Debloat Windows 10

This project is an effort to collect scripts which help debloating Windows 10.

I personally find the state Windows 10 comes in quite shocking / scary and want to have very slim, scriptable solution to remove and disable Windows 10's features most people do not need nor want.

The scripts provided consists of Powershell scripts, you should have no problems altering and using them to fit your needs. Do not forget to set the execution policy for Powershell scripts. And of course, how have to run them with administrative privileges.

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

Look at the scripts most of them are only a couple of lines long and it should be pretty obvious what they are doing.

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 versions.

Privacy Settings

I am also working on a script which sets the privacy settings of the current user. This is work in progress and far from being complete. I will try to keep them up-to-date as good as possible but do not rely on them since they may be outdated.

Liability

All scripts are provided as is and you use them at your own risk.

Contribute

I would be happy to extend the collection of scripts. Just open an issue or send me a pull request.
