      Too little too late; Windows long ago crossed a line with it's force-feeding of ridiculously huge "updates" and unwanted gigabytes of gratuitous apps that nobody wants, where you can only uninstall a couple of kilobytes as if that would make any difference: A combination of Android and Linux is the only alternative to get anything done once they've nuked Win7 (and I hate Linux after a brief dabble 10 years ago)
      There may be some people who have no choice and have to slave away on Win10, but even the most ardent Linux skeptics (and I'm one ofe them ) are gritting their teeth and rolling up their sleeves to figure out some way to make that confused tangle of work-arounds get them through the day because they've finally had enough... #orwecouldjustbangrockstogether

      The video is very helpful, but I have some questions left:
      1. The huge topic about services - there are a lot of them and some of them are just eating up resources. It will be great to have detailed guide on what services could be disabled without unwanted effects;
      2. After disabling the telemetry, which is partially done by blacklisting addresses of MS servers, sometimes feels like windows loads noticeably longer due to attempts to reach to servers. On low-end machines it feels very bad. What to do with that? Is it possible to disable some bloat functionality by physically preventing those services/dll's from being loaded and executed?
      3. Comparison with LTS version of win 10 may help a lot!

    Before this video: RAM = 60% usage, CPU = 62% usage, HDD = 40% usage.
    After this video (with tweaks particular to my setup): RAM = 40% usage, CPU = 8% usage, HDD = 2% usage.
    I'm normally pretty good with performance tweaks, but I wasn't even aware of how much bloat there is in Win10. "ShutUp" shut down a lot of unnecessary services that I thought I had killed, and so far I have had better-than-fresh-install performance already. I will be recommending this to many of my friends. THANK YOU!

    Word of caution: some of this stuff can really ruin your day if you're unlucky like me. I have a new comp (2 months old) for gaming and music production. Doing this screwed up gaming ( later found out it had something to do with removing registry keys dealing with Microsoft Store), but that wasn't the big deal. For some reason, this program decided to erase most of the VST plugins I was using, as well as removing quite a few apps I use in sample splicing, etc. when I went to restore back to the restore point I made just before doing all this, it did nothing to fix it. I ended up having to go back to a restore point a week before. Most of the plugins came back, BUT, all the sounds I had created were gone. So, any songs I had written using the VSTs will never sound the same. NOT Chris Titus' fault by ANY means, just a head's up for those walking along the same path. All in all, I wanted to streamline my computer, and ended up working to get what I could back, and eventually have to live with losing close to 50 hours of work on music.

It is a compact one that can boot from CD or memory stick. It saves all your work in a compressed file so Windows doesn't even know about it (other than one file)

  • @PhilippeVerdy
    @PhilippeVerdy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    Beware about what the "debloater" does: for example it removes video codecs you need for many websites. Codecs do not cause your PC to be slow, they are only active in softwares needing them to play audio/videos encode with them (and if you remove them, you will not hear/see the audio/video at all that you intended to play, there will be no replacement in many places with alternative streams encoded differently, or you'll endup using some other less efficient MPEG codecs that have poorer quality and require more bandwidth on the network, and less abilities to use fast forward/backward in them. The codecs in Windows are not necessarily bad, even if there are a few better implementations (but most high-performing implementation are not free). If you install any mediaplayer app, they will ask you to reinstall the missing codecs they need to play yourt medias.
    Be aware that there are "free" codecs on the web that are in fact malicious or could cause instabilities in your hardware because of unsafe optimizations. This should not occur with the codecs provided by Windows, and at least they will be updated regularly as necessary (this won't happen with many "free codec packages", that also come with additional bloatwares including apps making recurrent internet accesses to report your usage, send profiling data, and download newer unstable versions).

    Have done my first debloat with a customized Blacklist and want to kanow some things:
    1- Will disabling "Microsoft remote desktop" prevent me from Teamviewering or Zooming ?
    2- Will disabling "Microsoft ExperienceLanguagePackmylanguage" revert my Windows OS to English ? or will it remain in 'my language' ?
    3- The W10debloater offers us to uninstall .NET 3.5 that is, I presume, .Net Framework 3.5. Isn't there a contradiction for the Blacklist proposes to get rid of all .Net Framework version in the OS ? I unchecked all .Net Framework checkboxes for I know that some programs requires (at least when I was on XP) Framework of specific versions and if you didn't have it, it was a PITA (pain in where you think) to install the suite because there is a specific order to install them and you can't just install a specific version without having installed all the previous versions *in order*.
    Last observation : O&O is a... "Bold Microsoft Partner" !!!??? You know what this implies ? That the program is created (or vetted) with the help of Microsoft !!! This seems to defeat its purpose isn't it ? If Microsoft have a hand in the O&O making, how can we be sure that the spy telemetry is really disabled and not simply hidden from the OS scrutiny and still work under a cloak of invisibility ?

    Clean up 10 Windows in 3 steps:
    1. For crystal-clear glass, sponge on then squeegee off soapy water. Use horizontal strokes on one side of the pane and vertical strokes on the other to make streaks easier to spot.
    2. Buff out small scratches with toothpaste.
    3. To remove paint specks or sticky labels, dampen and scrape off with a plastic razor blade.

      Sir, your facetious recommendations are worthy of trying, which makes much more sense than the ill-fated advice of Mr Titus. I was initially tempted to try to clean my Windows installation but when I saw the manner in which he went about it without further explanation of what was eventually going to be permanently removed as well as meddling with the Registry, I immediately re-evaluated my decision and left well enough alone. I was quite disappointed by Mr Titus in not warning his viewers of the potential risks of meddling with the software innards. I will never trust any future video whose content will be hosted by Mr Titus.🙄

    Hey I got a huge problem after watching this video can somebody help me please? I cant open task manager and many other options, i cant reset my computer and cannot deinstall or install windows. It could be because I deleted everything under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion (at 9:40 in this video) and now I cannot even open this file either. Also by accident I did klick on weird settings on the reccomended programm O&O SHUTUP10 ,but i cannot open this program anymore either.

    This does work. I did have to reinstall my Book Baazar ebook reader and a Solitare software. But that was no sweat.
    Personally I used Glary Utilities to see what tasks are scheduled. I have been into regedit a time or 2 and a single mistake there can cause you days of grief and frustration. But overall, very good stuff. Agree his intro should not say we are not going to download anything when that is the first thing he did.
    But it does work, and it certainly cleans out the start area. So 15 min of time spent putting the stuff you want there is time well spent.
    Just find an app, right click, pin to start. If you use it a lot once in start you can right click again, more, pin to taskbar.
    Two thumbs up for me, have one more slow puter to do today, my wifes. We will see how bad the damage is.

    Turning off hibernation also disables fastboot, which means now a shutdown does the same as a restart as far as bootup is concerned which is good. A lot of people when stuff doesn't work right, turn their computer off and back on and it still doesn't work. That's because windows wasn't restarting but just doing a hibernation hybrid shutdown. I really wish they would make it clear to the user, because the boot up as far as turning the computer off and back on or restarting look identical.
