SSD tweaks would be nice. It's unfortunate that, although Windows enables TRIM for SSD drives, users have to manually disable defragmentation schedule in C: properties. Sometimes AHCI mode isn't enabled even if it's enabled in BIOS. Some basic SSD tweaks - disable: defrag prefetch and superprefetch boot tracing indexing 8.3 filenames file last accessed timestamp
Code: # dd if=/dev/sdXY | gzip -1 > sdXY.img.gz The only solution you can be sure. System restore cannot make 1:1 copy. EDIT: Confirmed
Forgot about that... Thanks for informing/reminding me, since I do use an SSD and definitely don't want defrag enabled on it.
For restoring removed metro apps by TNBT. Run as admin--> Powershell Try this command to restore metro apps (its not tested but should work though use it at your own risk). Code: Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
Thanks for making this tool, please keep working on it. I'd like to see disable driver enforcement signature
How can i restore back old regs? ...just didn't read text about Cortana, now my cortana is just f* up ... P.S: Go & use Windows XP if you really want most of these tweaks
Just like in previous versions (Recovery, Advanced Startup Options), for "permanent" solution, you will need to switch to "test mode", you will have watermark on desktop and so on.
Yes I will add all options into the script soon. I can also confirm a bug with the hosts file injection. Will be fixed when I'm home. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Has anyone tried running sfc/scannow after apply these tweaks? I ran a script that performed many of the same tweaks. I ran sfc/scannow before and after running the script I used. Before, there were no corruptions, after there were. Using the dism options, even with the install media, I could not repair the corruption, and I had to reinstall. System Restore did not fix the problem. Just make sure you image your current install before trying any of these tweaks, so it will take a lot less time to reinstall in case something goes wrong.
There is nothing harmful or irreversible except those 2: REG DELETE "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" /f > NUL 2>&1 REG DELETE "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" /f > NUL 2>&1 SFC scan can not fix missing registry entries, only missing files, like removed Cortana, Defender or OneDrive.
May I suggest adding a "Disable Windows Defender forever" complete with stopping the services and all that? It doesn't detect Malwarebytes Premium and keeps running alongside it, so I disabled it manually with Regedit \ Policies \ etc. It would be nice to have a tool to do it quickly on other PCs
Why the heck Are you all using sfc /scannow or dism to repair stuff when I already made a script to undo everything
Alright, I updated to v1.4 which fixes a few things mentioned here. It also gives you the options to skip certain tweaks. Next, I'll be working on a proper revert script for you. Code: v1.4 Changelog: - Added options for all tweaks - Disable Windows Update sharing - Fixed hosts file injection - Added option to disable OneDrive - Remove windows default apps *UPDATED*
I keep updating the reversal script so there's new one Is it possible you can change the reversal script I made to selecting which tweaks we want removed like remove this pc icon y/n thanks. Or is that not a good idea.
I'll start working on a reversal script based on the current v1.4 with all the options available. I've installed a fresh W10 on a virtual machine just to doublecheck the default values. Thanks for your work on the reversal script so far. Much appreciated.
