I vaguely remember either on PTIO or Privacy Guides that there were some recommendations on debloat tools. I'm wondering what people are using these days to achieve this?

For future installs, just get a copy of windows (10/11, depends on what you prefer) LTSC.
Comes with zero bloat preinstalled, it's refreshing

LTSC by far the best way to use Windows, but W11 LTSC doesn't exist yet, It'll release next year source.
I'll also suggest using a tool like Windows Privacy Dashboard to disable telemetry just in case.

Windows Privacy Dashboard looks very interesting, I’m going to have to give it a go. Thank you!

Does windows privacy dashboard interfer with like game anti cheat software? And other gaming related shit?
NNorAl 1 point 3 years ago
AFAIK no, I have been playing a couple of games in Co-op with friends and have no problems related with Windows for now, my only mistake was not measure performance before enabling everything.

You could just live boot a linux USB and mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 ;) 😂

Lol, I've already got a fedora server and desktop, a debian home theater PC, and some sort of Linux running on an old laptop (I think it's Ubuntu right now - I use whatever the current project needs). No windows in my household!

ReviOS is what I use in my VMs.

I used some config from the christitus winutil. The description and warnings are clear to understand.
