When you buy a new PC—whether a high-end gaming device or an entry-level laptop—you expect it to be clean from the start. However, Windows 11 typically comes with at least a few unwanted pre-installed apps, called bloatware. How should you remove bloatware from your PC?

Win10Privacy is my go-to to quickly and effectively de-bloat about 80% of Windows 10 or 11.

Downside is that it’s quite powerful, so much so it’s not really meant for non-experts, as you run a very real risk of bricking (or at least crippling) the system with some settings.
