windows-terminal-quake VS Bulk-Crap-Uninstaller

I use the third-party https://github.com/flyingpie/windows-terminal-quake (from before an official quake mode was added to Windows Terminal, and this one works better anyway) and it opens a window for an instant on startup before minimizing to the system tray.

Im also a big fan of Quake-style console (using ddterm on Linux) and I am happy to tell you that Windows Terminal has a Quake companion app that is worth a try :)

I know it's not ideal because separate binary and all but https://github.com/flyingpie/windows-terminal-quake has been good to me :)

I've been using https://github.com/flyingpie/windows-terminal-quake for a while now. If its implemented anywhere near it, please be aware of z-index issues especially if i've got "always on top" apps.

It seems nice but using WSL(2) Windows Terminal is noticeably faster for me, same compared to most other alternatives including Cmder/ConEmu.

While Windows Terminal doesn't have a settings UI (yet[0]) it does allow for theming, this page[1] features a range of color schemes that you can define and set in your settings.json.

There's also a wrapper that allows for quake style drop down [2] until it's implemented by Windows Terminal itself[0].

Is it sluggish in the current state ? Have you tried to do a 'real' complete uninstall using BC-Uninstaller, deleting all the leftovers in the registry that might be corrupted or sth ?

It's not exactly a debloater, but https://www.bcuninstaller.com/ will help you to get rid of majority of bloatware. It's not automatic unfortunately, you need to know what you're doing.

Try this: https://github.com/Klocman/Bulk-Crap-Uninstaller

try uninstalling via BCUninstaller and reboot your PC afterwards.

Bulk Crap Uninstaller

BulkCrap Uninstaller works well when it comes to uninstalling things and finding leftovers.
