Suggested Answer:
Step 1: Export the layout to an XML file.
When you have the Start layout that you want your users to see, use the Export-StartLayout cmdlet in Windows PowerShell to export the Start layout to an .xml file.
Step 2: Copy the layout file to a network share
The .xml file with the Start and taskbar layout must be located on shared network storage that is available to the users' computers when they sign in and the users must have Read-only access to the file.
Step 3: Create a Group Policy Object (GPO) and configure the Start Layout settings.

The picture is incorrect. the anser is correct. You use the XML file when you export it with GPO and you use the PPKG export with WCD. in the text there is nothing about WCD so it's XML.

Detailed steps to apply a custom Start layout to domain-joined computers: 1. Export the layout to an XML file: On the source computer, create a custom Start layout as desired using the layout modification XML file. Then, open PowerShell as an administrator and run the following command to export the layout to an XML file: Export-StartLayout -Path <path\layout.xml> 2. Create a Group Policy Object (GPO) and configure the Start Layout settings: On a domain controller, open the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) and create a new Group Policy Object (GPO) or edit an existing one. Then, configure the Start Layout setting by navigating to User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbar\Start Layout and enabling the Start Layout policy. Specify the path to the XML file exported in step 1. 3. Copy the layout file to a network share: Copy the layout XML file exported in step 1 to a network share that is accessible by all domain-joined computers.

Apply the GPO to domain-joined computers: Link the GPO created in step 2 to the appropriate organizational unit (OU) containing the domain-joined computers that you want to apply the custom Start layout to. Note that copying the layout file to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start menu on each computer is not necessary if you are using Group Policy to apply the custom Start layout. Similarly, exporting the layout to a PPKG file is not necessary unless you are deploying the custom Start layout to Windows 10 Pro or Windows 10 Home devices that are not domain-joined.

The key is this (You need to apply the custom Start layout to the domain-joined computers. The solution must minimize administrative effort). So...1. Export Layout, 2 Copy to Share 3. Create GPO. You can use WCD to create the PPKG but that is going to take to much time and effort.

If the Start layout is applied by Group Policy or MDM, and the policy is removed, the groups remain on the devices but become unlocked. To configure a partial Start screen layout 1 - Customize the Start layout. 2 - Export the Start layout. 3 - Open the layout .xml file. There is a <DefaultLayoutOverride> element. Add LayoutCustomizationRestrictionType="OnlySpecifiedGroups" to the DefaultLayoutOverride element as follows: 4 -Save the file and apply using any of the deployment methods. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/customize-and-export-start-layout
