    News flash: Users want something that costs lots of money at no cost without any obligations to help defray those costs.

    What will users think of next?

    Bloatware on Windows10 - Syntax to Hide and Remove

    Windows 10 has lots of bloatware. This link:
    http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/easily-remove-bloatware-windows-10/
    helps users to customize their Windows 10 experience by hiding or removing unwanted OS integrated apps. Unfortunately it has not been updated as new bloatware apps have been added though
    Windows Updates and we need the Syntax for many of the new bloatware apps so we can hide or remove them to further customize our Windows 10 experience.

    PLEASE provide an official web page with a current list of Windows 10 bloatware apps and the appropriate syntax to both hide and remove these apps so users can run their systems as lean or fat as they desire. PLEASE KEEP IT UPDATED as new bloatware (OS
    integrated apps) are added through future Windows updates. The ability to customize our experience is one very important and much appreciated feature of Windows.

    Thank you!

    bloatware Windows 10

    Why add bloatware in Windows 10 Version 1607 OS Build 14393.0. I like my Windows 10 Clean without other stuff being forced installed.. I should be able to pick what I want as a user to install. NOT Microsoft instilling it for me like

    Dwarboard PFD that is not free. and I am sure you can find a few more worthless Apps form the Microsoft Store that is installed by Default. I am finding Mac iOS and Linux more appealing.

    Your logic escapes me, if I spend $500 - $1000 on an unit with windows installed, means that I have already paid a premium price for that machine. Fine charge me $10 more to allow it to be bloat free.

    The biggest problem with bloatware is that you are never certain what is actually needed to run your system. Some are obvious amazon.com links, etc. But some are not, I personally get a headache trying to figure what half of the stuff is. I have special software to disable and totally remove McAfee tools (I don't want it).

    At the very least they should allow an option of standard or custom install, so you can pick and choose.

    It reminds me of DVD rentals, originally there were no previews, then they would have 1 or 2 previews, now it is up 10-12 previews, just to watch the stupid movie, even at theater's the previews last longer than the actual movie. Give me a break.

    First, the point was that they were asking MS to prevent OEM's from bundling crapware on any system, not just premium ones.

    Second, it's really between you and your OEM, not Microsoft. OEM's use this crapware as a way to defray costs to sell you systems cheaper. If you can negotiate with them for a way to get that system without the crapware by paying more, that's up to you and them.

    Otherwise, vote with your wallet and don't buy from vendors who sell you systems with crapware.

  12. I would personally just add another 100u.s. for another oem copy of what ever os I wanted and scrub the darn thing after a year once the warrantee is expired for the hardware *Tongue

    That would take for granted there was no activation key for the factory machine.
    If you would be smart don't buy a machine without a obvious activation key *Wink

    Takes like 10 mins tops assuming you know what you're doing to get rid of bloatware on a preinstalled os. Not that big of a deal. Another option would just to buy the os separate from the pc with a clean burned iso or find a iso online cleaned already to install. At least that's how it's usually been in the past.

    That is not the best way. A clean install is the best way. *Smile

Microsoft can tell a OEMs what to do or not provide the Operating system. They done it in the past. I remember reading something if the OEM's don't do that, the OEM's wouldn't get an official windows 8/8.1 logo. Have you ever thought people have complained to the OEM's but no one is listening?

    OEMs need to go back to they way they use to do it.
    Provided an OEM installation disk for clean install.
    Provided a driver disk
    Provided the 3rd party software on dvd/cd disks. There are some people that want 3rd party software. I like the dell webcam, but I had to download it from dell website.

    Also, you shouldn't have to agree to an agreement to use your own computer. That mad me *Mad when I saw that. It is my computer not theirs. I paid for it. I am not talking about the EULUs that different.

  15. For the low end tablets, crapware is so unnecessary these days. The Intel SoCs for those baby tablets are pretty cheap. Windows with Bing is a free to use SKU for those devices. Needing to install crapware to defray hardware costs is silly.

    Even worse on the higher end of things is having nice hardware, but crapware all over the place.
