  • 00:00:01
    in this video I'm going over a minimal
  • 00:00:04
    Windows 10 installation it's been a
  • 00:00:06
    while since I've actually covered this
  • 00:00:08
    topic and I've covered it a little bit
  • 00:00:10
    now this is more making the ISO or the
  • 00:00:14
    image to put on a whole bunch of
  • 00:00:17
    different computers that will minimize
  • 00:00:19
    it so you don't need it as fancy
  • 00:00:21
    enterprise or a long term service branch
  • 00:00:23
    and I often actually discourage using a
  • 00:00:27
    lot of these versions of Windows 10
  • 00:00:30
    mainly because when it comes to Windows
  • 00:00:32
    10 and these custom versions that come
  • 00:00:36
    with viruses you usually acquire them
  • 00:00:38
    through like torrent sites and those
  • 00:00:39
    types of things that's no good you don't
  • 00:00:41
    want to be downloading them from there
  • 00:00:43
    just because it can cause all kinds of
  • 00:00:45
    issues with your system it can infect
  • 00:00:49
    your system it can spy on you it can do
  • 00:00:51
    a whole lot of different things so
  • 00:00:52
    downloading them from these sites in
  • 00:00:54
    unauthorized sites I never recommend for
  • 00:00:57
    a whole host of reasons I've personally
  • 00:00:59
    been burned by doing this and that's why
  • 00:01:01
    I said I don't care who you're
  • 00:01:02
    downloading from it's not a reputable
  • 00:01:04
    source I like to get it directly from
  • 00:01:06
    Microsoft and then modify the image so
  • 00:01:09
    that's what we're gonna be doing today
  • 00:01:10
    I'm gonna download the image from
  • 00:01:12
    Microsoft and then modify it directly
  • 00:01:15
    using a tool I called wind toolkit I
  • 00:01:19
    have used in tea light in the past
  • 00:01:21
    however they now charge like 60 bucks
  • 00:01:23
    for it and for this I want to cater to
  • 00:01:26
    the home user that has probably home
  • 00:01:29
    license or maybe even a pro license but
  • 00:01:32
    at the same time you need to be
  • 00:01:35
    customizing because a lot of this stuff
  • 00:01:37
    that's baked into these windows is just
  • 00:01:39
    horrible and bloated and it just doesn't
  • 00:01:42
    feel very good it doesn't feel very fast
  • 00:01:44
    I feel like when I install windows on my
  • 00:01:46
    system it slows me down
  • 00:01:48
    so using these custom images when we
  • 00:01:51
    have to use Windows that's what I always
  • 00:01:53
    used on pretty much any of my systems
  • 00:01:56
    now there's a whole variety of different
  • 00:01:58
    custom images and feature releases which
  • 00:02:01
    I'll probably touch on a different video
  • 00:02:02
    but for this one I'm gonna go ahead and
  • 00:02:04
    use the latest version out 1903 and it's
  • 00:02:07
    gonna be based on that so let's go ahead
  • 00:02:10
    download 1903 and start customizing
  • 00:02:13
    you
  • 00:02:16
    [Music]
  • 00:02:19
    okay so for this video I want to go
  • 00:02:22
    ahead and download all the tools we need
  • 00:02:25
    we're gonna be using 7-zip the win
  • 00:02:29
    official Windows 10 ISO and then
  • 00:02:31
    something called wind toolkit and I use
  • 00:02:33
    major geeks to download it so first I'll
  • 00:02:36
    go to 7-zip gorg download so we'll go
  • 00:02:40
    ahead and extract the 64 bit exe also
  • 00:02:44
    all the links will be in the description
  • 00:02:46
    below so we'll extract this and install
  • 00:02:50
    that 7-zip is installed let's go ahead
  • 00:02:54
    and download this now if you were
  • 00:02:56
    presented with this screen just go ahead
  • 00:02:57
    and download the Windows 10 installation
  • 00:02:59
    run it and then select download ISO or
  • 00:03:03
    download installation media and then
  • 00:03:05
    select ISO not USB that's a key thing so
  • 00:03:09
    we'll download that I've actually
  • 00:03:11
    already downloaded and have it on my
  • 00:03:12
    network drive so we'll copy it over and
  • 00:03:15
    then we download and install wind
  • 00:03:17
    toolkit so we'll go ahead and click that
  • 00:03:20
    and download it as well so that's
  • 00:03:22
    sitting on a Downloads folder it looks
  • 00:03:24
    like 7-zip didn't quite install all the
  • 00:03:26
    way so if you run into this problem just
  • 00:03:28
    select to the 7-zip FM or you could
  • 00:03:32
    right-click and do it as well so there's
  • 00:03:33
    one way of selecting it the other way is
  • 00:03:35
    just to go 7-zip open archive so either
  • 00:03:39
    or sometimes 7-zip has an issue
  • 00:03:40
    associated file associations I just
  • 00:03:43
    wanted to show both methods right there
  • 00:03:45
    so with that we'll go ahead and extract
  • 00:03:48
    this file to our downloads as well so we
  • 00:03:51
    have the 7-zip and now we need to go
  • 00:03:54
    ahead and grab everything else so I'm
  • 00:03:56
    gonna actually go ahead and delete all
  • 00:03:58
    this and then we're just gonna pop open
  • 00:04:01
    our network drive and pull up our images
  • 00:04:05
    folder with our Windows 7 19:03 as we
  • 00:04:09
    want so you can see I go ahead and do a
  • 00:04:12
    lot of different custom images like 1709
  • 00:04:16
    for my most custom version where I've
  • 00:04:17
    ripped out the most stuff I haven't been
  • 00:04:20
    able to replicate that kind of
  • 00:04:21
    minimalism after 1709 because 1803 in
  • 00:04:25
    past started really integrating a lot of
  • 00:04:27
    things in the system or would just
  • 00:04:29
    break a whole host of things when you
  • 00:04:31
    start ripping out like edge and also
  • 00:04:34
    defender and some other integrated
  • 00:04:36
    Microsoft services because they started
  • 00:04:38
    packaging more and more in there
  • 00:04:41
    probably the most hideous one that I
  • 00:04:43
    absolutely despise is onedrive just
  • 00:04:45
    because of how integrated in with actual
  • 00:04:48
    file explorer onedrive is in 1903 and
  • 00:04:51
    1809 are probably the worst offenders
  • 00:04:53
    and it just keeps getting worse but
  • 00:04:55
    we're gonna take 1903 since it's the
  • 00:04:57
    most recent and that's what I wanted to
  • 00:04:59
    show as it'll be far more relevant to
  • 00:05:01
    more people than just customizing an
  • 00:05:04
    older version of Windows that are just
  • 00:05:06
    kind of hard to get a hold of anymore so
  • 00:05:08
    let me copy this one and put it on there
  • 00:05:11
    again you can download this using the
  • 00:05:13
    windows download tool ok with that in
  • 00:05:16
    the directory we can go ahead and
  • 00:05:20
    extract this so we're gonna go ahead and
  • 00:05:22
    say 7-zip extract files to this version
  • 00:05:28
    what this does is it creates a folder
  • 00:05:30
    and extracts the entire CD into here we
  • 00:05:33
    need to go ahead and modify one of the
  • 00:05:35
    install files for a really wind toolkit
  • 00:05:38
    to optimize and create that minimal
  • 00:05:40
    install so we'll come into here and in
  • 00:05:43
    the sources directory we're gonna be
  • 00:05:45
    modifying installed ESD and if we look
  • 00:05:48
    down here at the bottom you see that
  • 00:05:50
    this one actually had dot win which is
  • 00:05:53
    really nice that's actually what we want
  • 00:05:55
    but if you do download an ISO and it has
  • 00:05:57
    installed ESD then we do need to do some
  • 00:06:01
    more stuff ok so we have the windows
  • 00:06:04
    folder extracted and we do have the
  • 00:06:07
    install dot wim if you do have the ESD
  • 00:06:11
    you need to run a PowerShell command
  • 00:06:14
    which I'll put in the description to
  • 00:06:15
    extract the installed wim from the ESD
  • 00:06:21
    file you just have to select the correct
  • 00:06:23
    version and it can be a little
  • 00:06:24
    cumbersome to do however the official
  • 00:06:27
    version I just downloaded all I did was
  • 00:06:29
    select my language and say 64-bit and it
  • 00:06:31
    gave me the exact one I needed so what
  • 00:06:34
    we'll do is go ahead and proceed here
  • 00:06:36
    we'll open up Windows toolkit select the
  • 00:06:39
    all-in-one integrator
  • 00:06:42
    and we're gonna go ahead and browse for
  • 00:06:44
    a wim file so we'll go into our
  • 00:06:47
    downloads folder select this and sources
  • 00:06:50
    and we'll select installed wim and then
  • 00:06:55
    from here we'll get all these different
  • 00:06:57
    ones I'm going to use Windows 10 Pro
  • 00:07:00
    because that's usually what I run on all
  • 00:07:03
    my systems and we're going to go ahead
  • 00:07:06
    and customize this one
  • 00:07:10
    so from this screen we'll just say
  • 00:07:12
    select
  • 00:07:15
    so here is the component remover that
  • 00:07:17
    took about a minute or so minute to two
  • 00:07:19
    minutes to really populate everything
  • 00:07:21
    however this is kind of neat how
  • 00:07:24
    everything pops up there's certain
  • 00:07:25
    things you always have to do one thing I
  • 00:07:28
    recommend this is first time customizing
  • 00:07:30
    Windows 10
  • 00:07:31
    anything that is read leave in do not
  • 00:07:35
    remove it so I'm gonna go ahead and walk
  • 00:07:38
    through a typical customization I do I
  • 00:07:41
    usually leave accessories in multimedia
  • 00:07:42
    completely alone and leave it alone now
  • 00:07:45
    for networking most this I go ahead and
  • 00:07:48
    select and then hit the check box so
  • 00:07:52
    it'll check all these and then you just
  • 00:07:54
    kind of look at what you need now this
  • 00:07:57
    does remove some stuff that you might
  • 00:08:00
    need especially in an enterprise
  • 00:08:01
    environment this is more tailored to the
  • 00:08:03
    home user most people aren't gonna use
  • 00:08:05
    TF TTP and offline files and remote
  • 00:08:09
    assistance
  • 00:08:10
    almost everybody use this team here
  • 00:08:12
    anyway so a lot of this stuff is just
  • 00:08:14
    garbage and not needed so we'll go ahead
  • 00:08:17
    and leave all these completely off our
  • 00:08:20
    system as we simply don't need any of
  • 00:08:22
    them now I is is kind of a funny thing
  • 00:08:25
    now we'll watch what happens when I
  • 00:08:27
    select this dotnet framework 3.15 will
  • 00:08:31
    also be removed this is needed for so
  • 00:08:35
    many games and so much stuff it's not
  • 00:08:37
    worth removing this component so we're
  • 00:08:40
    gonna select no and we are not going to
  • 00:08:43
    remove that mobile PC obviously if it's
  • 00:08:46
    a desktop remove that printing most
  • 00:08:49
    people are gonna just remove all this
  • 00:08:51
    stuff anyways if you have a printer and
  • 00:08:54
    you want to use it you can go ahead and
  • 00:08:56
    leave this one going you know obviously
  • 00:08:58
    on this machine I don't think I'm gonna
  • 00:09:00
    need it at all so a system I like to
  • 00:09:03
    check all this there's one thing that
  • 00:09:05
    says to leave is the HTML engine I'm
  • 00:09:08
    gonna go ahead and honor that however
  • 00:09:10
    I'm gonna leave the dotnet 3.1 or 3.51
  • 00:09:15
    as well but everything else here
  • 00:09:18
    defender search TIFF user assistance all
  • 00:09:22
    this stuff I'm gonna go ahead and rip
  • 00:09:24
    out as well that's a pretty excessive
  • 00:09:27
    thing so I'm
  • 00:09:28
    to search my system neidell hit Windows
  • 00:09:31
    and then start typing to search program
  • 00:09:33
    by removing Windows search however that
  • 00:09:36
    is very resource-intensive in for this
  • 00:09:38
    video I want a minimal Windows 10 that
  • 00:09:40
    runs very fast on pretty much any
  • 00:09:43
    hardware out there it's just you gotta
  • 00:09:45
    really take care of a lot of this other
  • 00:09:47
    stuff also Internet Explorer still
  • 00:09:49
    needed for like old legacy sites so in
  • 00:09:52
    my day job I work for a law firm and a
  • 00:09:54
    lot of courts and other things rely on
  • 00:09:57
    Internet Explorer to file certain legal
  • 00:09:59
    documents so Internet Explorer still
  • 00:10:02
    used I don't know why but it is used on
  • 00:10:05
    the Internet
  • 00:10:05
    and by removing this you might have some
  • 00:10:08
    issues with it later on but if that
  • 00:10:11
    doesn't sound like you will go ahead and
  • 00:10:13
    remove it hyper-v that's a
  • 00:10:16
    virtualization obviously if you're
  • 00:10:18
    watching this and you want to minimize
  • 00:10:19
    Windows 10 you don't need it Windows
  • 00:10:21
    Troubleshooters I go ahead and remove
  • 00:10:23
    and then unknown let's go ahead and
  • 00:10:26
    select this and just kind of go through
  • 00:10:28
    all the stuff that comes in here now I
  • 00:10:31
    am not actually going to select all this
  • 00:10:33
    just because there's certain things I
  • 00:10:35
    don't want remove so let's go ahead and
  • 00:10:38
    take a look here now certain things in
  • 00:10:40
    here we that might need like Group
  • 00:10:42
    Policy client tools like this would be
  • 00:10:44
    GP edit on there's certain things I
  • 00:10:46
    still like to use GP and on even though
  • 00:10:49
    my computer's not connected to a machine
  • 00:10:50
    so I'm gonna leave this on here and not
  • 00:10:52
    remove it and if you're unsure if it's
  • 00:10:55
    in white don't remove it unless you have
  • 00:10:58
    a specific purpose of removing that
  • 00:11:00
    package as these are typically unknown
  • 00:11:02
    to win toolkit and can be issued so one
  • 00:11:07
    thing to note a bunch of hyper-v
  • 00:11:09
    packages which I probably can go in head
  • 00:11:13
    and remove these so let's go ahead and
  • 00:11:15
    do it for this tutorial because we're
  • 00:11:16
    gonna do an install at the end here so
  • 00:11:18
    let's highlight the first go to the end
  • 00:11:21
    and then check them so we just checked
  • 00:11:25
    everything that said hyper-v we'll see
  • 00:11:27
    if we get any errors or any issues with
  • 00:11:30
    that then let's keep going down here
  • 00:11:35
    print to PDF quick assist Microsoft
  • 00:11:39
    storage service I'm gonna go ahead and
  • 00:11:41
    remove
  • 00:11:41
    there's more hyper hyper be stuff here
  • 00:11:45
    so I'm gonna go ahead and remove those
  • 00:11:47
    as well one core containers and stuff
  • 00:11:51
    I'm not gonna mess with this as that can
  • 00:11:53
    tie into a lot of system functions and
  • 00:11:56
    problems can probably arise from
  • 00:11:58
    removing delete supports a folder and
  • 00:12:01
    this is actually a Cavey package
  • 00:12:03
    honestly deleting the update chances are
  • 00:12:06
    it's just gonna redownload it when you
  • 00:12:08
    get a go so it's not really worth
  • 00:12:10
    removing so with all that I think we can
  • 00:12:14
    go ahead and remove these components and
  • 00:12:16
    slim this down so we're gonna go ahead
  • 00:12:18
    and hit continue and we're removing
  • 00:12:20
    about a hundred and forty-seven packages
  • 00:12:22
    out of the five hundred and fifty-five
  • 00:12:25
    hundred and seventy two listed so this
  • 00:12:27
    would be an equivalent of chopping about
  • 00:12:29
    1/4 of Windows tin off which is kind of
  • 00:12:32
    nice you know that's a pretty sizable
  • 00:12:36
    decrease especially in when it comes to
  • 00:12:39
    like windows search and Windows Defender
  • 00:12:41
    these are extremely taxing programs
  • 00:12:43
    that's were removing now they do have
  • 00:12:46
    their benefits search allows you to
  • 00:12:48
    search your computer Windows Defender
  • 00:12:50
    protection against viruses when you're
  • 00:12:52
    online and you download shady stuff so
  • 00:12:55
    they do have their purposes and if it
  • 00:12:57
    sounds like you need them by all means
  • 00:12:59
    use them they aren't bad systems
  • 00:13:02
    it's just they are bloated and I
  • 00:13:05
    consider them to be a very resource
  • 00:13:08
    heavy system function so I'm removing
  • 00:13:11
    these system functions and if I were to
  • 00:13:13
    continue using this computer after
  • 00:13:15
    installation and I've removed like
  • 00:13:17
    Windows Defender I probably would
  • 00:13:19
    install the different antivirus you've
  • 00:13:21
    always asked which paid antivirus do you
  • 00:13:23
    like I like Webroot if you're gonna use
  • 00:13:25
    a free antivirus just use Windows
  • 00:13:27
    Defender a lot of the other free
  • 00:13:29
    antiviruses have nag screens and other
  • 00:13:31
    crap
  • 00:13:32
    it's just not worth it so if you want a
  • 00:13:34
    free antivirus and you want to do that
  • 00:13:36
    just stick with Windows Defender it's
  • 00:13:38
    not bad it has a decent detection rate
  • 00:13:40
    it is not like it was 10 years ago when
  • 00:13:43
    I would never recommend it and I just
  • 00:13:46
    want to throw that out there as far as
  • 00:13:47
    anybody's goes and as far as search
  • 00:13:49
    ability removing search you can always
  • 00:13:51
    use a program called
  • 00:13:53
    which i think is a little less resource
  • 00:13:55
    a heavy and it does a better job of
  • 00:13:57
    searching and on top of that it doesn't
  • 00:13:59
    send a lot of the search results back to
  • 00:14:02
    Microsoft or default to Microsoft edge
  • 00:14:04
    sorter you know opening up when you
  • 00:14:06
    search for something using it so these
  • 00:14:09
    are all really good things I just wanted
  • 00:14:11
    to kind of go ahead and showcase them
  • 00:14:13
    because you know most people would want
  • 00:14:17
    to either remove them and replace it
  • 00:14:19
    with something else or remove them
  • 00:14:21
    altogether there's minimalist out there
  • 00:14:22
    like myself that literally just remove
  • 00:14:24
    these completely because I wanted a bear
  • 00:14:26
    system with about a singular or maybe
  • 00:14:28
    even a two or three purpose system for
  • 00:14:31
    Windows a lot of times when I'm using
  • 00:14:33
    Windows it's for a very specific purpose
  • 00:14:35
    I never use it to browse the web I never
  • 00:14:37
    use it for any of that because I just
  • 00:14:39
    don't find Windows to be very reliable
  • 00:14:41
    or all that secure so I'm gonna go ahead
  • 00:14:44
    and speed this process up probably about
  • 00:14:46
    a thousand percent and get to the end
  • 00:14:48
    here because this is gonna take looking
  • 00:14:52
    about probably about thirty minutes I
  • 00:14:54
    imagine there's also one more thing I
  • 00:14:57
    wanted to point out here looking at
  • 00:14:58
    these packages at the end
  • 00:15:00
    hello faces face recognition for
  • 00:15:02
    unlocking your PC Windows recently
  • 00:15:05
    released they you don't need passwords
  • 00:15:07
    anymore and we can just use your face
  • 00:15:08
    that's a great idea
  • 00:15:11
    and then also if you do remove Windows
  • 00:15:14
    Cortana completely I've stripped this
  • 00:15:17
    out in left search before it breaks
  • 00:15:20
    windows search when you remove cortana
  • 00:15:22
    cortana and windows search are pretty
  • 00:15:24
    much integrated the same on this package
  • 00:15:27
    once it finishes removing i probably
  • 00:15:28
    will go back and remove hello face and
  • 00:15:31
    windows cortana as well as both those
  • 00:15:34
    services are considered a pretty extreme
  • 00:15:37
    bloat in my situation and i don't like
  • 00:15:39
    either one of them mainly because
  • 00:15:41
    Cortana is almost like spyware in my
  • 00:15:43
    opinion and then Hello face obviously is
  • 00:15:47
    recording and using your webcam to
  • 00:15:49
    record your face which is also not a
  • 00:15:51
    very good thing in my opinion I don't
  • 00:15:54
    want either one of those I'm kind of
  • 00:15:56
    old-school in that I like to just type
  • 00:15:58
    my password in log in and use my
  • 00:15:59
    computer
  • 00:16:02
    okay so we finished with the entire
  • 00:16:04
    component removal here and we figured
  • 00:16:07
    out there's a couple things now this
  • 00:16:10
    folder I'm actually leaving me you can
  • 00:16:12
    actually keep modifying and removing and
  • 00:16:15
    fine-tuning just remember when you
  • 00:16:17
    remove something it's removed for good
  • 00:16:19
    so there's no reading something though
  • 00:16:22
    oops just no that's not possible however
  • 00:16:25
    I already kind of went through and said
  • 00:16:27
    hey I want to go ahead and remove like
  • 00:16:29
    Windows Defender Windows Cortana windows
  • 00:16:31
    hello face in these things I just want
  • 00:16:35
    to completely get rid of so let's go
  • 00:16:38
    ahead and remove four extra components
  • 00:16:40
    after we did our initial removal so
  • 00:16:43
    we'll go ahead and remove these as well
  • 00:16:44
    now Windows Cortana is a big component
  • 00:16:48
    so this may take some time but not too
  • 00:16:52
    bad actually it was only about a minute
  • 00:16:53
    or two and then the rest these will go
  • 00:16:56
    ahead and filter out but please note
  • 00:16:59
    when removing system services like this
  • 00:17:01
    it will affect certain system functions
  • 00:17:04
    like Cortana is vital to the screen that
  • 00:17:08
    pops up the welcome screen the login
  • 00:17:10
    screen where it shows like hey this
  • 00:17:13
    video is made in Venice Italy and all
  • 00:17:15
    these things it uses Cortana to filter
  • 00:17:17
    and use that information so it's gonna
  • 00:17:20
    break that when I remove it so just know
  • 00:17:22
    when you remove big system services like
  • 00:17:25
    Cortana there's gonna be some side
  • 00:17:27
    effects and that's just part of it so
  • 00:17:30
    right now we're down to I think about
  • 00:17:33
    400 packages here from the initial 660
  • 00:17:38
    or so I forget how much was but a
  • 00:17:41
    considerable downsize from our original
  • 00:17:43
    actually we're down to 351 packages so
  • 00:17:48
    this is actually a considerable downsize
  • 00:17:50
    from what we had now from here I think
  • 00:17:54
    we are pretty much done we're gonna go
  • 00:17:56
    ahead and close out of our component
  • 00:17:58
    remover and you get this so we're gonna
  • 00:18:01
    go ahead and hit save and rebuild this
  • 00:18:04
    goes ahead and saves all the changes to
  • 00:18:06
    the wim file the install dot wim file
  • 00:18:09
    and we'll be good so let's go ahead and
  • 00:18:11
    save and rebuild and this was going to
  • 00:18:14
    go ahead and save the
  • 00:18:15
    and rebuild it it was roughly four point
  • 00:18:18
    eight gigs when we started this I'm
  • 00:18:20
    curious to see what it is now so let's
  • 00:18:23
    go ahead and wait for this rebuild to
  • 00:18:25
    happen and then we'll pick back up after
  • 00:18:28
    it has finished
  • 00:18:37
    all right so here we go now we're back
  • 00:18:41
    after the rebuild it looks like it's
  • 00:18:43
    shaved off a good bit not too much off
  • 00:18:47
    the install file but still enough at
  • 00:18:50
    least 100 or 200 Meg's
  • 00:18:51
    but that's not really what matters what
  • 00:18:54
    matters is all that crap we uninstalled
  • 00:18:56
    isn't gonna run when we start our
  • 00:18:58
    Windows 10 so we have everything set
  • 00:19:01
    here there's a couple other things I
  • 00:19:04
    like to do before creating the ISO but
  • 00:19:07
    you can just do component removal to
  • 00:19:09
    have that stock setting because this is
  • 00:19:12
    pretty much a stock install at this
  • 00:19:13
    point just with a couple tweaks and some
  • 00:19:15
    components removed however if you go to
  • 00:19:18
    the intermediate tab you can actually go
  • 00:19:20
    ahead and make an unattended creator
  • 00:19:22
    willow create accounts which is really
  • 00:19:24
    nice and we're gonna do a Auto login as
  • 00:19:28
    administrator I like to create
  • 00:19:30
    everything after doing it I don't like
  • 00:19:32
    doing that initial setup that just kind
  • 00:19:34
    of stinks as far as that goes you can
  • 00:19:37
    set an admin password as well right here
  • 00:19:40
    I'm not going to for this because as a
  • 00:19:42
    default I want to go ahead and just do
  • 00:19:44
    it computer name if you leave this blank
  • 00:19:46
    it's usually like win and then a whole
  • 00:19:48
    bunch of like hexadecimal digits
  • 00:19:51
    afterwards hide wireless set up network
  • 00:19:54
    location let's see if we can't set that
  • 00:19:56
    now we can't set that times um some of
  • 00:20:00
    this we need to actually do in the
  • 00:20:03
    actual setup but we're gonna set up as
  • 00:20:05
    much as we can in this one I'm Central
  • 00:20:07
    Time us updates we're gonna go ahead and
  • 00:20:11
    say don't download or install most times
  • 00:20:13
    this gets overwritten anyways this is a
  • 00:20:15
    registry setting that it's doing so
  • 00:20:17
    especially on Windows home it almost
  • 00:20:20
    always ignores the registry setting and
  • 00:20:22
    you don't have any group policy to fall
  • 00:20:24
    back on to it's kind of sucks but hey
  • 00:20:27
    that's the rule we live in with
  • 00:20:29
    Microsoft and let's go to users here you
  • 00:20:33
    could actually create a user if you
  • 00:20:34
    don't want to do the default as
  • 00:20:36
    administrator which you probably don't
  • 00:20:37
    actually wouldn't recommend it use your
  • 00:20:40
    name I like to have caps that's just
  • 00:20:42
    something in me just says that's no good
  • 00:20:45
    so let's go ahead and do Titus is that
  • 00:20:48
    you
  • 00:20:48
    and then Chris Titus as the display name
  • 00:20:51
    light password everything else is the
  • 00:20:53
    same we're going to come back here and
  • 00:20:55
    then set this to Titus with a cab and
  • 00:20:59
    from here we have pretty much everything
  • 00:21:02
    that we can set here in the editor you
  • 00:21:05
    can do even more stuff if you're
  • 00:21:06
    familiar with XML editing and an
  • 00:21:08
    unattended file you can also do that all
  • 00:21:12
    right we're gonna hit save we're gonna
  • 00:21:13
    go on Auto unattended XML let's go ahead
  • 00:21:17
    and save this to our downloads
  • 00:21:20
    so you need to place this on the DVD or
  • 00:21:23
    USB route in order for it to work so
  • 00:21:26
    we'll create the CD or USB Drive
  • 00:21:29
    probably USB Drive for most folks out
  • 00:21:32
    there and then when it's creating or
  • 00:21:35
    before it's burning if it's a DVD
  • 00:21:36
    obviously you need to drag this onto the
  • 00:21:39
    route after importing the ISO but on
  • 00:21:42
    USBs which is just going to be probably
  • 00:21:44
    90% of the audience you just need to
  • 00:21:46
    copy this auto attendant to the USB and
  • 00:21:49
    we'll go ahead and do that afterwards as
  • 00:21:51
    well okay to make the ISO file we
  • 00:21:53
    actually need to select the folder and
  • 00:21:55
    then from the folder we select the ISO
  • 00:21:58
    output just make sure before in the
  • 00:22:01
    video I actually selected downloads
  • 00:22:02
    that's why we got this giant ISO we're
  • 00:22:06
    gonna go ahead and overwrite that
  • 00:22:07
    existing one that's like fourteen seven
  • 00:22:09
    gigs I thought something was up when
  • 00:22:12
    that was the case much better
  • 00:22:16
    projected to be 4.9 gigs which the
  • 00:22:20
    official version is actually 4.8 so
  • 00:22:24
    there was probably a lot of
  • 00:22:25
    uncompressing happening and when it went
  • 00:22:27
    to compress it back for the ISO it just
  • 00:22:30
    missed some of that compression it's
  • 00:22:32
    just not quite as tight as from
  • 00:22:35
    Microsoft um and that's to be expected
  • 00:22:37
    because they had to extract so many
  • 00:22:39
    archives and then say I want to rip this
  • 00:22:41
    out this out this out and it can't
  • 00:22:42
    compress that archive back to be exactly
  • 00:22:45
    the same so that's why you see a little
  • 00:22:48
    bit of a size increase on the actual
  • 00:22:51
    installation media when using this tool
  • 00:22:53
    but now we actually have the ISO created
  • 00:22:55
    let's go ahead and burn it we're gonna
  • 00:22:57
    use Rufus for that so let's go ahead and
  • 00:22:59
    close out of this we're going to open up
  • 00:23:02
    our Rufus and that's you can go to Rufus
  • 00:23:04
    dot ie
  • 00:23:05
    link will be in the description let's
  • 00:23:07
    select our ISO file here the custom and
  • 00:23:11
    the custom file did actually end up
  • 00:23:13
    coming in almost the same size as the
  • 00:23:16
    original so that's cool alright we're
  • 00:23:19
    going to label this win 10 and then go
  • 00:23:22
    ahead and hit start now I do see fat you
  • 00:23:27
    probably should switch this to NTFS if
  • 00:23:30
    you have issues usually if the wim file
  • 00:23:32
    is bigger than
  • 00:23:33
    for gigs you need to switch it from
  • 00:23:35
    fat32 to NTFS some people miss that
  • 00:23:38
    especially as you add drivers and other
  • 00:23:41
    things to it the wim file kind of bloats
  • 00:23:44
    up in fat32 can deal with such a large
  • 00:23:47
    wim file so I'm gonna go ahead and
  • 00:23:49
    switch this to NTFS okay so whenever
  • 00:23:53
    using in tf2 to boot you got to remember
  • 00:23:56
    you got to disable secure boot because
  • 00:23:58
    it's not compatible with in DFS so
  • 00:24:00
    that's only if you have a really large
  • 00:24:03
    installed dot wim file especially the
  • 00:24:06
    newer versions of Windows it just is
  • 00:24:09
    gotten so bloated that a lot of times
  • 00:24:11
    you have to do this if you run into
  • 00:24:13
    issues you can go ahead and try fat32
  • 00:24:16
    just know if you run into issues it's
  • 00:24:17
    probably when burning the actual install
  • 00:24:21
    dot wim onto USB a lot of times it deals
  • 00:24:25
    with the wim file being larger than four
  • 00:24:27
    gigs so we're gonna go ahead and close
  • 00:24:29
    here
  • 00:24:30
    I'm not running the secure boot so no
  • 00:24:32
    problem so we're gonna go ahead and
  • 00:24:34
    close this as well now you think we're
  • 00:24:36
    done ready to install let's go ahead and
  • 00:24:39
    get that Auto unattended we need to take
  • 00:24:42
    that take it over to our Drive which is
  • 00:24:46
    this guy and we're gonna paste that
  • 00:24:48
    right in there so this is where you put
  • 00:24:51
    it in the route and from here we should
  • 00:24:56
    be pretty good to go so let's go ahead
  • 00:24:58
    and restart this computer see if we can
  • 00:25:01
    actually install a fresh version of
  • 00:25:04
    Windows 10 on this box now this is
  • 00:25:06
    pretty much my throwaway main PC for my
  • 00:25:09
    studio I use this for doing pretty much
  • 00:25:13
    anything so let's go ahead and this is
  • 00:25:15
    gonna be bare metal no virtual machine
  • 00:25:18
    or anything here no trickery we're just
  • 00:25:20
    gonna boot directly from this on startup
  • 00:25:23
    so
  • 00:25:25
    we're gonna go ahead and select our boot
  • 00:25:27
    menu f11 and from here I'm just gonna go
  • 00:25:32
    the USB SanDisk oh actually that was
  • 00:25:35
    legacy boot let's control delete this so
  • 00:25:38
    we'll go ahead and restart since it's in
  • 00:25:41
    DFS it has to be UEFI
  • 00:25:44
    so we're gonna go you fel partition one
  • 00:25:47
    see what we get it looks like it liked
  • 00:25:50
    that one
  • 00:25:52
    so set up the starting this is where a
  • 00:25:55
    lot of the auto attendant should take
  • 00:25:57
    care of most of like account creation
  • 00:26:00
    and those things that really slow us
  • 00:26:02
    down when doing it so let's see what
  • 00:26:05
    happens it didn't do the EULA didn't do
  • 00:26:08
    the product key let's just go ahead and
  • 00:26:10
    say I don't have it select our version
  • 00:26:13
    hit next and then let's just go ahead
  • 00:26:16
    and wipe out this computer
  • 00:26:19
    and necks so it looks like with 1903 the
  • 00:26:24
    auto attendant did not work when I
  • 00:26:27
    dragged that XML file back on the route
  • 00:26:30
    he normally does work when you do that
  • 00:26:33
    just know hey I bet the work on it look
  • 00:26:38
    for an update about 1903 on it
  • 00:26:40
    unattended not working I'm sure there's
  • 00:26:43
    something we can do to go ahead and do
  • 00:26:45
    that but we'll go ahead and see what
  • 00:26:47
    happens here
  • 00:26:47
    I still have hope for the auto account
  • 00:26:50
    creation that's the thing that really
  • 00:26:51
    slows me down on these installs is after
  • 00:26:55
    about 1803 a lot of times they want you
  • 00:26:58
    to use a Microsoft account instead of a
  • 00:27:00
    local account
  • 00:27:03
    so let's go ahead and restart here it
  • 00:27:05
    looks like we're installed already that
  • 00:27:07
    was a pretty darn quick install I didn't
  • 00:27:10
    even have to speed anything up I think I
  • 00:27:12
    was about a four-minute install of
  • 00:27:14
    Windows 10 let's see what it looks like
  • 00:27:16
    on boot though that's really the the key
  • 00:27:19
    here now I am using USB 3 I am using
  • 00:27:23
    UEFI and I am using all of the things to
  • 00:27:28
    basically speed this up it's not using
  • 00:27:30
    fat32 it's using NTFS all of those
  • 00:27:34
    things speed up the install considerably
  • 00:27:36
    and remember we have been doing a lot of
  • 00:27:39
    component removal now on top of all
  • 00:27:44
    those factors that also speed up the
  • 00:27:46
    install we also had unencrypted a lot of
  • 00:27:51
    that installed WM wim when we actually
  • 00:27:54
    did the component removal that means
  • 00:27:57
    that since it sits in an uncompressed
  • 00:27:59
    State for some of those archives it can
  • 00:28:02
    read and install it even faster so we're
  • 00:28:06
    at a four minute install during that
  • 00:28:08
    install screen which most people I bet
  • 00:28:10
    as you watch this we're going holy crap
  • 00:28:11
    that's fast and like I said this is bare
  • 00:28:14
    metal so it's not sitting in a VM or not
  • 00:28:17
    sitting on a hypervisor I mean this is a
  • 00:28:19
    physical box that I'm setting up here
  • 00:28:22
    this is pretty fast so let's see how
  • 00:28:25
    long this takes it's at 6 minutes right
  • 00:28:27
    now on the install
  • 00:28:30
    all right so here's our welcome screen
  • 00:28:32
    we are officially seven minutes in let's
  • 00:28:36
    go ahead and see how fast I can get
  • 00:28:38
    through this now as you noticed anybody
  • 00:28:41
    that's done a Windows 10 install usually
  • 00:28:42
    Cortana screaming at you right now and
  • 00:28:45
    we don't have that so pretty nice we are
  • 00:28:51
    now eight minutes in
  • 00:28:53
    all right and we are in right at nine
  • 00:28:56
    minutes so actually a little bit less
  • 00:28:59
    than nine minutes here there we go so we
  • 00:29:02
    do have a John here of course there's
  • 00:29:04
    just no getting around getting edge off
  • 00:29:06
    of the install anymore 1709 was the last
  • 00:29:09
    time you could actually remove edge by
  • 00:29:11
    default let's see what our install looks
  • 00:29:14
    like and now they're still installing
  • 00:29:16
    crap on here which to be expected I
  • 00:29:18
    guess but not nearly as much crap as you
  • 00:29:22
    usually get from the stock install so I
  • 00:29:24
    would usually at this point unpin
  • 00:29:27
    everything go ahead
  • 00:29:30
    go to night-night download my normal
  • 00:29:33
    utilities why it's also loading my
  • 00:29:35
    install up when you first get Windows 10
  • 00:29:37
    installed it's usually downloading a
  • 00:29:40
    bunch of apps normally you'd come in
  • 00:29:42
    here pick Chrome or Firefox you know
  • 00:29:45
    notepad plus plus and then you can pick
  • 00:29:49
    anything else you'd want TeamViewer if
  • 00:29:51
    you have a burner PLC's also a good one
  • 00:29:54
    I'll go ahead and just pick a couple
  • 00:29:57
    things just to install and have but most
  • 00:30:01
    of these I think we can just leave off
  • 00:30:03
    and do this so
  • 00:30:09
    here we go
  • 00:30:12
    downloading and running this and this
  • 00:30:16
    will install our programs in the
  • 00:30:18
    background so you can see it kind of
  • 00:30:20
    loaded some bloatware we got a bubble
  • 00:30:24
    which three Sokka on here
  • 00:30:26
    thanks Microsoft and stickies Adobe
  • 00:30:31
    Photoshop Spotify and that's about it
  • 00:30:36
    so we're gonna go ahead and start
  • 00:30:39
    uninstalling any of these that are on
  • 00:30:42
    here I just like to flip through get rid
  • 00:30:45
    of as much stuff as I can
  • 00:30:49
    they'll probably other scrap that goes
  • 00:30:52
    ahead and pops up but what we can do
  • 00:30:55
    here now is go into the full deep blue
  • 00:30:58
    script if you hadn't seen my deployed
  • 00:30:59
    script it's one of the very first videos
  • 00:31:01
    I had on my channel that really blew up
  • 00:31:03
    so it's still good today
  • 00:31:06
    the maker of that on github is still
  • 00:31:09
    updating it almost on a weekly basis
  • 00:31:11
    still and it is a go-to so go ahead and
  • 00:31:15
    strip out some of this stuff after doing
  • 00:31:17
    the deployed script I'll do oh and oh
  • 00:31:19
    shut up so I can actually show that real
  • 00:31:21
    fast let's go ahead and launch Chrome
  • 00:31:25
    and we'll just put D bloat windows 10
  • 00:31:30
    and we'll go ahead and click the first
  • 00:31:33
    article which happens to me my meme
  • 00:31:35
    right here we'll go to the github and
  • 00:31:38
    we'll go ahead and download the deep
  • 00:31:41
    load script so we're go ahead and just
  • 00:31:43
    do a sample run of this just so you guys
  • 00:31:46
    can see it and we're gonna extract that
  • 00:31:48
    to our downloads so we've got that done
  • 00:31:51
    so let's go ahead and launch our
  • 00:31:53
    PowerShell and we're gonna go ahead and
  • 00:31:56
    change this let's go ahead and make our
  • 00:31:58
    system unsecure by hitting never notify
  • 00:32:01
    because I hate you AC but if you are a
  • 00:32:05
    person that likes to click a bunch of
  • 00:32:06
    ads and browse the internet on Windows
  • 00:32:07
    10 don't do what I just did and we'll go
  • 00:32:11
    ahead and set our execution policy to
  • 00:32:14
    unrestricted now a lot of people give me
  • 00:32:20
    crap for saying unrestricted but you can
  • 00:32:22
    easily come back and change this back to
  • 00:32:24
    restricted just from unrestricted if you
  • 00:32:27
    after it runs just said set execution
  • 00:32:29
    poly so you've restricted it'll just go
  • 00:32:31
    right back so not a big deal at all I
  • 00:32:34
    don't know why so many people made a
  • 00:32:35
    fuss about that actually we need to
  • 00:32:38
    downloads from downloads we'll go into
  • 00:32:42
    the deep bloat do an LS and we're gonna
  • 00:32:45
    go ahead and run Windows 10 deep loader
  • 00:32:48
    ps1 and we're just gonna go ahead and
  • 00:32:51
    say yes to the bloat now yes to remove
  • 00:32:53
    everything this unpinned all our stuff
  • 00:32:55
    from our Start menu gives us that fresh
  • 00:32:57
    install it'll go through and clean up
  • 00:33:00
    even more stuff now you're probably
  • 00:33:02
    thinking why
  • 00:33:03
    is done on the component removal the
  • 00:33:05
    component removals only a small portion
  • 00:33:07
    of it Microsoft's always-on connection
  • 00:33:10
    it's always there it's always snoop and
  • 00:33:13
    it's always downloading and uploading
  • 00:33:15
    it's constantly bloating up your system
  • 00:33:18
    so you will run this you'll need to
  • 00:33:21
    redownload it and run it again probably
  • 00:33:23
    here in 6 months to keep a clean system
  • 00:33:25
    on Windows 10 but here is the sample
  • 00:33:28
    deep blow to really have a minimal
  • 00:33:31
    install and this will go ahead and get
  • 00:33:35
    rid of a lot of Xbox games and and those
  • 00:33:38
    types of things that are in here that
  • 00:33:39
    are integrated into Windows 10 because
  • 00:33:42
    again this is about minimizing as much
  • 00:33:45
    crap as we can and getting it off so you
  • 00:33:47
    might get a couple errors here and that
  • 00:33:49
    is totally okay not a big deal so
  • 00:33:51
    alright go ahead yes to this yes -
  • 00:33:55
    stopping edge from taking over as the
  • 00:33:58
    PDF viewer yest uninstalling onedrive
  • 00:34:00
    yes - unpinning everything from the
  • 00:34:03
    Start menu
  • 00:34:04
    and yes to install 3.55 there 3.5 a lot
  • 00:34:09
    of games and a lot of actual
  • 00:34:11
    applications use 3.5 so pretty much
  • 00:34:14
    every new system build I install net 3
  • 00:34:16
    3.5 because so many things rely on it
  • 00:34:21
    we're not going to reboot the machine
  • 00:34:23
    just yet we still have some more stuff
  • 00:34:26
    to do so we've devoted it using the
  • 00:34:28
    script let's go ahead and look at our
  • 00:34:30
    settings real fast I like to go to
  • 00:34:32
    updates and then Advanced Options and
  • 00:34:36
    from here we're gonna go ahead and
  • 00:34:38
    choose feature update and delay one year
  • 00:34:43
    quality updates I usually like to do 30
  • 00:34:47
    days delaying is nice because the update
  • 00:34:50
    comes out you don't immediately get it
  • 00:34:52
    it has time to work its through all
  • 00:34:55
    those other people it didn't do these
  • 00:34:57
    settings and screw up their computers
  • 00:34:58
    because most the stuff doesn't have the
  • 00:35:00
    quality assurance it messes up a lot of
  • 00:35:03
    computers every business out there sets
  • 00:35:07
    this I don't know any system admin that
  • 00:35:10
    doesn't delay updates no system person
  • 00:35:13
    out there installs updates right out of
  • 00:35:15
    the gate unless they're just completely
  • 00:35:17
    crazy or stupid or both so here I go
  • 00:35:21
    ahead and just turn this off and then
  • 00:35:25
    privacy settings we're gonna adjust all
  • 00:35:27
    the privacy settings use an oh no shut
  • 00:35:29
    up so it's not that big a deal I just
  • 00:35:31
    like to delay the updates first and then
  • 00:35:35
    let's go back in and do oh and oh shut
  • 00:35:37
    up real fast so we'll go download oh and
  • 00:35:40
    oh shut up
  • 00:35:44
    so what most people do is once in here
  • 00:35:47
    they go ahead and apply all of the
  • 00:35:50
    recommended updates and that that would
  • 00:35:53
    be my de facto if you're unsure apply
  • 00:35:56
    all the recommended I like to go a
  • 00:35:59
    little bit above and be gone and go
  • 00:36:01
    apply all and somewhat recommended so
  • 00:36:04
    there's only a couple things that are
  • 00:36:06
    left on this prohibit apps from running
  • 00:36:09
    on the background I actually like to
  • 00:36:11
    leave this enable because I don't want
  • 00:36:12
    any Windows Store apps running without
  • 00:36:14
    it being in the forefront that'll mess
  • 00:36:17
    up a lot of things such as like the Xbox
  • 00:36:19
    Store or any other things you download
  • 00:36:22
    through the Microsoft Store so please
  • 00:36:24
    note on that just say Apple smart screen
  • 00:36:26
    filter I don't really use edge so I also
  • 00:36:28
    disabled that Windows updates it's still
  • 00:36:33
    enabled but you notice we've already
  • 00:36:35
    delayed them we will disable Microsoft
  • 00:36:38
    onedrive because we uninstalled it using
  • 00:36:40
    the dip loader and then we'll also
  • 00:36:42
    disable Windows Defender which actually
  • 00:36:45
    is not installed as you see here there's
  • 00:36:48
    only three icons that we have but let's
  • 00:36:50
    go ahead and put that in anyways so from
  • 00:36:53
    here we can just go ahead and hit exit
  • 00:36:56
    and we'll hit close and then we'll hit
  • 00:36:59
    restart from here are we now have a very
  • 00:37:02
    very clean minimal de bloated Windows 10
  • 00:37:06
    so we did a hardware bloat to really
  • 00:37:09
    remove Windows Defender all of the other
  • 00:37:13
    applications that are built into Windows
  • 00:37:15
    10 we delayed our updates this ensures
  • 00:37:18
    that we don't have a bunch of feature
  • 00:37:20
    updates happening all the time we
  • 00:37:22
    delayed our security updates so we're
  • 00:37:23
    not constantly getting bleeding-edge
  • 00:37:27
    updates these bleeding-edge updates a
  • 00:37:29
    lot of times are really bad they mess up
  • 00:37:32
    your computer you can have all kinds of
  • 00:37:34
    bugs and issues like that so I like to
  • 00:37:36
    delay 30 days on those if you really
  • 00:37:39
    want them sooner you can set this to
  • 00:37:41
    probably seven days or even five days
  • 00:37:43
    probably as the lowest I'd go but from

    here this is all we have in our Start
  • 00:37:48
    menu it's a bit more bloated than I
  • 00:37:52
    would personally like but it's not bad
  • 00:37:55
    it is very
  • 00:37:57
    functional we have a pretty fast
  • 00:38:01
    computer here it is working pretty darn
  • 00:38:03
    good it's on the latest feature update
  • 00:38:06
    that is not horrible
  • 00:38:09
    so the unintended actually to follow
  • 00:38:12
    back up on that it missed a lot of
  • 00:38:13
    options but it did go ahead and skip
  • 00:38:16
    like the network settings it did create
  • 00:38:18
    our local account which was nice
  • 00:38:21
    it didn't get our product key and some
  • 00:38:22
    other things we threw in there to just
  • 00:38:24
    go ahead and skip through all of that
  • 00:38:26
    so wasn't completely unattended however
  • 00:38:28
    I might come back and revisit the actual
  • 00:38:31
    full unattended so you wouldn't actually
  • 00:38:33
    have any prompts but as you saw not very
  • 00:38:35
    many prompts we had less than a nine
  • 00:38:37
    minute to desktop after inserting the
  • 00:38:41
    USB Drive in our computer back there
  • 00:38:42
    that's pretty good overall we're about
  • 00:38:45
    20 minutes in after running the de bloat
  • 00:38:47
    script and do an oh no shut up and then
  • 00:38:49
    also doing a lot of the sets of that so
  • 00:38:52
    there's still a couple things to do as
  • 00:38:54
    far as setting everything to default
  • 00:38:57
    these types of things still need to be
  • 00:39:00
    fixed but if you look at privacy
  • 00:39:03
    settings it is far better than where it
  • 00:39:05
    was but we disabled telemetry our CPU
  • 00:39:09
    usage if we look here is pretty good not
  • 00:39:12
    bad we have one percent utilization most
  • 00:39:16
    windows boxes out of the gate is around
  • 00:39:19
    20 percent utilization or 10 percent
  • 00:39:21
    utilization so this is actually pretty
  • 00:39:24
    decent as far as a deep bloated windows
  • 00:39:28
    can we still have some activity so not
  • 00:39:30
    great but if you don't want activity on
  • 00:39:33
    startup like that you're not going to be
  • 00:39:35
    using Windows 10 you'd use like a
  • 00:39:37
    minimal install of a Linux build or
  • 00:39:39
    something like that however this is
  • 00:39:42
    light-years better then probably 99% of
  • 00:39:45
    the Windows users out there I can't tell
  • 00:39:48
    you how many people don't be bloated
  • 00:39:50
    don't bother
  • 00:39:51
    delaying updates don't bother with the
  • 00:39:54
    privacy settings letting telemetry run
  • 00:39:56
    wild
  • 00:39:57
    letting Microsoft choose everything from
  • 00:39:59
    the antivirus to everything and this
  • 00:40:01
    could just turn into a 30 minute rant
  • 00:40:03
    which I've already done probably five
  • 00:40:05
    different times on this channel about
  • 00:40:07
    Windows 10 but this is about
  • 00:40:08
    minimal Windows 10 and we have achieved
  • 00:40:11
    it we have done pretty much the
  • 00:40:14
    impossible in made Windows 10 somewhat
  • 00:40:17
    efficient somewhat not a resource hog
  • 00:40:20
    well there you have it that is the full
  • 00:40:23
    customization of Windows 10 I really
  • 00:40:26
    really dig this custom version just
  • 00:40:28
    because I'm able to strip out a lot of
  • 00:40:30
    stuff now in 1903 there's still some
  • 00:40:33
    stuff that gets left in there which I am
  • 00:40:35
    NOT a fan of back in 1709 which is about
  • 00:40:39
    two years prior I could really really
  • 00:40:42
    customize Windows 10 if you've seen some
  • 00:40:44
    old videos where it didn't have anything
  • 00:40:46
    like edge defender a lot of the other
  • 00:40:49
    stuff I was actually able to rip out
  • 00:40:51
    more from the older versions of Windows
  • 00:40:53
    10 because it wasn't as integrated but
  • 00:40:56
    as time has gone on Windows 10 has kind
  • 00:40:58
    of gotten worse and into more of an
  • 00:41:00
    integrated bloated mess that were able
  • 00:41:02
    to customize less and less and why I
  • 00:41:05
    recommend Linux and why I think that's
  • 00:41:08
    where the future of desktop computing is
  • 00:41:11
    I think Windows will be considerably
  • 00:41:14
    less as time goes on but time will tell
  • 00:41:17
    on that I know Linux has seen a lot of
  • 00:41:20
    growth this past year and that's mainly
  • 00:41:23
    due to its gaming section really
  • 00:41:25
    catching up with valve releasing steam
  • 00:41:27
    play last year and then expanding on it
  • 00:41:30
    just recently I'm about to make a video
  • 00:41:32
    over this then releasing a new compiler
  • 00:41:34
    that actually outperforms Windows in a
  • 00:41:37
    lot of gaming so that's where the future
  • 00:41:40
    of the actual desktop lies and those
  • 00:41:43
    that are stuck on Windows and just kind
  • 00:41:46
    of sit there saying no you can't use
  • 00:41:48
    anything else are the ones that are
  • 00:41:50
    gonna be lost and left in the past but
  • 00:41:53
    with all that said let me know your
  • 00:41:54
    thoughts down in the comments section
  • 00:41:56
    below
  • 00:41:57
    how'd I do on this was there anything I
  • 00:41:58
    missed during the customization I know
  • 00:42:00
    in tealight had a little more features
  • 00:42:02
    there's a little more user-friendly
  • 00:42:03
    however it does cost a lot of money to
  • 00:42:06
    fully use it so that's why I didn't use
  • 00:42:09
    it for this video and why it shows when
  • 00:42:10
    toolkit because it's accessible to
  • 00:42:12
    everyone but other than that a big
  • 00:42:15
    shout-out to my patrons without you I
  • 00:42:16
    couldn't make videos like this one and
  • 00:42:18
    I'll see you in the next one
