Honestly, this app was a total game changer for me. THANK YOU.
You're doing a great job, keep it up!
12:56 Actually in Europe we can now uninstall Edge since March update, thanks DMA 👍
Hopefully the possibility to uninstall it become Word wide, not just for Europe citizens
I'm in Europe and I can't
Yeah one would thing there would be some way to fudge this outside EEA at least since the functionality exist within windows now (both 10 and 11). How it works is that you can uninstall the edge app itself, and there is a separate edge webview thing that is kept on the system in the app list that can't be uninstalled, presumably for the system functions that still need an embedded web view.
@@CompuB1t same
@@lussor1 I think Microsoft has not apply any official way to uninstall Edge.
I know there's an EU regulation but MS has not do anything, as far as I know.
@@CompuB1t if you delay your windows updates for 2 years as recommended, then you will be able to remove edge in March 2026 ...
Windows Utility is the only thing, that makes Windows 11 usable for me these days... Thx for keeping it up to date and introducing new features to it!
And WindHawk
@@PR-cj8pd Does any of this actually stop the core spyware that in build into windows? from my understanding windows update would have to be removed in order to accomplish that.
@@Vicorcivius If spyware is a concern, just use Linux. Windows is closed source so by FSF standards it's spyware by default.
@@supra107 "closed source" people been making mods for windows for over 10 years and i doubt its closed source
no, i am not sponsoring. But after tweaking for several years this is the easiest option without breaking windows.
use this script all the time, love it!
A big hug from a humble content creator and psychologist from Brazil. The number of times it has made my use of the PC easier, more practical and faster is countless. You are incredible. I don't understand anything about programming to be able to help with the project, but I will contribute with 10 bucks next month. Thank you very much.😎
Thanks Chris. I've used this for quite a while and bought the exe wrapper last year.
This script makes Windows almost usable for a 25+ year Linux user and 10+ year macOS user.
You HAVE to if you want to play any games. Proton doesn't work on anything thats not a Steam Deck. idc what anybody online says or has working... You just need to dual boot...
@@VioFax This is not factually correct. I got a lot of games working through proton. But I would agree that it would be much simpler to just game on Windows, at least for now.
@@VioFaxlol. you're wrong. Unless you try to play some pirated games or sth.
Otherwise, Steam and proton works on most modern distro that carry BOTH lib32 and lib64 and one just follows Steam installation instruction. Other than that, to make it even easier, use Steam flatpak, you don't even need lib32 on host AT ALL.
I use Arch, fefora, Ubuntu, Debian, and I use flatpak Steam. And out of 500+ games I own on Steam, minimum 400+ works when you press Play
@@VioFaxskill issue
@@VioFax my brother in christ, i've been runnung Nobara Linux and playing Cyberpunk for the last year, what horsecrap are you talking about
I reload my windows every once in a while and this changes what could be a week long process into just a day or two for me. absolute game changer.
This is really cool :)
I really like the import/export JSON option. A roadblock I sometimes encounter when I feel the need to refresh my system is a worry that I have to remember all by base 'must-haves' :D
Thank you so much Chris.
I use win 11 in a recording studio. Windows can be set up in 2 hours - all the other stuff takes 2 years, so if MS buggers around with my system, unless I can re install from a disk image - I'm screwed. Since you gave me the ability to lock down the system, I was always at their mercy. Now I can strip-down windows the the very basics and it just works - every day!
Thanks
Oh yes. The OG script to go to every time. Edit: thanks for adding portmaster. I run it with Mullvad
Thank you Chris and everyone that works on this project, you guys are awesome and we appreciate all the work ❤
I spent the $10 to support this for the executable not because I need it as an executable but this is one of those tools I never want to see go and I have no regrets supporting it. This is an amazing utility, thanks for all the hard work on it from you and the contributors.
This has been one of my favourite tools for like 2 years now, every single Windows install I perform (ive done hundreds the past 2 years), every machine that needs a kick of life, this has been a gem
Thanks so much for this, Chris! I always run it from PS, but just bought the exe to support the project. : )
Been using it for awhile now and just fixed a friend's laptop with it this morning. New changes wee a great surprise!!!
I prefer other operating systems, but like so many folks I have to use Windows for some things. Thank you for this utility. It makes taming Windows a breeze and makes my Windows experience as FOSS/Linux-like as possible.
only if win 11 had less ram usage other than that this tool makes windows 11 viable
@@hondurasen3632 You can try Windows 11 Ghost Spectre, it takes just 1GB of RAM...
@@hondurasen3632 Try to disable some unnecessary Services ;-)
Thanks Chris, I've been using it for quite sometime and it saves so much time when reinstalling windows!!!
A big thanks to you and all the other contributors of this project
First time the install tool actually worked for me! As always thanks for the brilliant work!
Thank you for your kindness, Chris. You've put a lot of effort into this tool, and it's working perfectly.
Hello, can you add a feature for a pure gaming system? Like remove everything that we dont need for gaming for example disable services that we dont need for pure gaming. Or some low system latency tweaks. Thanks for all your work!
Thank you and the community for all of your hard work!
This worked a treat for me! Thanks Chris and the community, tip of the hat to you kind people!
Hey Chris, thanks for the update. Been supporting you on this project through your website for a few years now and just want to let you know how much many here appreciate your efforts. Keep up the grear work.
I just found out about this utility from an article talking about staying away from custom ISOs and to debloat after the fact. Awesome find! Also the way I chuckled so hard when you said Microsoft is on this "green kick or whatever" haha. I mean I get it, but I also like max performance from the expensive machine I built, tyvm. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much Chris - You’re the Best! Also thanks to all your contributors!
Bought this and love it! Subbed as well! I used to spend hours upon HOURS to tweak stuff to debloat windows but with dam thing it took seconds lol.
Thank you again Chris and to all the other contributors. Great job.
Just came here to say THANK YOU. I've used the tool once couple years ago and forgot about it, thanks to you now I will add this to start each windows installation.
I just did a clean install for Windows 10 and this helped a lot! Being able to install a lot of software quickly with just a few clicks it's a huge time saver.
The only problem I had is that it installed Firefox in japanese for some reason, I just uninstalled it and manually got it from their website, everything else was fine.
Titus ! Outstanding, both yourself and your contributors can consider your tummies well and truly tickled, keep it up.
a Huge Thanks to you Chris & all the contributors...
Thank you so much Chris for all of your efforts 😉
I always pull up this script when I install a windows VM, makes it so nice and clean, thank you so much!
I just did a fresh install of windows last night, what a freakishly well timed video.
I love it Chris, i use it all the time on my builds! Thank you!!!
That new O&O pop up is really great, love having that agency for..everything but also to ensure nothing can go wrong. This utility is absolutely amazing at making windows so much less bloated.
The only thing i've noticed in both of my quite powerful rigs, is that after i run them for the first time, in regards to tweaks, some games like WoW will (rarely) have weird network issue like, basically being stuck like waiting for like 10-15 secs to get a response from the server (on a fiber connection, 5800x and 7950x3D CPUs, there are no slouches in handing...WoW) and then everything comes up all together in the screen and mashes up in an accelerated way, and again, this only happens after i run the script on said PCs for the first time, i have never experienced this on any installation which i have not applied the script and since building and fixing PCs is my job you understand in how many other PCs i've tested this, thousands in fact, so, does anyone know if the script changes something with the network somehow and causes that phenomenon to happen because as it is running the tweaks some times i see ti setting a network related value from zero to an astronomical value and i wonder if it's related to that, maybe it's just completely unrelated tbh.
Thanks to anyone contributing to the script by the way, sincerely.
Even just the apps tab in this tool is already the best winget gui ever made! Absolutely quintessential for me and for my work!
I fear that TH-cam may take this video down as Microsoft's request. I will download this video right away.
Thanks to you and all the other contributors of this project. This is awesome and keep up the excellent work. Much appreciated.
Excellent tool my friend Chris!!! Congratulations!!! Thanks!!!
i been using this tool after every new install and occasionally to reset everything after updates. i love it.
THANK YOU. You changed the way i use windows
Made my own fork and customized the programs that it can install, some are broken for some reason I don't understand, but overall it's extremely quick to install the bulk of my program needs. Those broken programs are a quick and dirty job afterwards anyway, but overall when I do a clean install this saves me at least a couple hours.
Just got an entire new setup. I have been using this to optimize and install everything i can. It have worked wonders. I wanna thank you.
I love your tool, I have been using it for a long time as something essential every time I have installed Windows. Thank you very much for your amazing work
Man, how have I not heard of your awesome utility! I didn't run all the tweaks yet but running them one at a time. Reminds me of this guy Black Viper that had a utility way back in the day. I used to run his utility when I gamed and it would disable a bunch of windows services and start your system up super clean. Cool stuff & Sub'd!
my go-to tool every time. every SINGLE time. Thank you for your hardwork!
I love this script! Thanks for creating it and supporting it. One of the best software apps for Windows 10 of all time. You're the best!
I wasn't using it because I didn't mind for the tweaks and don't want to run into problems. But the fact you can check boxes and put it as a json for an import later in case you get a new pc or format... that's just amazing!
Yeah. I noticed it changed yesterday. I debloat my laptop yesterday and I'm thankful for this tool but i hope there's more way to change the bg color.
Great stuff, ty for all of you guys.
I cannot appreciate this enough, thank you Chris 🙏🏼
Although I've been monitoring your content about this utility for some time, this is the first time I've used it. Excellent work all!
Bought the exe a couple years ago, well worth it. I followed a few of his videos , and alone they improved my system greatly. Happy to support Chris and his amazing work and with the growing community of people that can actually figure out the technical details , it’s really awesome. Thank you Chris for all of your generosity and all the help over the years and the updates. My stripped down version of win 10 runs so great I’ve been afraid to do my usual yearly fresh install , lol.
I use it all the time and I love it. Whenever I need to set up friends and family pcs I make sure to use it everytime.Thank you so much Chris❤
This is the 2nd step after any Windows setup i do.. first, i install drivers, and then i do essential tweaks.
Hey! Thank you to everybody involved in this project! Great effort!
Is it save to use this on a windows 10 installation as well? :)
Hands down best util, been using it for years now :)
Nice to see it evolve over the years
Great work Chris
Wish that Microsoft or devs make a special version of the Windows focused on gaming performance as lean as possible, with minimal telemetry and CPU consumption.
Just stumbled on this video, amazing work, liked and subbed, thanks
Chris thank you for this awesome utility! I reinstalled W11 with english (world) and now everything is working perfectly!
I can't imagine using fresh installs without this tool
Appriciate your work..I did try the essential tweaks (only the ones you have checked) and it put seach and weather on my taskbar... The weather on my task bar I couldn't remove. I found it strange because taskbar widgets are disabled....thank you for putting a restore point in the selection....
Many thanks for this helpful and informative update. Much appreciated.
Chris, Loving your tool, Subscribed. Thank you Chris.
I love this Utility; thanks so much for the update!
The storage sense bug was something I reported in Issues and am happy to see og-mrk could fix :D
Phenomenal project! Been using it since the beginning and i couldn't be happier with it ( :
Thank you Chris. I've been a huge fan of this script. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for this tool, this has saved my bacon so many times cleaning up installs and new systems.
Its so good to just launch a line that brings up the holy grail.
This app changed the game for me at work. It took working on machine optimizations from 3 to 4 hours down to 30 mins to an hour depending on the hardware.
I love the automated part that was added I use it all the time I saved a profile for laptop or desktop. One simple command and done it's such a time saver.
Keep up the good work. Best 10 I ever spent. Not needed, but great to have readily available.
It's like from the Get go Chris, The explanation's of how Windows / Linux works from you particularly, inspire an honesty and Trust that is always a shady area when dealing with such complexity for a User / Novice who could never grasp in reality. Thanks
It so cool to see updates in real time! I remember when it was first released.
I really appreciate this tool and all the hard work from everyone involved. Thank you.
Thank you very much for this!
Ok.. this is cool.. I just bought your exe tool to support. but honestly its just as easy to do the command line.. omg this will save so much time .. I can do it anywhere / anytime. wow.. GAME changer .. thank you so much..
Thanks Chris - i also use the Utility all the time
Your are awesome. Made my life with windows installment a breeze!
I love this project. It makes life so much easier, not just with a new install, but getting a system that's been up and running for awhile running better. Thanks Chris!
Thank you Chris for this tool, i use it all the time in my systems, is just wonderful 🙂
Wow, I never even knew this existed. Just bought the EXE wrapper to support the good work, you guys rock!
Thank you for the hard work❤
I've noticed the changes the past few days! Only pet peeve is I'm not sure in the past if I've already used a tweak from WinUtil and if Windows Update enabled something I was not wanting so when I redo a tweak to make sure it changed it might revert the changes like the undo tweaks button. I'd notice services and programs popping back up after running the tweaks again.
I'm so excited for that MicroWin. Been looking around the internet for something like that for quite a while now. That's gonna be one of my Main tools for experimenting builds.
chris, what a fantastic job you made. it had to cost so much time to compile all that.
Great job, man! Kudos!
Chris...I contributed as I wanted to help in a small way.👍 ps love all the extra functions it offers.
You are the man that's for sure I've used this several times and I love it....
Can't thank you enough for this tool, makes whipping windows into line a breeze!
I probably format my Windows installation once a month. Thank you for saving my hand from worsened carpal tunnel. Keep up the great work, brother. God bless you!
Chris...this tool is so good.
Dunno why it took me so long to get to know about this amazing tool.
Thank you
Thank you for your hard work!
Can you add Visual C++ from 2005 till before 2015, that will be a very good addition to the list
thanks so much for this!
Been using the script regularly with my OS experimentation. Love it. Is the top taskbar rainmeter? can you make a video on your rainmeter setup if so?
I have been using this tool with every single windows installed for my own, family or friends for the last three years, if you see any computer where I've ever been, you will find this in the history of the powershell
Awesome info! Thanks
