For many users, the biggest issue with Windows 10 isn't the speed, but the and bloat . Win10BloatRemover is the best-in-class tool for aggressively debloating your system without breaking it. It is a configurable CLI tool that goes beyond just hiding shortcuts; it actually uninstalls preinstalled UWP apps, removes Microsoft Edge (Chromium version included), and deletes (not just disables) system telemetry services.

While not exclusively registry-based, the Windows10Debloater script uses registry tweaks to bloatware apps that usually return after Windows updates. The original by Sycnex is archived, but the community forks are alive.
