This Project was adapted from W4RH4WK's Project
These scripts will Customize, Debloat and Improve Privacy/Performance and System Responsiveness on Windows 10+.
This has a collection of scripts to tweak the system per category, using different functions to adjust the system settings and make Windows great again! You can also install your favorite softwares through the GUI with just one click after being selected.
Use on a fresh Windows install to note the differences. Using an admin account is recommended to avoid any compatibility issues.
Code located in the main branch is considered stable, the develop branch contains the most recent features.

If something breaks you can rely on:
- If you want (almost) everything to it's original state, use the
Undo Tweaksbutton onWin10ScriptGUI.ps1. - A restoration point done by the script itself;
- The
Repair Windowsbutton onWin10ScriptGUI.ps1;
The Win10Script(CLI/GUI).ps1 does not make everything automatically, so follow these steps.
- Extract the
.zipfile to another folder. - Run
OpenTerminalHere.cmd(try as admin if nothing happens at all). - Enable execution of PowerShell scripts and Unblock PowerShell scripts and modules within this directory (Down below).
- Copy and Paste this entire line below on PowerShell:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser -Force; ls -Recurse *.ps*1 | Unblock-File; .\"Win10ScriptGUI.ps1"
The Apply Tweaks button is the main one for debloating.
- Copy and Paste this entire line below on PowerShell:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope CurrentUser -Force; ls -Recurse *.ps*1 | Unblock-File; .\"Win10ScriptCLI.ps1"Scripts can be run individually, pick what you need.
