopped and deleted when that user signs out. These services run in the security context of the user account - this provides better resource management than the previous approach of running these kinds of services in Explorer, associated with a preconfigured account, or as tasks.

# Changes to Service Host grouping in Windows 10 # Service host grouping in Windows 10
**Applies to**:
- Windows 10
The **Service Host (svchost.exe)** is a shared-service process that serves as a shell for loading services from DLL files. Services are organized into related host groups, and each group runs inside a different instance of the Service Host process. In this way, a problem in one instance doesn't affect other instances. Service Host groups are determined by combining the services with matching security requirements.
