Much faster query solution! In bold text, add your table name and column name to be remove. You can add as many fields as you want to remove.

DECLARE @query nvarchar(max)=(SELECT string_agg(COLUMN_NAME,',') FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME='YOURTABLENAME'

AND COLUMN_NAME NOT IN ('REMOVEDCOLOUMN',.........))

SET @query ='select '+@query+' FROM YOURTABLENAME' EXEC sp_executesql @query;
