So my anti virus suddenly has an issue with.. not exactly Sophia, but the Preset script created by the Wrapper??? Its normally rly reliable and never reports on just unknown or unofficial things like some others might. Also I've used Sophia on my pc before, as well as on a new install and my friend used it too, all without any issues. Earlier I wanted to try out the automatic cleanup task, so I loaded my preset, clicked on clear in the Wrapper and only ticked the add cleanup task thing, and then ran it from the Wrapper. And a few seconds later Kaspersky Internet Security says it found some trojan and starts some advanced desinfection stuff and basically locks me out of my pc until it finished. I wanted to know what exactly the script now apparently did but it didnt say, it only showed the path. I recovered the file from quarantine and checked it in editor and it was just the normal preset, well, with every section emptied except the one to add the cleanup task. Then I saw on Github that the Cleanup task feature recently got updated so I'm wondering if theres maybe a bug? Sorry idk what exactly would be the problem, thats all of the report it told me. Event: Malicious object detected Application: Windows PowerShell User: WinPC\Win_10 User type: Active user Component: System Watcher Result description: Detected Type: Trojan Name: PDM:Trojan.Win32.Generic.nblk Threat level: High Object type: Process Object path: i:\2_logon\3_sophia\sophia script for windows 10 v5.13.2 Object name: preset.ps1 Reason: Databases Databases release date: Today, 7/21/2022 12:26:00 PM Event: Process terminated Application: Windows PowerShell User: WinPC\Win_10 User type: Active user Component: System Watcher Result description: Terminated Type: Trojan Name: PDM:Trojan.Win32.Generic.nblk Threat level: High Object type: Process Object path: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0 Object name: powershell.exe Hope that helps in any way,.. don't exactly wanna try to reproduce it. Guess I'll just leave the setting task thing for now, the other things seem to work just fine.
Just a false positive. What do you want from Kaspersky, the sittest AV in thw world. A the the company itself does. Nothing actually changed. I think it was triggered by creating scheduled tasks. Nothing special. I always post what 've changed. Link like this: https://github.com/farag2/Sophia-Script-for-Windows/compare/6.1.1...6.1.2
Idk why you dislike Kaspersky so much, I've never had any problems with it and it seems much more decent than the mess of other AV's out there, doesnt annoy me with offers or notifications, doesnt take much system resources and so far did it's job really well. But well, all the other settings work just fine, and the other 2 tasks also are no problem, also while I'm here, I found Sophia cause someone recommended it to me when I asked how to remove the garbage after a fresh install. Another person also recommended some Windows 10 Debloater script but Sophia then said it was bad, so I freshly installed the image again and started from the beginning. Whats so bad about that script if I may ask?
Sycnex's script? It destroys Windows. That's all it can do. Look how many opened and unreplied issues there are: https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater/issues The dev even doesn't know PowerShell but coded a tool to break OS. Regarding Kaspersky: it's always has been s**t. They even don't know how to interview (I was trying to in 2020). I wrote an article on the largest IT portal in Russia what they asked me on the interview regarding my specialty. P.S. they also offered me to cast out demons from a video projector. This is not a joke. They didn't a f**k what I am, just kidding around all the interview.
Ah wow thats a lot of issues. Well, I'm not running anything without reading it before, so I've been reading through some script the last days, googling nearly every line cause I wouldn't know what it does. I just wanna have a clean windows that doesn't use half of my resources for garbage and telemetry, but it's sometimes difficult to distinguish between "tweaks" that are floating around the internet but don't actually do anything and things that actually make sense.. I've seen scripts apply meaningless tweaks to timers and stuff actually making latency worse than better only cause "it might help in certain cases" and then it got copied and pasted into some script. I took care of all the apps and features by not including them in the image in the first place and running msmg toolkit over it, but that still leaves a load of scheduled tasks, services with cryptic names and registry settings, and the entire mess of logging. And I'm not exactly sure how to deal with all those in a reliable way without risking to break anything,.. well other than googling every line, but even then I might not understand it. Oh forgot my question, does Sophia App do everything Sophia Script can do as well? Is it better to use Sophia App or Sophia Script?
i have never faced any problems using sophia. its the only script i run for debloating. and i also had made msmg iso. and use sophia to remove some stuff. i think you can dom more with script than app. i like the script and wrapper than the app. once i set everything up i just run the script.
Oh, don't make up stories repeating after YouTubers. You really think Windows use half of your recorces to collect and send telemetry? Oh, my gosh. Yes, because... this is Windows, a hybrid kernel OS! you want 1 scheduled task in the Scheduler and 1 service? of course it will be regarding Windows update. this makes no sense. I tell everyone (even at workplace): stop breaking your OS! just work on it. even without tweaking it. especially if you do not udnerstand how they (and OS too) work! most of them do not work (cus being from 2000s), the rest will slow your OS rathen than speed up. Just customize UI and security feature. If you want to break Defender (I'm not talking about switching to another AV) or destroy WU (cus you still think that OS gets them every day and restarts your PC every time theuy applied), better purchase Mac. really. I will explain it in Russian in more explicit way, but it won't be pretty polite towards you. > does Sophia App do everything Sophia Script can do as well? Now unfortunately, as I already wrote here, the SophiApp features cover only 95 % of Sophia Script. So if you prefer more convenient way to configure Windows, and that there is no yet some really difficult features to relealize like changing user folders location or disabling IP6, SophiApp is your choice. More you use, more bugs will be caught. And keep in mind, that there might be bugs But I bet the upcoming the 75th build will get rid of all teething problems. I hope so. Find a bug, let us no. Better via the Telegram group.
Maybe I've forgotten too much that English isn't your main language, I should be more precise if I expect you to understand what I'm trying to say. Naturally that windows uses half the resources etc is exaggerated. I know it won't give me more fps or anything like that, I just like to have things as clean as possible. Windows is a big OS that covers a whole lot of different devices and needs to support the wishes of lots of different people. Some people want to use Microsoft account to sync all their stuff, they want XBox services and so on. I don't need some of theese things, that's why I want to disable them, not because they make my PC slower or anything, just because they are unnecessary for me. If you think it's better to not touch anything, why would you make Sophia in the first place? Of course I don't want to break the OS, if I wanted that I would just run a bunch of random scripts, or just disable everything. Whats wrong with wanting to disable some of the privacy and telemetry features? Whats wrong with wanting to disable some services and scheduled tasks that are just unnecessary for me? Half of the stuff thats enabled by default I don't need, I dont need tablet stuff, I dont need speech recognition, I don't need Xbox, UWP apps, Microsoft account. I need a working Windows and all services and tasks that are important for it thats all. Thats why I use Sophia, cause it explains what every setting does. Thats why I read every line of other scripts and google what it does. Thats why I test things out on a different install.
Hello ~ I've got 2 more questions.. Does Sophia work offline? (Aside from downloading vc_redist and .net) I normally ran the script right after a fresh install while being offline, but when I ran it again after going online and doing updates I noticed that it took a bit longer and had a lot of things in yellow at the end. Secondly, I'm aware that Telemetry level 0 only works on enterprise version. Can I still set HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection; AllowTelemetry=0 ? So that OOSU10 doesn't mark it in red. Or does it have a negative effect? Oh and a third one actually. Should I install the .Net Desktop Runtime? And only that or the Console .Net Runtime too? I have both the Desktop Runtime and the Console one on my computer but I also have Visual Studio so that's probably why. My friends don't have either the Desktop one or the Console one.
It seems I missed your question. Sorry Yes, it works only, but some functions relies on the Internet connection due to the script downloads some files from there. Actually, you can but there won;t be any effect for system: it will still operate like the value is 1 if your edition isn't Ent. It has no negative effect except MS doesn't know how do you work on Windows, that may lead in the future that they remove or add some features that you or the whole community will critisize. Sp it's ony up to you to do it, but do not surprise if Windows will turn into wrong way. If you're going just to use apps built with .NET 6, 7, it will be enough for you. No need to install a console version.
