New laptops without extra software, only the useful ones remain.
New laptops without extra software, only the useful ones remain.
They’re looking to optimize their new Windows 10 setup for Christmas. For cleaning up the bloat, a full Windows 10 refresh is a good start. To keep using their Office 365 key legally, you can reinstall it during the update process or use a trusted third-party tool that respects licensing. Instead of uninstalling each app individually, consider using built-in optimization tools or a reputable cleanup utility. For photo viewers, Chrome is solid, VLC is reliable, and SpiderBOT’s anti-beacon extension helps with privacy.
Office 365 remains stable if you perform a clean reinstall. Just reinstall it and log in. Some laptops come with unnecessary software preloaded, so be cautious. Using Ninite to build a tailored installer and placing it on a USB drive can speed things up. Not every new laptop suffers this issue, but it varies.
Select the options you dislike, and they'll handle them individually for you. This will eliminate the need to begin or finish each one yourself.
