    Hi, I see that when you start a new project Unity automatically add these Packages: Ads, Analytics Library, In-App Purchase, TextMesh Pro, Collaborate. Since I don't use them, every new project I have to manually remove them. Is there a way to start without these additional packages?

    Thank you!

    Hello @beatdesign,

    At this current juncture, you have to remove them from the project through the Package Manager UI or by editing the project's manifest.json. In the future, it will be possible to start a project from a empty template or select which package you explicitly want included in your project.

    Thanks,

    There is already another thread about the same thing:
    Default packages

    I have posted a "workaround" for removing the packages.

    Hello @_karl

    That is indeed a way to make sure those packages are not loaded by default. The only "flag" would be that, after you have changed the Editor manifest, if you attempt to start Unity in a no-network, restricted network or closed network situation, Unity will give you an error message and won't boot until you restore the manifest to it's original state.

    Cheers,
