|
tweak common settings and install basic software components.

## Description
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Windows 10 comes with a whole bunch features most (power-)user do not use /
|
|
|
|
|
want. Therefore the scripts provided should help getting rid of them easily.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I try to keep sensible defaults for all scripts but you'll be better of editing
|
|
|
|
|
them before execution to fit your personal needs. Don't forget to run them with
|
|
|
|
|
administrative privileges and have Powershell execution policy set to
|
|
|
|
|
`Unrestricted`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can run the script as an argument to Powershell with
|
|
|
|
|
execution policy set to bypass.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
C:\> PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File script-file.ps1
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I develop those scripts on a Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit virtual machine.
|
|
|
|
|
Please let me know if you encounter any issues with other Windows 10 versions.

2. Edit the scripts to fit your need.
|
|
|

## Interactivity
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The scripts are designed to run without any user-interaction. Modify them
|
|
|
|
|
beforehand. If you want a more interactive approach check out
