Was randomly browsing the web late at night, and stumbled into this youtube video. Didn't think this kind of miracle work was possible, but followed through and now I'm having my computer go a bit faster. Thanks alot friend :)

My windows 10 is so responsive than before, thank you very much.

I ran this program and my computer disappeared. Like it's gone. I guess it was all bloatware.

This post is 6 months old but I'm just watching it for the first time. A one button uninstall for one freaking one drive, dude you're my hero

Chris let me just say, you have improved so much over the past year. This is the first video that I can send to my friends (which are absolute computer noobs) without me helping them. Excellent job, you really know how to talk noob (e. g. Explaining what a blacklist is). Keep up the good work

I have never tweaked my windows 10 since install. Thanks to your great videos and a few hours I now have a really fast computer. Very easy to follow. Well done and thank you.

Word of caution: some of this stuff can really ruin your day if you're unlucky like me. I have a new comp (2 months old) for gaming and music production. Doing this screwed up gaming ( later found out it had something to do with removing registry keys dealing with Microsoft Store), but that wasn't the big deal. For some reason, this program decided to erase most of the VST plugins I was using, as well as removing quite a few apps I use in sample splicing, etc. when I went to restore back to the restore point I made just before doing all this, it did nothing to fix it. I ended up having to go back to a restore point a week before. Most of the plugins came back, BUT, all the sounds I had created were gone. So, any songs I had written using the VSTs will never sound the same. NOT Chris Titus' fault by ANY means, just a head's up for those walking along the same path. All in all, I wanted to streamline my computer, and ended up working to get what I could back, and eventually have to live with losing close to 50 hours of work on music.

Windows 10 has never been this responsive! No more "system interrupts" or "not responding" messages. All my apps and programs work and I don't have to wait forever for my system to start up. Thanks!

Thanks, Chris. This is very well done. I'm mostly Linux and macOS these days, but this is very handy for maintaining my Windows machine. I appreciate your time and clear presentation.

"Hey guys here is some method to fast your computer!" starts up Google Chrome..

I cleaned Windows 10 right off my computer and put Linux Mint-Cinnamon 20 on it.

Thank you for all your time and help! You are a natural Educator! You deliver information with ease and clarity for regular users out there and we can't thank you enough! Cheers!

Just performed this on my Son's laptop, Thank You! He wouldnt use it due to the lag (and some questionable sites had created an endless stream of pop ups). From power off to able to use is around 2:30. It was just locked up. He is very surprised.

I've been learning and re-learning so much, thank you! This is my new favorite channel; subscribed.

"To improve Windows" (13:26) Translation: Sells to third party and uses profits to pay employees to write more software.

No KZfaq I wanted the vid on cleaning dirty windowz!

2019 The year Linux became simple to configure compared to endless tutorials to clean Windows bloat. Not the year of the Linux desktop yet, but a milestone.

Thanks for the tips Chris, most of it I knew, but there were a few tidbits to learn, things are always changing. Keep up the great videos.

Two very simple steps. 1.) Format Windows partition 2.) Install Linux.

5 mins in and I already trust this man with my life

I just bought a new pc with Windows 10 on it... I brought it home, and cleaned it by installing LinuxMint 19.3 on it... haven't looked back... XFCE has some tricks up its sleeve that no other DE has... My favorite is to hold down the Alt key and scroll wheel... it magnifies the screen for my tired old Boomer eyes...

it's hilarious how microsoft claims to improve through collecting our data, while doing little more than wrapping a new skin around the same old OS.

Hi Chris, I have been watching your vids on my TV and today decided to try and implement your Windows 10 cleanup / debloat system. I got stuck at first base as I didn't know how to copy the script and before I knew it you had moved on!! I tried 3x but have now given up as you go so fast. Interesting stuff.

What we really NEED is a vid on how to make Windows 10 start up FASTER, QUICKER, FASTER!!!!!!!!! I have a r9 3900X running Win 10 Pro latest insider build on a Force MP600 1TB PCIe 4 ssd, and it still takes my system 40+ seconds to start up. WHY???????????????????? There was a time in Win 7 Ult, that I had my system restarting in 16 seconds. So why is start up soooooooooo slow in modern day win 10???? We need to speed it up!!!!

I found a number of empty folders in startup from programs that had been uninstalled but left the folder. So it's a worthwhile step.

Simply: thank you, Chris!

Before this video: RAM = 60% usage, CPU = 62% usage, HDD = 40% usage. After this video (with tweaks particular to my setup): RAM = 40% usage, CPU = 8% usage, HDD = 2% usage. I'm normally pretty good with performance tweaks, but I wasn't even aware of how much bloat there is in Win10. "ShutUp" shut down a lot of unnecessary services that I thought I had killed, and so far I have had better-than-fresh-install performance already. I will be recommending this to many of my friends. THANK YOU!

I thought I was going to have to reformat my computer but it just needed the Titus touch thanks

Thank you for doing this Chris. Its a shame that big companies dont even consider Linux as a viable platform. As long they dont do this, Liunx will never catch up with Windows. On the other side, when people stick with Windows, nothing will change at all.

I always think that running such a script directly from internet on my computer is like saying I don't want to be the only administrator of my computer.

you are the best!! from the cayman islands. where have you been? you are authentic real you have great knowelge inside and outside you help me out alot on just cleaning my laptop and i have learn so much.... i appriciate you. stay safe oj jackson

WARNING! BE CAREFUL WHEN DOING THIS it deleted my windows UI and i'll make an edit to let you know if i was safely able to restore everything or not .. edit: i was able to restore it from the System Restore Point, oh my gosh i thought i lost everything :[ be careful when doing this please it can do more harm than good

Wow dude! I haven't even restarted my pc yet and its already a big difference, THANK YOU BRO!!!

thank you, Chris! Liked and Sub'd! Your tutorial is very easy to follow and well done. I will watch your other videos to improve the computing quality of my PC's when I get time! 👍🏻👍🏻 ( one suggestion: you may show the pre- and post- bloatware removal screens in your video to let the viewers know what happens after they perform your routine because I was surprised after I saw most of the app's were blank in the Windows Startup menu were gone.)

thanks this has finally brought new life into an old windows installation that was unusable my boot up times are a third and my cpu usage is nearly halfed!

I followed these steps but used the updated link for his tool (which didn't have a clearcut "debloat" button like the one in this vid but I digress). My system processes went from 151 to 75 upon restart- and I had some corrupted files I didn't even know about but are now fixed! Thanks Chris, really appreciate it

Turning off hibernation also disables fastboot, which means now a shutdown does the same as a restart as far as bootup is concerned which is good. A lot of people when stuff doesn't work right, turn their computer off and back on and it still doesn't work. That's because windows wasn't restarting but just doing a hibernation hybrid shutdown. I really wish they would make it clear to the user, because the boot up as far as turning the computer off and back on or restarting look identical.

Did this 3 years ago and then finally dumped Windows for Ubuntu. Never looked back since, saving piles of memory and having free security. Thanks, Buddy.

So far I've only used a clear windows cache script. I should try this one as well. Thanks!

Up till last week I HATED win 10! But - using your videos and a couple of others I now have 10 running almost exactly like my beloved win 7 did and I so enjoy knowing that I have shut out as much of the ms bloat and spyware as possible; I honestly never thought I would enjoy using 10! Keep up the good work Chris and many thanks!

Beware about what the "debloater" does: for example it removes video codecs you need for many websites. Codecs do not cause your PC to be slow, they are only active in softwares needing them to play audio/videos encode with them (and if you remove them, you will not hear/see the audio/video at all that you intended to play, there will be no replacement in many places with alternative streams encoded differently, or you'll endup using some other less efficient MPEG codecs that have poorer quality and require more bandwidth on the network, and less abilities to use fast forward/backward in them. The codecs in Windows are not necessarily bad, even if there are a few better implementations (but most high-performing implementation are not free). If you install any mediaplayer app, they will ask you to reinstall the missing codecs they need to play yourt medias. Be aware that there are "free" codecs on the web that are in fact malicious or could cause instabilities in your hardware because of unsafe optimizations. This should not occur with the codecs provided by Windows, and at least they will be updated regularly as necessary (this won't happen with many "free codec packages", that also come with additional bloatwares including apps making recurrent internet accesses to report your usage, send profiling data, and download newer unstable versions).

:) Reminds me of "TechGuru" who was advising for a faster start to set all of the memory to the OS, then Windows was crashing at the start-up.

Man you're awesome, just used the 2022 updated script, top notch work!

Thanks. I found your channel in the night shift this week. Run your script immediately the next day and adjust all other things. Windows is going very well. Thanks for the info. I am watching your other videos? And soon I want to start with Linux first on an old laptop and who knows later on my main computer. Greathings from the Netherlands

Try "Storage Sense" that is part of Windows 10. Type Storage Sense in search.

Thanks chris! These are some good tips to keep your windows 10 operating smoothly. Most of what's on here I've already done on my system periodically, but those bloatware keys in the registry I'd honestly overlooked. Cheer mate.

I would want to see that Powershell code to see what it is doing before I click any buttons, especially Delete All buttons. You should distinguish between uninstall actions and safer actions such as disabling unnecessary scheduled tasks or removing unnecessary programs from Startup. But you should also tell people how you’re determining what to remove.

For anyone apply this, becarefull this might affect your app icon (shortcut) missing like some game icon from steam or whatever that open directly to internet. ex: csgo game icon on desktop. don't panic, i face that problem too haha. but don't worry, i found how to fix this. Just go Start > Settings > Apps > Default Apps > Choose Default apps by file type > Find URL and associate it with internet browser. i hope this fix it. *sry for my bad english, just want to help for anyone panic bc the shortcut icon missing

I dual booted for years and finally scrapped windows just before their recent update fiasco. Their updates took way too long anyway. I wonder if their updates took over an hour only to fail 😬 Glad I did it.

The amount of "Erase Windows, Install Linux" comments is so ridiculous. Some people cannot make that switch! I dual boot Win 10 and Mint. Yea I have a copy of Windows running under VBox for Photoshop, etc. but you still cannot run many apps or games like Far Cry, Battlefield, etc. Sadly for now Windows is a necessary evil for some people. Dual booting is still not a guaranteed easy feat for total non-techies.

For the 1st time i felt it's worth... it's adding value

I used windows LTSC + everything in this video and it's so great I love how fast it is.

Thank you for your tutorial, your work had helped me a lot, all the CPU, memory and disk percentage in Task manager has reduced significantly, from 80~99% to 22~60%, my laptop's turn on speed has increased so much that I thought I have put it to sleep yesterday, I knew there're viewers who threaten you for their mistake in the process, but for real, thank you for your work 👍👍👍

Also *"Windows Update Cleanup"* i.e. delete unused windows update downloads of your C:\ drive. I just freed up 5.8GB

Last year's instructions were a bit complicated, but did the job. This one's excellent! Great job! Thank you very much!

As someone who's concerned about privacy and security, I can't say I'm a huge fan of running a Powershell script that downloads "Some Random Code From Somewhere On The Internet (TM)" that deletes OS files and changes a bunch of system configs. Who knows what else it does? ...or will do next time? I'd really appreciate a video that goes item-by-item through what the debloater removes with thorough descriptions of how it gets added, why Microsoft thinks it needs to be there, and how we know that deleting it doesn't have negative repercussions. If you're informed enough to go diff the current version on GitHub with the last version your ran to make sure it's not doing some new nefarious thing, good job, but for the rest of us: don't take candy from strangers on GitHub.

03:29 does this work even if I have microsoft edge turned OFF from windows features..?!

"Deletes all bloatware"Auto checks all framework...lmao

This significantly improved the battery life of my laptop! Thanks!

man i dont even know whether u see this or not but u saved ma laptop ,u r just awsm man i dono wat to say but tq tq tq soooo much

I noticed that the debloat script removed the hevc extension needed to play back h.265 content in windows applications. this is probably not wanted. it also gets rid of the miracast stuff (which may or may not be wanted depending on if you use that functionality.

Clean up 10 Windows in 3 steps: 1. For crystal-clear glass, sponge on then squeegee off soapy water. Use horizontal strokes on one side of the pane and vertical strokes on the other to make streaks easier to spot. 2. Buff out small scratches with toothpaste. 3. To remove paint specks or sticky labels, dampen and scrape off with a plastic razor blade.

I like your attention detail. The link to the commands on your site are in the same order as in the video making them easy to locate. Nice job, I like a clean fast computer, thanks.

I really want to thank you for this video. I did what you suggested to my 2017 Surface Pro, which has been almost unusable in the past year or so. Now, it feels snappy like the day I purchased it.

Call me a fraidy-cat, but I would be terrified to attempt this procedure.

I'm old fashioned. I still like using Autoruns.

I use Solidworks for designing tooling and I use a CAM package called Bob-CAM for programming my CNC machines on my workstation computer. I ran this bloatware removal script, and it cause my computer to lock up every time I used the simulation with BobCAM. I had to reformat the hard drive and reinstall windows to get it to work again. On another note I ran the bloatware removal tool on mt surface that I just use for web surfacing and it worked great.

WOW, What a difference!!! I do basic maintenance on my machine from time to time. This video showed me a couple steps i didn't know about! Thank you

Looking at that penguin I was sure "cleaning up" includes Windows itself.

Nvidia experience adds telemetry, its evil and unnecessary

at the begining i thought i was too extensive... but i didnt realize when almost finsih to watch the video, it was very usefull, thnks Chris...

Awesome video....Just wanted a video like this...Thankyou for creating this video...

Chris i seem to have a problem, when i ran the windowsdebloater gui and followed you steps, my ethernet/wifi stopped working in computer i troubleshooted it then it said thats windows didnt find a driver for my network adapter. Now i cant install the driver (intel pcie gbe family controller) bcause it says that said driver was not found in computer

Thank you so much Chris! Windows is such a buggy, locked-down, spying, bloaty mess, only reason I'm stuck on it is because wine doesn't really work with all the programs I need 😑 Main use for this is for gaming, have a potato pc so all the help I can get to tame windows is much appreciated 🙏🏻

thanks man for all the hard work, just upgraded to win10 & going to try running the script soon once I get everything rehashed

It feels like a new Win 10 after removing all the bloatware. thank you so much. :)

OK, I've run the debloat stuff. Now does anyone know where I can get a Windows 10 colonic detox?

I was expecting to be informed of safely uninstalling actual programs off the computer by individual removal from the Programs section. Instead, Mr Chris Titus has taken an ill-fated approach of showing computer users of an advanced option on how to tamper with a computer's software innards where in all likelihood will destabilize its performance. This approach is akin to rooting a mobile phone for the sake of improving its overall performance without taking into account of latent issues pending following said outside user intervention. From my point of view, I would refrain from following Mr Titus' recommendations, period. His suggestions should ONLY be attempted by ADVANCED users, where if something does malfunction, the remedy may be readily applied by some means unbeknownst to a lesser user. Please heed my WARNING fellow KZfaqrs. 🤚😖👎 P.S. Mr Titus unashamedly shows potential novice computer users how to edit the registry, which is basically the computer's DNA. Once again, I urge caution in tampering in this area, where changes are made on the fly without an Undo function.⚠️

Windows 10 works great on my (partly) 10 year old computer. I spend only a few minutes removing unwanted stuff now and then. In my opinion this is the best and easiest OS to use out of the box (clean install). Microsoft has thousands of engineers working on this thing and it shows. I trust Microsoft more than some random scriptmakers. I would rather put an extra stick of RAM and an SSD on it. But you all do what you want.

You are awesome. I put windows 10 on an old Toshiba laptop I have at work. It is all it can do to run windows 10. This really helps a lot. Thank you so much!!!!

PROBLEM!!! PLEASE HELP ME Hey I got a huge problem after watching this video can somebody help me please? I cant open task manager and many other options, i cant reset my computer and cannot deinstall or install windows. It could be because I deleted everything under Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MASCHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion (at 9:40 in this video) and now I cannot even open this file either. Also by accident I did klick on weird settings on the reccomended programm O&O SHUTUP10 ,but i cannot open this program anymore either. I am ready to reinstall everything and re-setup my laptop. I just want task manager and coding window to work again. ik its totally my fault but is there anything I could do.Thank you in advance.

Avoid using AIO programs like Debloater. I’ve seen so many reports saying they cannot revert the changes such as removing Windows components and are unable to install Windows applications that require these like Windows Store unless they do a full reinstall.

Thank you for this tutorial, I'll add one more thing for people that has an unresponsive or sluggish windows 10: I've found out that firefox was eating all my memory for some reason, and after using it for about 30 minutes the windows start menu and user interface would get laggy and unresponsive. So I stopped using Firefox and switched to "Slimjet". After that I've noticed a huge improvement in the overall perfomance.

Not being a computer geek, I was a bit afraid to try any of this, but I said, "what the heck, give it try". I'm glad I did ! My computer is definitely faster. apps load faster. I use Chrome for my and between following the guide in chrome to make it faster and following the steps in this video, chrome loads faster. The computer is just so much more responsive now. Thanks and Happy New Year!

after running the bloatware, all my document files on the desktop were deleted away especially my school project were gone

your thumnail i thought you were Swifty and i was abit surprise at first :D

that debloat alone just help so much thank you

It noticed a difference when doing this much faster a boot up, Nice Job sir, Thank you.

im a bit sceptic about running some non open-source program as an admin and letting it tweak stuff in my system

This removes some things some people may actually need. For example gamers may need xbox services. Also have a look at winaerotweaker. Its a must for me!

i've been cleaning up Windows since W98 days! thanks so much for this post!!!! Outstanding and some stuff i didn't know. Windows 10 isn't a bad OS, but outta the box it is. For those who argue is no faster & lightly after doing these steps...imo i can promise you it is! Thanks again you have a great channel right here

Great video A major reason I don't do windows 10 is telemetry and bloatware.

Captain here: The amount of sheep following this without thinking is astonishing. The remove all button removes important programs as well that are necessary for the system to function properly. Incredible that the video has so many upvotes. It's a big problem that the buttons don't specify what each one is doing, that's a giant no-go as well. It also lacks a rollback function... unbelieveable.

Okay, you know this comment was coming, so I'll just get it out of the way: The best way to clean up Windows 10 is to install Linux.

Love you Chris! Been watching since 6k subs! Keep it up! Best Linux/Faster Windows youtuber!

it helped me thank you sooo much chris , please give more details and tips for windows

Nice, it removed apps I personally added, needed and didn't want to loose. Then the store didn't want to let me install it again

So many people here really need to learn the definition of what "bloatware" on w10 means lol "Ran your remove bloatware, where have all my games and MS apps gone?!!" LOL

I'm using this method, just a reminder to make a image of your system, a kind of backup. When i uninstalled my onedrive it made part of my hard drive "broken", many files vanished. Luckily, i had used Macrium reflect to restore everything. But the video worked great! (Apart this setback), very useful after windows updates!
