Resume

This project is a modified version of another project that was made for Debloat and Tweak Windows 10 for better performance and less issues, i've done some changes so it unninstall Apps that are less used, this keeps stability for games and daily drive.

There is a undo (if works), because i did a restoration point script before doing everything.

Use on a fresh windows install to note the differences, and if something breaks, you can rely on a pre-made restoration point and the fix-general-problems.ps1.

1. How to use

1.1 - Requirements

The Script-Win10.ps1 do not make everything automatically, follow these steps.

• Open OpenPowershellHere.cmd (For beginners) or the Powershell as admin on its folder.
• Enable execution of PowerShell scripts and Unblock PowerShell scripts and modules within this directory.

1.1.1 - Easy way (Prepare and Run once):

• Copy and Paste this entire line below on Powershell:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser -Force; ls -Recurse .ps1 | Unblock-File; .\"Win10Script.ps1"

Scripts can be run individually, pick what you need.

Known Issues

• ~Start menu Search~ (Fixed by enabling WSearch service)
• ~Sysprep will hang~ ...? (Don't know what's that)
• ~Xbox Wireless Adapter~ (Fixed by not disabling the XboxGipSvc service)
• Issues with Skype (Microsoft.SkypeApp app will be uninstalled)
• Fingerprint Reader / Facial Detection not Working (WbioSrvc service will be disabled)

How did i find specific Tweaks?

By using SysInternal Suite Procmon(64).exe i could track the SystemSettings.exe by filtering it per Process Name, then Clearing the list (Ctrl + X) and finally, applying an option of the Windows Configurations and searching the Registry Key inside Procmon(64).exe.

Screenshot

After finding the right register Key, you just need to Right-Click and select Jump To... to get on its directory.
