Windows Cleaner

Windows Base Install (depending on the release you are using) comes with more or less possibly undesired settings/applications. Here are some tools that take care of that:

Be careful with these tools and scripts; ideally copy those parts of the script you want and create your own.

Delete all App Packages on Windows 10 (add "-WhatIf" before running this to see if you really want to do this):

Get-AppxPackage | Remove-AppxPackage

Commands that help

  • Export current drivers: pnputil /export-driver * e:\treiber

Pimp Desktop

Note really required and may just waste laptop battery life and/or desktop CPU but nice to look at/use:
