Unmanaged Active Layer Bulk Remover

This XrmToolBox tool allows you to remove the unmanaged (active) layers from the solution components of the selected solution (developed by Maciej Kornacki).

If the components are customised directly in the environment in which the managed solution is installed, the changes from the subsequently imported managed solution will not take effect because unmanaged customisations reside at the top layer for a component. An unmanaged layer of a component can be removed from the solution explorer but it needs to be done one at a time.

To remove unmanaged layers from multiple solution components, you can add components to a solution and use this tool to remove unmanaged layers in bulk.
