> I know tr0nscript has fallen out of favor since, don’t know the exact reasons. Looked to what it's doing in every step [0]. It's a bit overzealous while doing what it's doing. Also, its default are not the most sensible ones so, if you're not running it after installation it may change the behavior of the system quite a bit. Removal of metro apps, resetting IE, purging %APP_DATA% storage, removal of some VCS snapshots... It's a thermonuclear option to take. To be able to run in a milder, sensible manner needs a lot of tuning. So it's not practical. [0]: https://github.com/bmrf/tron/blob/master/README.md#full-tron...
In Windows XP source code has leaked
For what it's worth, I've had a lot of success with the Tron script[1] for getting rid of Windows Bloat. It disables a ton of garbage via Registry Keys which windows is much less likely to overwrite. It can be a little aggressive on some stuff like blocking your microphone from working in any app (easily fixable) but I'd rather have it that way than having to uninstall Candy Crush once a week.

In Apple of 2019 is the Linux of 2000
There is an overwhelming amount of "but the users NEED to update" in the Windows 10 community. Sorry but now users are running random scripts they find on the internet. This is worse than just "hacking the registry" or adding some group policy to disable auto-updates. I need security and no random shutdowns. I switched to linux about a year ago. Lots of complaints, yes, but no auto-updates. Example scripts (haven't used any): https://gist.github.com/alirobe/7f3b34ad89a159e6daa1 https://github.com/W4RH4WK/Debloat-Windows-10/blob/master/sc... https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater https://github.com/bmrf/tron
In Microsoft again forced upgrades on Win10 PCs specifically set to block updates
If you are using Windows, also consider Tronscript, which fights for the User. https://github.com/bmrf/tron/blob/master/README.md#stage-1-t... https://www.reddit.com/r/TronScript/ It de-bloat all useless software installed by OEM, BleachBit your computer, purge telemetry which tracking users, Disinfect virus and optimize computer. Most of the strange problem will go away from my experiences. It is one tool that I will highly recommend to someone who really want a clean computer.
