    Abstract: In general, the techniques of this disclosure describe a method that includes receiving, by a computing device, a user interaction for identifying one or more undesired features of a software program to be removed. The software program is provisioned on the computing device as a software binary. The method further including identifying, by the computing device, one or more execution paths of the software binary that implement the one or more undesired features. Identifying the one or more execution paths includes outputting an indication directing the user to interact with the one or more undesired features, generating undesired feature information of an execution log, and determining the one or more execution paths using the execution log. The method further includes removing, by the computing device, the one or more execution paths to generate a modified software binary.
