Description

This software sets up chocolatey and installs thirdparty software without asking if you want that and doesnt have a list of bloatware to uninstall. You just can debloat xbox and msstore.

Okay, you have a lot of good points.

This software sets up chocolatey and installs thirdparty software without asking if you want that and doesnt have a list of bloatware to uninstall.

  1. This caused me trouble too, as for other people, in the develop branch i don't do it automated anymore, and you can enable and disable these Tasks, and of course uninstall chocolatey. (#110) Also why is there an option to install cortana?
  2. I thought it was a good way to bring back, but even MS doesn't support it now, Cortana is removed by the "Apply Tweaks", I don't leave it on the system. I want to uninstall that spyware. Dont know if the maintainer really supports debloating of windows ...
  3. If you want someone who is every day spending time on the script, I would like to recommend Chris Titus software, he is doing it in C# library inside Powershell, XAML, and the UI is much more easy to navigate and simple (https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil). To be honest, I'm maintaining this to ease the system stress on CPU/RAM/Disk and see my system working without any trouble and being the closest to a "minimal" install of Windows. Tryed out, doenst helped and doesnt provide an uninstall script - so i reset my windows to get rid of
  4. Sorry if this isn't a fully customizable script, i wish i could do that, but I had to do a lot of things from scratch, or maybe a lot of stuff couldn't be as simple as it is right now. Btw, WinForms sucks, and I didn't have the guts to make like Chris' version with Xaml, even because I don't like copying other codes, but instead doing it my way.

I'll remove Cortana from the UI, it's really useless.
