@yesnoo: All of them except Xbox; currently its not yet my priority to clean those pre-installed due to trivial task to do and schedule.

I rather choose them than those adware based program.

OneDrive is already a built in feature to sync your files using your Microsoft Account. The thing you will do is disable through registry tweak whch you can find on internet.

Only Weather and News here remaining uninstalled
So you have removed "optional features" too from the startmenu i.e in startmenu optional features is there & you can rightclick & uninstall?
If you have removed "optional features" from startmenu... can you check settings - system - apps & features - here on the top "manage optional features" is there or not & opens or not?

No I removed apps using the command prompt and yes i can uninstall the apps from the start menu but i i prefer to do that from cmd coz some can only be uninstalled from cmd prompt like xbox etc and Sorry friend i reverted back to win 8 coz win 10 is buggy for me

I just want to now if "optional features" is uninstalled then it is still accessible or not from settings - system - app & features - manage optional features.

I dont want to uninstall "optional features" but dont like to see it in startup menu seperately when it can be accessed through settings.

So was wondering if "optional features" is removed from startmenu with any methods...is it still available in settings?

@yesnoo, although I've not yet graduated to the status of "newbie" (yet) with Windows 10, I did a search for you which returned
this http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/7565-optional-features-manage-windows-10-a.html
Even if it does not answer your question completely, I hope it helps.:)

Edit: You'll find (below step #2) options for history, adding, & removal of individual options.
Thanks.:):)
