| # Tweaked Win10 Initial Setup Script | |
| # Primary Author: Disassembler <disassembler@dasm.cz> | |
| # Modified by: alirobe <alirobe@alirobe.com> based on my personal preferences. | |
| # Version: 2.20.1, 2018-07-23 | |
| # Primary Author Source: https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script | |
| # Tweaked Source: https://gist.github.com/alirobe/7f3b34ad89a159e6daa1/ | |
| # Tweak difference: | |
| # | |
| # @alirobe's version is a subset focused on safely disabling telemetry, some 'smart' features and 3rd party bloat ... | |
| # ... while retaining win10 defaults + security features. Aim to be suitable for end-user rollout. | |
| # | |
| # If you're a power user looking to tweak your machinea, or doing larger roll-out.. | |
| # Use the @Disassembler0 script instead. It'll probably be more up-to-date than mine: | |
| # https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script | |
| # | |
| # Note from author: Never run scripts without reading them & understanding what they do. | |

Nice work! There's also operating systems that actually come without bloatware, telemetry and Candy Crush Soda Saga, which users of this script may not have heard of and may want to look into. One such operating system is known as GNU/Linux, of which there are lots of different distributions to suit the user's needs. And since most of the software written for these operating systems is free, you can modify it as you please, and change the system to work best for you. It's great, check it out!

Free means open source but open source doesn't means free.
Btw the point of open source is to be able to modified by everyone aka. open for modifications (unlike free software where you can also redistribute your modifications).

"Love this! Too bad I already switched permanently to Ubuntu" From one spyware company to another....you marvel you.
All linux distros have tracking software built into them. Your browsers phone home by default. Your OS search gets handed off to Amazon. Tracking cookies get installed without warning. Your authentication services use Google and Fakebook. Hell even your package managers are now tracking you. Your IP stack was designed by NSA. Get off your high horse. You are superior to no one. Canonical has already sold you out to Microsoft.

So do I just save this into a text file, rename the extension for a VB script (What extension would that be?) and remove the # for anything I want the script to remove or add? This is extremely helpful but I wish there was some kind of GUI to help remove the extra Microsoft junk that came with windows 10. Also, what does a provisioned app mean? I find that term a lot when searching on how to remove all these useless extra apps. Thanks!

@dinhlan300 Sorry!
it's possible to reverse this by going through the file, commenting out whatever is uncommented, and uncommenting the 'undo' lines under those.
I would not recommend doing this if you're not super comfortable with what you're doing. Ask for help doing this from someone who administers computers regularly, it should be a 10-15 min job for them. Save a copy of everything you run.

Updated again, after my pull (change) request was accepted, making my minor tweaks dasm0's code unnecessary.
So as of today, I'm now only using the tweaks variable on dasm0's code.
I recommend getting the latest code from him in the future, rather than referring to this fork.

Hi, Thanks for this!
Question though, how can I run this for the default user so all new users on a machine get the same setup? I tried it in audit mode and for every new user the apps still persist.
I'm trying to setup a clean MDT image and this is by far the most comprehensive script :)

Hello,
why don't you create a *.preset file with your personal preferences for the official script ? Instead you duplicate the whole Code every time the original Script changes ? ...

@Martin-H2, because this script was originally a pretty modified version of disassember0's script, but he updated his script, and I submitted some pull requests to bring it into alignment with his script.
Now a whole bunch of people copy it from here/rely on it, so I'm just keeping it up to date...
Initially I found the script on a pastebin, modified it, and put it in a gist for myself. Finding Disassember0's repo came long after I did this... I keep the code here because I check it before updating it, and may make changes at some point (although so far all changes have been PRs). I keep trying to point people to his repo, but they keep coming back here. It's basically a personal gist that I shared with a few people, and it seems to have gotten a bit out of hand.

@Martin-H2, because this script was originally a pretty modified version of disassember0's script, but he updated his script, and I submitted some pull requests to bring it into alignment with his script. Now a whole bunch of people copy it from here/rely on it, so I'm just keeping it up to date... Initially I found the script on a pastebin, modified it, and put it in a gist for myself. Finding Disassember0's repo came long after I did this... I keep the code here because I check it before updating it, and may make changes at some point (although so far all changes have been PRs). I keep trying to point people to his repo, but they keep coming back here. It's basically a personal gist that I shared with a few people, and it seems to have gotten a bit out of hand. *shrug* |

Apologies for the ignorant questions: Choosing to enable or disable a command is done by adding or removing the "#" from the beginning of the command in the "Default Preset" list?

@shavitush fixed in this update.
@MrDevanWright yes
@Miner27481 groove has been discontinued! calendar and people are in the "UninstallMsftBloat" command, remove the hash before it to remove all MS apps (incl skype etc), or just run the parts of that command you want to run by using 'run selection' in Powershell ISE

@alirobe Thanks for a great script. I'm wanting to try to use this remotely, is it possible to write all of the output to a log file to monitor it's progress?

@peripatew I think you can just > logfile.txt the output, or start-transcript?
People might want to use the PSGallery version I just uploaded... https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/Reclaim-Windows10
(admin)
install-module reclaim-windows10
import-module reclaim-windows10
reclaim-windows10

DisableOneDrive should also nuke OneDrive's explorer icon like https://www.tekrevue.com/tip/remove-onedrive-file-explorer-sidebar-windows-10/ , and EnableOneDrive should reinstate it.

Upon review and testing, it appears most of these are user settings. Has anyone looked it applying these to the entire machine. This might be helpful for new deployments and multi-user PCs?

Wow that is a really great script.
I'm developing a script that will configure my Windows 10 as I wish and installed some softwares with Chocolatey. I will publish this script on my repo.
Can I use some of your functions in my script ?
I will, of course, reference you and your script in mine if you authorize me to do so ?
Regards,
Sylver

@ziogref thanks, fixed
@cat901 you might want to look into configuring group policies?
@sschorgen, please refer to the original repo - this is a fork
@spaceneenja because I don't really have anything to contribute anymore? I have made minor contributions via issues. This is just for my personal reference... I like to review the upstream changes before commiting them here.

@ziogref thanks, fixed |
