Google "windows 11 debloat reddit". There are several tools:
- https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat (recommended elsewhere in this thread)
- https://christitus.com/windows-tool/ (I used this one a couple weeks ago, seems to work well)
But seriously though, learn to fish. The answers aren't hard to find if you look, know what to search for, and are at least somewhat discriminating in your investigation.
The Chris Titus utility has worked very well for me. I used it to de-bloat Win 11 after I upgraded the OS last year.
I run Win 11 on an old tiny NUC PC that has Windows 10 before - now it does seem faster, is very stable and is not so annoying.
One thing: AFAIK you need to have the Windows 11 Pro version for the best de-bloating results.
I say go one step further and learn to fish harder and don't use any of these scripts. I can't even imagine trying to debug an issue on my machine after running one of these "makes arbitrary changes" scripts.
Do it all manually if for no other reason than you know all the changes you made and know where all the different settings actually are.
Indeed... I've made all the changes I want manually, and a lot of them aren't even things any of these scripts do anyway.
Having fished I have found the fish hard to catch so thought I would ask from another fisher.
