I am seriously interested in Windows 10/11 Debloating. I find it fascinating to tweak Windows Operating system. There is so much things to do. I created 5 Wrapper GUI with my friends for four well known PowerShell scripts: farag2 (Sophia), Chris Titus Tech (CTT Toolbox). GodHand (Optimize-Offline), DaddyMadu (GamingFocus). 1. farag2 (Sophia Script Wrapper) Windows 10/11: https://benchtweakgaming.com/2020/10/10/windows-10-debloat-tool/ 2. CTT/farag2 (Windows 10 Debloater): https://freetimetech.com/windows-10-clean-up-debloat-tool-by-ftt/ 3. GodHand (Optimize-Offline Front-End): https://benchtweakgaming.com/2020/11/01/optimize-offline-gui-tool-front-end/ 4. DaddyMadu GamingFocus (Gaming Debloater): https://freetimetech.com/gaming-debloater/ 5. CTT/farag2 (Windows 11 Debloater): https://freetimetech.com/windows-11-debloater-tool-debloat-gui/ OTHER Windows 10 Network Fix and Optimizer: https://freetimetech.com/network-and-optimizer-utility-by-ftt/ This is a Windows 10 tool for system deployment. - Updated to add features and fix bugs farag2 (Sophia Script Wrapper) - I just updated the farag2 one that can now run the script from the program just like the CTT one. - Updated the farag2 again, hover mouse over radiobutton for ToolTips which is information on each radiobutton. - Updated, Sophia 5.2 working now. - Updated to v5.3 now - V1.5 now with UI additions to read/edit function body scripts - V1.6 - Working with farag now. Program called 'Sophia Script Wrapper'. WPF and C# and nicer UI. - Sophia Script wrapper has new tab for system protection and adjustable radio button widths now - SSW can now read PS1 files to populate the radiobuttons. - UI changes - Version 2.0 - Video Tutorial for Wrapper v2.x - Still updating v2.x with more features and special controls - Added Search - Learning UI/UX design to make Wrapper v3.0 with WinUI3 - Almost complete Wrapper v3.0 CTT/farag2 (Windows 10 Debloater) - For CTT, I enabled running the created PowerShell script directly from the Wrapper GUI with a button. - Updated the CTT again, created 45+ options and functions for all the "Windows Apps" tab to select from. - Updated, fixed some errors and now has ToolTips for info message popups for each radiobutton. - Updated to WPF and C#, 'EZ Debloater' front single debloat page GUI. - Updated 'EZ Debloater' scripts - Updated 'EZ Debloater' scripts again - Working on reworking this project as Windows 10 is still the dominate OS: Make it updated like Windows 11 Debloater (CTT/FARAG2) - Removed old CTT tabs for making a personalized script that was based on Disassembler0 and used FARAG2 Windows 10 Sophia Script functions. - A lot of more languages added 17 total now for tabs radiobuttons tooltips - Complete UI translation in 17 languages and summary of EZDebloater option - Advanced tab for basic fine tuning - Currently being updated with new design - New design with 3 main tabs (EZ Debloater, Advanced Debloater, Fine-Tuning Debloater) - Search for Fine-Tuning Debloater - Added more languages - Currently adding more features GodHand (Optimize-Offline Front-End) - For offline debloating, I just recently made a front-end for GodHand's Optimize-Offline. It just creates the JSON configuration file and you can directly run it. - Will create a WPF + C# version of it next so it scales properly in higher res monitors DaddyMadu (Gaming Debloater) - Initial - no EZ Gaming Debloater front page - EZ Gaming Debloater tab added - Updated for June 4, 2022 - fixed bugs and updated script - Updated for 2024 - Will update script again probably with farag2 internals, will make Win10 and Win11 versions CTT/farag2 (Windows 11 Debloater) - Released - Updated Scripts and Fixes - Added a bunch of languages: Russian, French, Spanish, Polish, Chinese and Vietnamese - A lot of more languages added 17 total now for tabs radiobuttons tooltips - Complete UI translation in 17 languages and summary of EZDebloater option - Advanced tab for basic fine tuning - New design with 3 main tabs (EZ Debloater, Advanced Debloater, Fine-Tuning Debloater) - Search for Fine-Tuning Debloater - Added more languages - Currently adding more features I am trying to add more features to make it more friendly and usable. I am experimenting. You could probably just do these projects and improve them for your entire life I think.
I just updated the farag2 one. It now includes running the scripts directly from the program. https://benchtweakgaming.com/2020/10/10/windows-10-debloat-tool/ Thanks for the feedback.
Added ToolTips to farag2 one. Hover your mouse cursor over each radiobutton for help/info on the selection.
Modified CTT by breaking down and creating 45+ selections and functions for all the "Windows Apps" tab to select from.
I have another couple things to fix. 1. I want to add ToolTips to the CTT one. 2. CTT radiobutton labels are too long for the form and cut off.
Does anybody know about EV code signing certificate? Extended Validation Code Signing Certificates? I would like to remove the Microsoft Defender popups I think I have to pay about $200-300+ for it which is expensive.
Updated the CTT. Should be error free and have ToolTips for each radiobutton (info message popup) I am thinking of adding more features. Message box to view powershell command/function per radiobutton? I am not sure if needed.
... pretty sure you may have already covered these, but just in case EVCS https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/dashboard/get-a-code-signing-certificate CS v EVCS Difference https://cheapsslsecurity.com/blog/ev-code-signing-vs-regular-code-signing/ Purchase https://cheapsslsecurity.com/sslproducts/codesigningcertificate.html SECTIGO https://sectigostore.com/page/what-is-a-microsoft-ev-code-signing-certificate/
a suggestion, rename - DGT-FaragW10DeBloatFE(Front End), DGT-CTTW10DeBloatFE(Front End) instead of D(avid)G(amer)T(humbs), ... B(ench)T(weak)G(aming) and/or F(ree)T(ime)T(ech) could be used... .. rename designed to clarify and give credit to source (just a thought).
If I rename the executable to BTG-FaragW10DeBloatFE.exe or FTT-CTTW10DeBloatFE.exe does that look OK?
You may need to drop the CTT version as Chris Titus is no longer recommending his script which is based on this script which is no longer being updated as regularily as it should... as regards the renaming (farag's one to BTG-FaragW10DeBloatFE.exe) I would prefer DGT-FaragW10DeBloatFE.exe as (I presume you are the one who has developed the Frtont End) ... still hoping you will apply your skills to this offline script... waiting in anticipitation... tested your latest version (farag's 5.2) all seems good - my end
I think I should focus on one source now. Running two is confusing and tiring. CTT is based on Primary Author Source: https://github.com/Disassembler0/Win10-Initial-Setup-Script and Tweaked Source: https://gist.github.com/alirobe/7f3b34ad89a159e6daa1/ Check the first few lines here https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/win10script/blob/master/win10debloat.ps1
