  This works for me, although most stations it throws an error on the first line that the Process wasn't found, but this has removed it for any local Windows accounts that have previously logged on, or for a new user logging on.

  However, and I may be preaching to the choir, check your Windows Updates so they don't re-enable it, as well as when/if you do a Feature Update (ex. 1903 to 1909/2004), it will enable almost all disabled Windows built-in applications.

  Wouldn't GPO work better at this?

  I may be completely wrong, but the GPO settings will prevent future setups, but not erase old setups.

  The script actually did not work for me, again except for the currently logged in user. When i attempted to run this against a machine that had previous installations, It errored and actually added a new instance under the local admin account.

  I used decrapify (if you google it, you should be able to find it) and modified it on what I wanted installed and not installed. After each win10 workstation I run new workstation job that run the decrapify script and bunch of other things that i want installed.

  Again...and I may be wrong, this works great to prevent future installs, but does it remove existing installations for all users?
