Windows10Debloater VS Windows-On-Reins

Stuff has been uninstalled from Settings and Control Panel and CTT's Utility (to enable some settings I would've enabled through Terminal commands already) and Sycnex's Debloater (to uninstall some apps) have been used. It's nothing major as I only uninstalled apps I could download from the store if necessary and made sure not to delete any major system components except Edge maybe. I have read through every menu and setting any of these utilities has brought up thoroughly to ensure I didn't do so. I believe I did my research before enabling/disabling a setting.

I've used this script for every new install of Windows and it makes the experience quite a bit better: https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater .

17k stars on GitHub so lots of people agree.

if you wanna go even further in getting the most out of your laptop you can use this debloating tool to get rid of the extra stuff Microsoft puts into windows that youll never use.

https://github.com/gordonbay/Windows-On-Reins WoR is more robust and focuses on privacy/security, but it may break or remove some features you'd prefer to keep.

Hey so i saw someone post about this script - https://github.com/gordonbay/Windows-On-Reins

Not the OP of the comment to which you replied, there’s several but maybe he’s talking about Windows On Reigns. Just be careful that the default settings are very extreme. They disable windows appx support, so no Microsoft store, or similar things. Also it disables the event scheduler, so certain apps will cause errors when trying to add themselves to startup and stuff like that (which is the point) but if it’s something you want it won’t work, like let’s say MSI afterburner starting with windows and applying your pc settings. My suggestion is going through the config part of the script and adapting it to your needs.

I downloaded a powershell script from https://github.com/gordonbay/Windows-On-Reins/blob/master/wor.ps1 to harden my windows installation, and I ran it accidentally without changing the default configurations. Now my WiFi not being detected or shown in the taskbar. it's not a driver issue as i can see the wifi settings in the network adaptor section of control panel.

Or Windows amelriorated.
