Unsure if I should report this as a bug; I just freshly reinstalled windows 10 and upon using the tool, I've attempted to download multiple apps at the same time, and also try tweaks and they don't work. Even upon restarting, they won't install/change.

Forgot to mention:

Running Windows 10 Home

Vers 10.019044

(Also found out there's another issue open of the same exact one: my mistake)

Describe the bug

It would be very useful if the script had the ability to run unattended and silent. This would be useful for people who know what they want to run and want to run a command and wait for it to finish. It would also be helpful for people like IT's and System Admins to use if they wanted to deploy the script during the setup of a network of computers.

Describe the solution you'd like
The solution would be much like what I implemented in ChrisTitusTech/win10script#331 where you pass arguments into the script and the script runs them and then exits (if the accompanying arg is set). It will be much more difficult to implement in the new variant of the script though.
I will attempt to implement it in a pull request when the current restructuring of the script for runspaces is complete as I don't want to interfere with that.

Additional context
I'm putting this here for others to refer to and offer suggestions and to prevent someone else from opening an issue on it while I'm working on it.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like suggest WizTree an an alternative to WinDirStat as a disk usage analyzer utility.
In my experience it is much faster to scan and generate visualizations of disk usage compared to WinDirStat,
this is especially noticeable on large disks (I have a 1TB Nvme SSD, a 2TB Hard-drive. WizTree is much faster at analyzing both).
WizTree is available on winget as: AntibodySoftware.WizTree

Additional context
I would like to note that I haven't used TreeSize which i believe to be another alternative already on this utility. Hence no comparisons to this have been made.

[FIXED AFTER SYSTEM RESTART]

I am getting a bug when I try "upgrade all". I have noticed that the bug is happening during the upgrading of discord.

• Even Though It's working fine after the restart, I thought of reporting the log files here which might be useful for you..

Thanks for looking into this issue,

Could you please add a button to delete all the ANNOYING windows security protection history

.

After doing a fresh install of Win 10 Pro, I ran the winutil script (the current version as of the day I did my build, June 22) with recommended settings and then ran O&OShutup, also using the recommended settings.

Now I've discovered that I can't plug in my iPad for syncing with the iTunes Win desktop app: it says that it is waiting for Windows to install an updated driver. When I check Device Manager, it is showing a driver for the iPad under "Portable Devices", but it still isn't recognized by iTunes. I've uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, as well as the driver, many reboots, etc., but still no luck.

Win and the iTunes app are up to date.

Which part of Windows which I might have nuked in the debloating script that could be needed for this? I'm investigating the debloat script since I did nothing else to give rise to this issue but it could certainly be something else. Thanks

Description :
The utility doesnt do installations or tweaks from a local account (user not adminin).

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Powershell with elevated administrator (since the account is user)
2. Click Install
3. The box display the status as installed
4. The app isnt not in the windows launcher nor is ticked in the winutil's gui

Expected behavior
An actual installation of the chosen app (or feature)

Additional context
When winutil is opened through a powershell , there is no message indicating an error.

Updates tools are NOT properly working . if you choose |Security (Recommended) Settings| option and then you decide to make the Default settings it will gives you an error . Windows update reset tool also doing nothing at all. I'm using Windows 10 21H2 build 19044.1806

Apparently, the tweaks are managed using the gpedit, I guess and the windows 10 Home edition doesn't have the group policy editor in it. I used the Tweaks section in the tool after I reset my Laptop and I also wanted to use the "Find My Device" function of Windows 10 which uses location services. But now, the OS thinks that my PC is a part of a WORKGROUP and I can't make any changes I want within the settings. Some settings are also greyed out because of this. (check screenshots)

I tried to Undo the tweaks but it didn't change anything. Either I will have to live this way or I should again reset my PC which is frustrating at this point. I installed gpedit and followed some steps from the Net to take control but nothing's helping now.

Please suggest any fix for this.

Question:
The question from the title.
I created a new user for testing purposes and the apps were not listed, so there it worked.
It seems like the changes got applied to new users but not existing users?
Does it matter, if I apply the tweaks before or after the creation of new users?
Thanks in advance for your help.

To Reproduce

1. install windows
2. create another user account
3. switch to admin
4. run "Remove ALL MS Store Apps"
5. log out and login to new user
6. MS Store Apps are still there

Expected behavior
Run "Remove ALL MS Store Apps" and these Apps will be uninstalled for every user account on the PC.

This was the only way I knew how to give accurate info on what's happening on my machine with this new iteration of your Win10 Debloater, the last version is STILL holding my duct taped, bubble gum-med boxes together though, so I'm cool, but I thought it may help ya out. Also, I was having problems with GIMP and .svg's but I just got Inkscape, so hopefully I'll get some time to finish up some freshened up front end stuff for this utility. Hang in there peeps, and Chris, I hope your health, or more accurately, your insurance is getting better for ya Bud. Now, lets see if I get this to work ... Here goes .... Much love!!! ✌ ϻя.ƹ

I get a bunch of errors when running tweaks. This is a Windows 10 fresh install.

Errors:
Powershell_Errors.txt

Sorry if this has been stated before or if this is on purpose, but IMO this repo could really use more description as to what it intends to do.

I came across this repo just exploring on GitHub and had no idea what it's supposed to be, but it does have stars and issues so it must be relevant to something, right? It was only after that I realized who the repo belongs to and I know your YouTube channel.

If I hadn't recognized the repo owner from YouTube I would have just moved on. A description (and a few screenshots perhaps?) would really help users just stumbling in here.

This is where I will be keeping track of the transfer of my pull requests from ChrisTitusTech/win10script to here along with other features I'm working on. Feel free to comment with input or recommendations or even an idea for another feature.

Simplewall is an open source firewall program that uses the Windows Filtering Platform to block internet access for applications.

I'd like for simplewall to be added into the install menu

Alternatives
Portmaster could be an alternative to simplewall, but it is in the alpha phase.
Tinywall is another alternative which isn't open source. I also consider the UI to be a bit cluttered and outdated.

Describe the bug

Windows search does not find new programs and doesn't remove newly uninstalled programs
Restarts and shutdown are incredibly slow

To Reproduce

1. Use the essential "Desktop" tweaks
2. Restart (for good measure)
3. Windows search is now broken
4. Undoing tweaks does NOT fix this

Expected behavior

Everything should be searchable in windows search
Usual restart and shutdown takes less than 10 seconds (as opposed to 2-3 minutes)

Additional context

The only fix I found to for search is manually resetting everything in O&OSHUTUP10
I have not found a fix for the restarts

The current version has a bug. I ran the essential tweaks and the result was that my W11 didn't shut down or restart anymore. I used the restore point to undo the changes and it worked fine again. I am willing to help you debug it. Just let me know what logs you want.

To Reproduce

Run Essential tweaks.

I tried running this script after doing a fresh windows install. I ran it to install these software's:
Google.Chrome
Discord.Discord
Notepad++.Notepad++
PuTTY.PuTTY
7zip.7zip
VideoLAN.VLC
Bitwarden.Bitwarden
Rufus.Rufus
Spotify.Spotify
WinDirStat.WinDirStat

It said these were installed but they were not installed.
Any tips or where's the download location so I can just manually install them?

Describe the bug
Running Tweaks > Desktop breaks start menu search for apps installed/uninstalled after the tweak has been run. As an example, I'll describe the scenario as experienced on my clean install of Windows 10, which had the Windows Store version of Spotify installed. If you run the Tweaks > Desktop tweak, uninstall the Windows Store version of Spotify, install the normal Desktop version of Spotify, then attempt to search for Spotify using the start menu search feature, only the Windows Store version will be suggested, but the link will not function correctly (no app starts and there are no options to run as administrator, open file location, etc.). It seems that this action freezes the search functions view of applications installed to before the Tweaks > Desktop tweak is run, which is further supported by the start menu not finding Gimp, which I installed after having run the tweak.

To Reproduce
NOTE I attempted to reproduce this issue both by running the Tweaks > Desktop tweaks, installing ImgBurn, then running a start menu search and by uninstalling Agent Ransack then running a search, but ImgBurn does still show up in the search correctly for whatever reason. AgentRansack, however, exhibits the same behavior as described above. I'm not sure why ImgBurn still shows up in searches correctly. What I do know is that setting the Let apps run in the background option to true resolved my problem and that running Tweaks > Desktop reset the Let apps run in the background toggle to false.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Follow instructions here until you get to Tweak
2. Select the Desktop option under Recommended Selections, then click Run Tweaks
3. Install a new application
4. Press the Win key and type the name of the newly installed application
5. NOTICE that windows cannot find the application, even if links to that application exist within the search indexer's path
6. NOTICE that re-enabling the Settings > Background Apps > Let apps run in the background setting fixes the issue.

Expected behavior
Using the start menu's search feature should continue to operate as it did before the tweak was run.

Screenshots

Tweak Run > Agent Ransack uninstalled:

Search still reports Agent Ransack results:

Describe the bug
Spotify does not install when installer is ran in administrator mode.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run the script
2. Check Spotify under Multimedia Tools
3. Click on Start Install
4. Wait for error message to popup

Expected behavior
The Spotify installer runs and successfully installs.

Screenshots

Additional context
A possible fix.

When installing all checked programs, check if Spotify is installed, if Spotify is checked then run Spotify installer in non-administrator Powershell, after Spotify is done installing, install other checked programs.

EDIT: Tried the fix above. First the installer started in non-administrator Powershell, but then I was prompted to open in administrator Powershell which then continued the install and resulted in the same error. I may have implemented this fix wrong, feel free to try your own way.

the error says: iwr : Request aborted: Unable to create SSL/TLS secure channel. I have tried it on 3 computers and only on one did it run correctly, on two others I have the same error.

This bug occurred when i did the recommended settings in the tweaks page. I used laptop settings because i have laptop.. well, did restart, everything seemed right and nothing was off, well until i tried to search something in the windows search bar, or trying to open settings. 2 minutes after this discovery, the windows GUI [ start menu ] started flashing on and off, could not click anything, it was constantly highlighting random windows [ like steam, spotify, etc] so i tried to restart the explorer.exe. That didn't work either, because i got an error [ PICTURE ].

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'Tweaks Page'
2. Click on 'Laptop'
3. Apply your tweaks
4. Restart the system

Expected behavior
To be fair, i just expected the system to be more snappy and a little bit faster.

Screenshots

Additional context
Its not hard to fix it back.. just open the power-shell app again and unload [ revert ] the changes and restart.

with out the powershell the command alone in your website just shutdown the powershell window and nothing happens afterwards

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

No

Describe the solution you'd like

Add an option to the Updates section that delays windows update by setting the maximum days possible(Usually a month ~35 days). Add also an undo option next to it that resumes updates immediately(Default behaviour after resuming updates).

This option is currently under Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options > Pause Updates. Also documented on this support page for both Win10 and Win11.

Describe alternatives you've considered

N/A or Don't currently know any other solution.

Additional context

Add any other context or screenshots about the feature request here.

In the previous Windows Toolbox and also in this tool there is an option to delay feature updates (Up to 365 days) and only install ones related to security, However, there is NO option to delay all windows update for a time frame.

I visualize the option being added below the Security (Recommended) Settings and above the Disable ALL Updates (NOT RECOMMENDED) options.

Hey Chris,
Hi,
I hope this message finds you well, healthy, and most importantly ... Happy!!!
I didn't want to leave this on your Tube channel, as I wasn't sure you'd see it, and it's the only way I saw here to leave you a note. I've been working on your GUI for the winutil as I said I would. I DID in fact find my through the "code" to come up with a little better "look" and I started working on a more "updated" logo for you. Yours looks great, I just thought I'd throw it in the "paying Chris back" pile, and if ya dig it, cool. If not, cool too! My question for you however, is, "Can a vector graphic, that would expand and collapse proportionally with that cool new feature I was stoked about, be added as opposed, or in addition to the hexadecimal value for the background color? If so, I think I have a pretty tight new look for the whole thing, that'll work with your current logo, or one of the iterations of a new I'll come up with eventually. I can show what I've done, but I dunno where to try to upload it here, or if you'd want the file in some other way. I still send files via [email protected] like I have since ... well, since hotmail existed or thereabouts, so if ya wanna do that, that's cool. I guess I maybe shoulda prefaced this with, "This is Mr.E from your YouTube Channel." Dunno if ya ever even saw my comment there after you posted the video, and since I suck at everything BUT art, which is debatable at times😊, I figured I'd pitch in, as you've helped me a TON!!! Anyway, if you did read that comment, I haven't flaked on ya, I am, in fact, "on it". Let me know if that's even doable, but I got the idea, and just made the image while I "saw" it, so no biggie. I just assumed, as HTML and JavaScript are about the only "codes" I know, and on a webpage, using HTML, you could have a color value, i.e. #777777, as well as an image set as a background. That used to be important when you had to wait a bit for a BG image to load, but that was somewhere between 56k and DSL and this ISN'T HTML, but trying to help a friend is never a waste of time. I'd at least like you to see where I was thinking about taking the GUI esthetic, even if it work. If it will, an image for the BG, I'd assume would mean I could make images for all the buttons as well, which I thought would give it the "pro" look it deserves ... it deserves A LOT. I know there were a few "bugs" with the update, but when aren't there. I have a good buddy who said he'd take a look at your code as well on the 4 thingys you'd asked about, i forget what they were now, but he knew what you were talking about, so hopefully he'll get a chance to help out as well ¯_(ツ)_/¯ (His Dad helped invent the "gold stuff" on Nasa space vehicles, where he worked, and he's been "programming" literally since the 80's when we had a couple Korg's and a 4 track, so unlike me, he'd be an asset for ya, IF he can) Hopefully you get this. It didn't seem like the thing that fell under "pull request" from the little I understood it, so this seemed the best place, unless I waited for your next vid to come out on the Tube, and chucked this on it immediately ... so yeah ... hopefully you get this.
Please let me know at your earliest convenience. I sincerely appreciate your valuable time.
Much love!!! ✌

I used to use the older version of Essential Tweaks with no issues but I can't get the new version to launch at all. Firstly when I do try Webroot kills it saying that it's detected a trojan horse. So I disable Webroot and Windows defender realtime shields. I try again and nothing seems to happen at all just kind of a blip and it highlights the text in powershell admin and it just shuts down. It's not a huge deal I just liked using Essential Tweaks after I did any windows updates. Any suggestions or fixes would be appreciated.
