Nice! 👍 Thanks for sharing. How did you discover the registry key values❓

Very helpful, thanks.

Nice work Nick! Thank you!

Big Thanks @NickCraver for the nice Script.
for me missing is the old Windows Photoviewer, and i remove some other Packages... Here the Code. May you want to add something.

Remove SolitaireCollection

Get-AppxPackage solitairecollection | Remove-AppxPackage

Remove Office

Get-AppxPackage officehub | Remove-AppxPackage

Remove 3D Builder

Get-AppxPackage 3dbuilder | Remove-AppxPackage

Remove Windows Camera

Get-AppxPackage windowscamera | Remove-AppxPackage

Remove Get Started

A single command for deleting all built-in apps :) Some of them will give an error so maybe a good idea is to add -ea 0 at the end to not report on non-existing apps (Maybe you already attempted to delete them)

And btw. On my system at least, these two keys were not present so I recommend to do the exists check on these as well:

L:5-6

# Privacy: Let apps use my advertising ID: Disable
If (-Not (Test-Path "HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AdvertisingInfo")) {
    New-Item -Path HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AdvertisingInfo | Out-Null
}

Hi 👍

Thanks a lot! :)

Love the "Disable Quick Access: Frequent Folders" and "Disable Quick Access: Recent Files". That was bugging me as I had to manually disable in the option. Glad there's automated way to disable them! :)

Hi there,

I am wondering if your script work with windows 10 64bit ? do you need to add Wow6432Node ??

Awesome, thanks!

Be careful about removing "All" win 10 packages. This can disable the Windows Store feature which most users will need.

I figured out the todo item

New-Item -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows' -Name 'Windows Search' -ItemType Key
New-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search' -Name AllowCortana -Type DWORD -Value 0

HKCU:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings\UxOption is under Local Machine, so should be HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsUpdate\UX\Settings

I figured out the todo item
New-Item -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows' -Name 'Windows Search' -ItemType Key
New-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search' -Name AllowCortana -Type DWORD -Value 0

yeh this works after a reboot or the explorer.exe restart

# Hide useless folders
gi "$Home\3D Objects",$Home\Contacts,$Home\Favorites,$Home\Links,"$Home\Saved Games",$Home\Searches -Force | foreach { $_.Attributes = $_.Attributes -bor "Hidden" }

#Remove CandyCrushFriends 
Get-AppxPackage king.com.CandyCrushFriends | Remove-AppxPackage

#DISABLE All BLOATWARE EXCEPT STORE
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | where-object {$_.name –notlike "*store*"} | Remove-AppxPackage

Use that command to completely remove all pre-installed windows bloatware apps except the store (so that you can still install apps that you might need). :)

Thanks Nick, this is pretty cool, and here are some more..

For things like Dark Mode, I found you might be able to change those with a .theme file instead, and then just point to a .theme file

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/controls/themesfileformat-overview#visual-styles-section

Maybe this is something you guys want to add. You need to have WinGet installed or you can use Chocolatey with the script from here

$Programs = @(
    "Discord.Discord"
    "Git.Git"
    "Microsoft.AzureCLI"
    "Microsoft.DeploymentToolkit"
    "Microsoft.PowerToys"

    "Microsoft.WindowsTerminalPreview"
    "OpenJS.Nodejs"
    "RARLab.WinRAR"
)

$programs | ForEach-Object{winget install $_}

Quick thankyou for all of the above; which I am using bits of. Cheers

This is probably a dumb question, but does this work on Windows 11 (Pro)?
