Debloat Windows 10
A Collection of Scripts Which Disable/Remove Windows 10 Features
“Debloat-Windows-10” is a GitHub repository containing a collection of PowerShell scripts intended to disable or remove unwanted Windows 10 features, built-in apps, services, telemetry components, and tweaks for performance or privacy. The project is archived as of September 23, 2025 and marked as read-only, since Windows 10 will reach end of life. The author explicitly warns that running these scripts can sometimes break system functionality (e.g. user accounts or system components) and recommends using them only on fresh installations with caution. Many scripts operate nondestructively (without interactive confirmations), but the user is encouraged to edit them beforehand to suit their specific needs. The repository includes utilities to disable services, uninstall default apps, tweak privacy settings, clean up telemetry, and adjust system behavior. -

Sysmon-Modular
A repository of sysmon configuration modules
sysmon-modular is a community-driven repository that provides a modular, production-ready set of Sysmon configuration modules designed to be easily composed and tuned for different environments. The project organizes detection logic into per-event modules (for example, process creation, file create, network connection, registry events, image load, and many more) so operators can pick and choose which rules to enable without editing a monolithic XML by hand. It includes pre-generated configuration variants (balanced, default with FileDelete, verbose, super-verbose, and a Microsoft Defender for Endpoint augmentation) to cover common use cases while warning about the performance tradeoffs of very verbose settings.

Sophia Script for Windows
The most powerful PowerShell module for fine-tuning Windows
Sophia Script for Windows is a scripting environment or DSL (Domain-Specific Language) designed to provide scripting capabilities on Windows systems in a high-level, expressive way. It abstracts over native APIs and offers constructs that make system automation, file manipulation, registry access, and user scripting easier than raw PowerShell or batch scripts. The repository presumably contains runtime, script engine, and library helpers to simplify common Windows tasks (e.g., service control, UI automation, scheduled tasks). Because Windows scripting often involves glue between COM, WMI, and system APIs, Sophia’s design likely aims to unify those surfaces behind consistent semantics. For developers or sysadmins, it offers an alternative tool for building lightweight Windows automation without resorting to full compiled utilities. While its adoption might be niche, the project showcases how domain-specific scripting languages can simplify cross-cutting OS tasks. -

Fido
A PowerShell script to download Windows or UEFI Shell ISOs
Fido is a PowerShell script that is primarily designed to be used in Rufus, but that can also be used in standalone fashion, and whose purpose is to automate access to the official Microsoft Windows retail ISO download links as well as provide convenient access to bootable UEFI Shell images. This script exists because, while Microsoft does make retail ISO download links freely and publicly available (at least for Windows 8 through Windows 11), up until recent releases, most of these links were only available after forcing users to jump through a lot of unwarranted hoops that created an exceedingly counterproductive, if not downright unfriendly, consumer experience, that greatly detracted from what people really want (direct access to ISO downloads). As to the reason one might want to download Windows retail ISOs, as opposed to the ISOs that are generated by Microsoft's own Media Creation Tool (MCT). -
13
Scoop Installer
A command-line installer for Windows
Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows. If you have built software that you would like others to use, Scoop is an alternative to building an installer (like MSI or InnoSetup). You just need to compress your app to a .zip file and provide a JSON manifest that describes how to install it. Scoop downloads and manages packages in a portable way, keeping them neatly isolated in ~\scoop. It won't install files outside its home, and you can place a Scoop installation wherever you like. For terminal applications, Scoop creates shims, a kind of command-line shortcut, inside the ~\scoop\shims folder, which is accessible in the PATH. For graphical applications, Scoop creates program shortcuts in a dedicated Start menu folder, called 'Scoop Apps'. This way, packages are always cleanly uninstalled and you can be sure what tools are currently in your PATH and in your Start menu. -

nano11
Script to build possibly the most trimmed-down Windows 11 experience
nano11 is an experimental PowerShell builder for creating an extremely stripped-down Windows 11 installation image. It uses built-in DISM capabilities and Microsoft's oscdimg utility to generate a bootable ISO from an official Windows source. The script removes bundled apps along with major system components, services, drivers, Windows Defender, Windows Update, and the WinSxS component store. An unattended setup file bypasses the Microsoft Account requirement and enables compact installation by default. The resulting system can be dramatically smaller than a normal Windows 11 image. That reduction is intentionally destructive to serviceability, so removed languages, drivers, features, and updates cannot simply be added back later. The project is therefore intended for disposable development, testing, embedded scenarios, and virtual machines rather than normal desktop use. -

Remove Windows Ai
Strip Windows 11 of built-in AI features for control and privacy
RemoveWindowsAI is an open source PowerShell-based tool created to help users regain control over their Windows 11 experience by disabling or removing AI-related features that Microsoft has increasingly integrated into the OS. It’s designed to work with currently released, stable versions of Windows 11 and continuously updated to match newly added AI components, especially since the 25H2 major update. The script covers a wide variety of AI surfaces (from core features like Copilot and Recall to hidden system packages, registry keys, and ancillary services) and applies targeted removals or disablement in bulk or selectively based on user choice. It offers both a graphical interface with toggles and a more advanced command-line mode, giving flexibility to novices and power users alike. RemoveWindowsAI also includes options to create backups and revert changes if users want to restore functionality later. -

Easy GPU PV
A Project dedicated to making GPU Partitioning on Windows easier
Easy-GPU-PV is an open-source project that automates the relatively complex steps required to set up GPU Paravirtualization (GPU-PV) on Windows Hyper-V, letting you partition a physical GPU and assign slices to virtual machines for low-latency remote use. It creates and installs a Windows VM, copies the necessary GPU-PV driver files into the VM, and helps install Parsec (an ultra-low-latency remote-desktop client) so you can connect to the VM at high framerates. The repo is practical and script-driven: the author provides PowerShell scripts (PreChecks.ps1, CopyFilesToVM.ps1, Update-VMGpuPartitionDriver.ps1, etc.) plus configuration values and an unattended install template to minimize manual steps. The README documents hardware and OS prerequisites (Windows 10 20H1+/Windows 11 Pro/Enterprise/Education, matched host/VM versions, virtualization and Hyper-V enabled, recent GPU drivers, and supported GPUs. -

AI File Sorter
Local AI file organization with categorization and rename suggestions
AI File Sorter is a cross-platform desktop application that uses AI (local LLMs run on your computer) to organize files and suggest meaningful file names based on real content, not just filenames or extensions. The app can analyze images locally and propose descriptive rename suggestions (for example, IMG_2048.jpg → clouds_over_lake.jpg). It can also analyze document text to improve categorization and renaming. Supported formats include PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, ODT, ODS, ODP, and common text files. For supported audio and video files, AI File Sorter can read embedded metadata (such as ID3, Vorbis, and MP4 tags) to suggest normalized names like year_artist_album_title.ext. AI analysis runs read-only, and all suggestions must be reviewed before being applied. AI File Sorter can run fully offline using local models like Mistral or LLaMA, so files and metadata stay on your device unless you configure a remote endpoint. -

Winget-AutoUpdate
WAU daily updates apps as system and notify connected users
Winget-AutoUpdate provides automation around Microsoft’s winget package manager to keep installed applications current without manual intervention. It typically wraps winget upgrade invocations into scheduled tasks, CI jobs, or simple scripts that can run on developer workstations and servers to apply available updates in a controlled way. Implementations often add logging, selective filtering (so only safe or allowed packages are updated), and dry-run reporting so admins can vet changes before deployment. For organizations, it’s a pragmatic bridge between ad-hoc desktop maintenance and a more formal patching pipeline—especially useful where modern app stores aren’t the single source of truth. The project also tends to include helpful utilities for generating update reports, creating change tickets, or rolling back problematic updates. Ultimately, it reduces the operational cost of keeping diverse Windows apps reasonably up to date. -
19
Bloatbox
Remove Bloatwares from Windows 10
BloatBox is a lightweight toolkit that helps users identify and remove unnecessary or undesired components from Windows installations. It typically exposes a curated list of preinstalled apps and services often considered “bloat” and offers scripted ways to uninstall or disable them, streamlining a system for performance, privacy, or reduced clutter. The project aims to be user-friendly: rather than running raw command lines, it organizes actions into named tasks and explains consequences so users can choose conservative or aggressive cleanup profiles. It often includes safeguards like dry-run modes, restore points, or instructions for reinstalling removed components to avoid accidental breakage. For those managing multiple machines, BloatBox accelerates getting a consistent, lean image ready for deployment or personal use. The focus is on practical trade-offs—removing what’s unnecessary while keeping the system stable and manageable. -

PrivescCheck
Privilege Escalation Enumeration Script for Windows
PrivescCheck is a local privilege escalation reconnaissance tool for Unix-like systems that automates common checks auditors and system owners run when looking for misconfigurations. It enumerates kernel versions, installed packages, SUID/SGID binaries, world-writable files and directories, services, cron jobs, and user/group permissions to highlight likely escalation paths. The output is organized and human-readable so operators can triage findings quickly—flagging high-risk items separately from informational noise. Designed for defenders as much as red-teamers, it helps turn ad-hoc manual checks into repeatable scans that surface systemic mistakes (for example, left-over build scripts or insecure service configs). Because it focuses on discovery rather than exploitation, it’s useful in hardening exercises, audits, and incident response to identify what an intruder might leverage. -
23
Win10 Initial Setup Script
PowerShell script for automation of routine tasks
The Win10 Initial Setup Script is a community-driven automation script to apply system tweaks, optimizations, and privacy settings to fresh Windows 10 installations. It bundles configurable modifications—disabling telemetry, configuring power plans, uninstalling bundled apps, setting registry tweaks, and adjusting updates—to align the system with power users’ preferences. Because many base Windows configurations ship with defaults suboptimal for performance or privacy, the script gives a reproducible mechanism to apply consistent settings across installs. The script is modular: users can enable or disable individual sections depending on need or sensitivity. Logging and dry-run options let users preview changes before committing them. As a reproducibility tool, it helps users maintain baseline configurations across hardware setups without manually clicking through deep settings panels. -
24
DISMTools
The connected place for Windows system administration
DISMTools is an advanced front-end for the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool, with support for projects and installations of any kind (whether it is your active installation or installations on any drive). DISMTools focuses on compatibility, with Windows image support starting from Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2, personalization, letting you customize it the way you want by configuring settings like the DISM executable to use, color modes, languages, and more; and performance, thanks to a combination of the DISM executable and a managed version of the DISM API (thanks to Jeff Kluge (jeffkl) for maintaining it) that provides rich functionality at speed. -
