Computer Speed Gains Erased by Modern Software

  118 11,718 9.9 Batchfile

  🚀 An open and lightweight modification to Windows, designed to optimize performance, privacy and security.

  

You could take a look at AtlasOS[0]. It's a patchset made to be applied on top of a fresh Windows 10 22H2 installation, and aims to perform many of the optimizations you've mentioned. I've been using it for about 8 months without any issues, but I still have a fresh Windows installation in a VM on hand in case of some emergency situation.

They're also currently in the process of making it easier to configure with more granularity, but the current version still allows you to toggle a lot of the important options post-installation.

  A Collection of Scripts Which Disable / Remove Windows 10 Features and Apps

Hmm looking here: https://docs.atlasos.net/troubleshooting/removed-features/

It just seems to remove a lot of security modules, out of all the bloat out there why would I want to just remove the sec modules? Also it now adds an option to include those, so all in all, it then removes:

- Some APPX and UWP applications

- Logging of Network Configuration

- Microsoft Edge and WebView

- Restore Points and System Reset

- Telemetry

- Windows Error Reporting

- Windows Updates

- Hyper-V and VBS

- Background Apps

- Disk Defragmentation

- User Account Control (UAC)

I can use https://github.com/W4RH4WK/Debloat-Windows-10 and https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10 and https://www.oo-software.com/en/ooappbuster to do most of the debloating and telemetry tasks.

I don't see the point of removing

- Disk Defragmentation (how much does this even affect general usage?)

- UAC (?)

- Hyper-V (since this is an optional feature anyway)
