Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 10

In the following Install Instructions, please start at the step after the mention of clicking the Download button.

• To install specific RSAT tools on Windows 10 October 2018 Update or later
  • Starting with Windows 10 October 2018 Update, RSAT is included as a set of “Features on Demand” right from Windows 10. Do not download an RSAT package from this page. Instead, just go to “Manage optional features” in Settings and click “Add a feature” to see the list of available RSAT tools. Select and install the specific RSAT tools you need. To see installation progress, click the Back button to view status on the “Manage optional features” page.

• See the list of RSAT tools available via Features on Demand: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/features-on-demand-non-language-fod#remote-server-administration-tools-rsat

• In addition to installing via the graphical Settings app, you can also install specific RSAT tools via command line or automation using DISM /Add-Capability.

       One benefit of Features on Demand is that installed features persist across Windows 10 version upgrades!

       To uninstall specific RSAT tools on Windows 10 October 2018 Update or later

       On Windows 10, open the Settings app, go to "Manage optional features", select and uninstall the specific RSAT tools you wish to remove. Note that in some cases, you will need to manually uninstall dependencies. Specifically, if RSAT tool A is needed by RSAT tool B, then choosing to uninstall RSAT tool A will fail if RSAT tool B is still installed. In this case, uninstall RSAT tool B first, and then uninstall RSAT tool A. Also note that in some cases, uninstalling an RSAT tool may appear to succeed even though the tool is still installed. In this case, restarting the PC will complete the removal of the tool.

       See the list of RSAT tools including dependencies. In addition to uninstalling via the graphical Settings app, you can also uninstall specific RSAT tools via command line or automation using DISM /Remove-Capability.
