Windows 10: Bloatware not automatically installed.

As far as I know, Windows 10 automatically installs unwanted bloatware silently without permission (ex. Candy Crush). However, i tried to install Windows 10 in a virtual machine with the following steps without itself installing the bloatware.


1. Create a virtual machine

2. Disable internet access for the virtual machine

3. Install Windows 10 and first login

4. Remove placeholder tiles (Right click icons with Download icons -> Unpin from Start)

5. Shutdown and enable internet access

6. Start the machine

6. Update Windows

7. Update Apps and Microsoft Store

8. Restart


Is this a solution? I doubt that unpin placeholder tiles from Start Menu really work.

A simple solution but one that works in most circumstances!

1. Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.

2. In the list of services, right-click Automatic Updates, and then click Properties.

3. In the Startup type list, click Automatic, and then click Apply.

4. If Service status is set to Stopped, click Start, and then click OK.

5. Right-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service, and then click Properties.

6. In the Startup type list, click Manual, and then click Apply.
