Windows 10 comes with all kinds of preinstalled apps and other features that may feel annoying to some. Richard Newton has created a PowerShell script designed to identify and remove many preinstalled features, and strengthen privacy settings. He describes his project at https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater.
The source code can be found here: https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater/blob/master/Windows10Debloater.ps1.
We point you to this script because it contains many useful techniques illustrating how to remove apps and registry keys on Windows 10. By nature, it is discouraged to run the script without investigation. Make sure you understand what will be removed, and whether you really want it removed.
