Popular Post edbk Posted August 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 7, 2015 Hi Everyone, I've installed windows 10 a few times already and am getting tired manually changing settings, removing/uninstalling apps and features. So I've started with the makings of what will hopefully turn out to be a guide / script to do it all automatically for us. Unfortunately I have limited spare time for this project (out of many) so was hoping we could turn it into a community effort! This is what I've come up with so far using windows powershell (included with my windows 10 Pro installation). Use at your own risk!!! Before I was able to use Powershell I had to do a few things, I dont know if this is typical for every install but for me: - Set your network to private: Start - Homegroup - Change Network Location - YES - Start Powershell as administrator - Right click - Run as Administrator - Once inside Powershell I had to enter the following 2 lines: $session = New-CimSession -ComputerName "localhost"winrm quickconfig Now we can get started: ## To show installed apps enter: Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online ## To remove apps, I selected a bunch of harmless looking ones: Remove-AppxPackage

edbk Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 I have around 300 disable apps/features/services lines now, figured out how to put it all in an executable file.

ecwl Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Yeah. This is impressive. I used the Computer Audio Design scripts for my Windows 8.1 machine which already had everything turned off and uninstalled. But I now realize, if I were to upgrade to Windows 10, I would actually have to uninstall all the new apps first, reconfigure the machine before I can even get to the stage of running a script to shutdown all the services. Not sure if I'll ever be up to the task in the near future but thanks for sharing. Very helpful. Link to comment
completeluxury Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 id love to help but i have no experience disabling scripts etc in windows or any OS for that matter. at the end of your help document it says to run the script.. did you mean to atttach it to this thread? Link to comment
bibo01 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I am following with interest. id love to help but i have no experience disabling scripts etc in windows or any OS for that matter. at the end of your help document it says to run the script.. did you mean to atttach it to this thread? edbk said it is a work in progress How curious are you? Link to comment
edbk Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 The "script" is already in the first 2 posts, you just copy&paste that into windows powershell But I can turn it onto a command line script or executable. this is a pretty safe configuration as of yet. Cant find anything not working. Been working on memory consumption and windows 10 now consumes 800Mb in stead of 1,2Gb. The improvement over stock is quite remarkable. Link to comment
edbk Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 I just have to add I was a satisfied server 2012 with Audiophil's AO user, after hearing windows 10 there's just no going back. The difference is enormous. Unfortunately it looks like an AO for windows 10 is months away, hence this diy effort to carry me over till then. Link to comment

edbk Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 I'll post some more later today, i ran into some issues stopping services that have dependencies etc by script, turns out to be as easy as adding a -force parameter ? Link to comment
edbk Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 I updated the manual, it includes the disable lines with instructions how to use, figured out how to do a lot of lines in single lines etc, pretty short now also included manually disabling defender since I havent figured out how to disable the services for that. New manual attached to this post. Windows Audio is disabled, I dont need those with HQPlayer, but you can easily reenable those with: Set-Service AudioSrv -StartupType automatic Set-Service AudioEndpointBuilder -StartupType automatic reboot Or re-enable by mouse in services.msc. Or remove the 2 lines in the disable script lines I have left network functionality intact since I stream from Nas and use Remote Desktop for controlling HQPlayer. Netbios is disabled though so you need to use ip-adresses to acces network resources. Can be easily re-enabled if anyone wants to. There's one issue I found, you have to click the start button 3 times or so if you want to use that, either due to disabled windows search or an apps service. I'll post the disabled service for that tomorrow or so if it bothers you. The net effect so far is ~50% less services/processes running and ~50% less memory usage: Thats it for now, Enjoy windows 10 setup guide.doc Link to comment
edbk Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 I found the service responsible for the start menu behaviour, its the DHCP Client service, or one of the 2 services depending on this one, but anyway if the start menu bothers you: Set-Service DHCP -Startuptype Automatic And reboot and all is good again Ill update the manual later, and may take the time to turn it into a .cmd or .exe Link to comment
edbk Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 If you run into trouble accessing your nas: Set-Service lmhosts -StartupType Automatic And reboot. Its a lot of hassle/work but im running this on a single pc now which sounds much better then my other dual pc server 2012 with AO and jplay setup ? so much better I'm considering not even trying a 2nd pc anymore, hmm yeah right ?

Lionelh2 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I've only done the first 14 steps and the SQ improvement was very noticeable in my system.

edbk Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Got some questions about no sound output from several applications, if you want to use the windows audiosystem through vlc, tidal, jriver etc you need to have the following 2 services running: AudioSrv AudioEndpointBuilder So either enable those in services.msc or in powershell: Set-Service AudioSrv -StartupType Automatic Set-Service AudioEndpointBuilder -StartupType Automatic Reboot Im using Jplay kernelstreaming and HQPlayer through Asio, so I dont need the windows services.. If you dont need em, disable, really sounds better ? Link to comment
edbk Posted August 10, 2015 Author Share Posted August 10, 2015 Oh also, its very easy to re-enable the services, just replace "disable" with "automatic" in the "Set-Service" lines, reboot, and you're back to before. If there's enough interest, so far there isnt, i can make enable/disable scripts, also in parts, like enable/disable sound, enable/disable eindows update etc, will take me just an evening but not doing it for just 3-4 people, sorry ?

baddog Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Very interesting. Do you also have an "undo" script available, just in case all h*ll breaks loose? And thank you! Silver Circle Audio | Roon | Devialet | Synology | Vivid Audio | Stillpoint Aperture | Auralic | DH Labs Link to comment
edbk Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 I think the answer is in the post right above yours I may make some scripts, reversing the changes is quite easy. But frankly there's not enough interest to motivate me to spend time on it, i dont need it myself ? Link to comment

But frankly there's not enough interest to motivate me to spend time on it, i dont need it myself ? edbk I am sure there are many technical novices like me who greatly appreciate your efforts - but cannot contribute. Certainly, I'll experiment with the W10 10074 copy I have downloaded, and the simpler you make your scripts, the less chance users like me could screw things up. Please keep up the effort!
