5Running `Get-WindowsFeature |Where { $_.Installed }` in the powershell right after the installation will show all installed roles and features. – Gerald Schneider Sep 27 '17 at 09:50

How is this information useful? You'd anyway add the roles and features you need while configuring the server. – Esa Jokinen Sep 27 '17 at 13:12

I am looking for a complete list of Roles and Features that are installed by default on a Windows Server 2012 R2 server. I don't have a clean install to run that command. Thank you. – user6888062 Sep 29 '17 at 15:00

According to Microsoft, "The File and Storage Services role and the Storage Services role service are installed by default, but without any additional role services."
