You made the dream tool literally. Everything any windows user need is here and it's so easy, straight forward and above all free. I've been using this since release and I just love it. Thank you Chris and everyone who helped making this amazing tool.

[@LangeloScuro]

Your tool is beyond awesome. I'm not just saying that because of my own experience with it, but rather all the IT people I know and have shared this with. The number of dropped jaws continue to grow, just like your tool does. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your effort as well as all those that contribute to its growth.

[@vicky180266]

Hollo Chris, as one of those who has been using your tool since the beginning, I love you and everyone working on this wonderful project! This is proof that a fantastic piece of software in an open source environment can work wonders! To everyone who is working on this with you, I remain with kind regards from Hamburg (Germany) Victor Martins

[@Apol61]

Thanks, great job!

[@prfrag]

This project has been amazing!! Keep up the good work!!

[@TulioPontacoloni]

The fact that you've practically incorporated RUFUS - like an even more capable version of this - is nuts. I didn't see this coming so quickly.

[@egokhanturk]

If you use Ventoy, you won't need Rufus.

[@FlyboyHelosim]

@@egokhanturk Wrong. Rufus is still superior for fussy ISO files and PCs.

[@egokhanturk]

@@FlyboyHelosim nope. Ventoy is enough for everything

[@FlyboyHelosim]

@@egokhanturk Nope. I've run into multiple issues with it using certain ISO images on certain systems. You simply cannot state that as fact when you've only used a small sample size yourself.

[@sargetyu]

Ventoy is not good it causes endless issues with usb flash drives

[@DeadAmericanBestAmerican]

The microwin part could have an advanced mode where you manually select every process and app you want to delete, with descriptions just like the install tab

[@eriksiers]

I'd like to see that.

[@mranderson2048]

If you ever used NTLite before, you'll know how many options can be customized. Just from a purely "size" stanpoint, the feature you're suggesting is likely beyond the scope of this project. If you want such fine-tuned control, in my opinion, it's better to use dedicated tools like NTLite instead.

[@ilhamjones2414]

every time i use windows mod, the more i realize that this is what i need. i love to use this tool on every system that i have. thank you chris and contributor.

[@sumitshukla6489]

Man! You are doing something that saves people time. The most important thing. God bless you man

[@GavAttackO]

I recently used this when reinstalling Windows 11 on a friend's laptop. It saved alot of time and helped speed things up by providing fixes to disable stuff that is unnecessary for that person.

[@agustincorvalan5722]

Thank you so much Chris. Your tool became an essential step after a new windows install. Can't thank you enough, and thanks to all the people who collab with this project too! Have a great day.

[@handsomehobo6434]

Love the new update. Went into the utility to change the update settings for a new-to-me laptop, and boom! Just adding the “get “ items to quickly see what is installed and what tweaks have been made, amazing. I ain’t one of you crazy folks, but I have four pcs between my wife and I, and being a tinkerer I’m always trying new things. This is such a nice multitool. Much appreciated!

[@Nebula6301]

I've been using your Utility ever since it was just one simple window with a tweaks button it has evolved so much u should be so proud Love your channel

[@BrentM11]

It is AMAZING!! I was introduced to your tool and channel this week and my gosh it is a GAME CHANGER. In fact I'm running it right now on a machine.

[@PhoeniXfromNL]

looks fantastic Chris, Thanks, and also thanks to all the contributors of course ^^

[@simonfredkellyyt]

So much gratitude Chris and all the people behind this project for all the amazing work you all do to keep improving and updating this FANTASTIC tool. I always recommend this to all the people I know that are using Windows. Many blessings, Max 🙏

[@TulioPontacoloni]

Ridiculous dedication all. Bravo!

[@TheHermit]

Fantastic work Chris et al. I'm not sure how long I've been following your channel for, but it must be 4-5 years now. Even in its early development I found your utility to be a godsend, using it as part of the setup up process for fresh installs/builds for friends and family. Keep up the great work!

[@benchosei9878]

Huge update! Major kudos to you, Chris, and the other contributors as well! This tool has helped me many times!

[@renderedpixels4300]

I've used this on every new install of windows I make. It's AMAZING! Thank you so much Chris!

[@maddscientist82]

Chris, this is obviously an amazing tool and I see even more potential in it! One thing I thought of to add, if i may suggest, is along the vein of understanding more about any one particular tweak and what it does/is: if you middle click the link to it will open a webpage with more information about it. Not like the 'product store' page, but even something like googles some keywords that bring up results on what that tweak does and why its important. I know that sounds lazy but I think it would be a simple QoL thing. Anyway, thanks and keep up the great work!

How could I not pay for this. Quality program that's actually really useful.

[@JR-uy2nd]

This toll makes windows 100x better. Probably the best windows software ever made.

[@longjohn526]

I've used this script to set up 4 systems in the last couple of years and it worked flawless because it doesn't go overboard like many other "tweak scripts/programs". And every time I use it it just keeps getting better. When I do a fresh install this is the first thing I go to after installing drivers. Absolutely brilliant

[@pedroparker194]

You are literally the creator of the better windows that could ever exist. Thanks for everything, we all appreciate with our life the hard work you and your team had put on this project.

[@Adrio999]

Thank you for this amazing tool! I am using it all the time for maintaining the machines at home and when helping friends - you made my life easier and made me look even cooler in front of my friends :D Made setting up new Windows installation so much easier and even fun! And every time I use it again it is even better than before... Not to mention the ton of new open-source software I learned about...

[@djunkv7]

This tool is very much needed for schools. New PCs and laptops are loaded with Win11 and all types of bloatware that slow down the system where opening a simple word document or PDF can take 10-15 seconds. This tool makes Win10/11 more usable! I've been clinging to Win7 because of all those nasty Win11 issues. Now I can finally install Win11 as my daily driver. Thanks Chris...

[@_Karoleiro]

Chris I follow you years, thanks for all those goods you give us instantly !

[@RobsonLuizRL]

Congratulations, Chris! for all the work you have done on this incredible tool. One question, how can I get the Windows calendar to work again? When I used the tool, I disabled notifications and the calendar, I would like to enable it again.

[@ChrisTitusTech]

Clear all selections on the Tweak page, then check disable notifiations/calendar and click undo

[@Vaprium]

​@@ChrisTitusTech After i did the recommended tweaks, when i go into the location settings it says managed by your organization. Should i be concerned about this or should i ignore it. If it needs to be fixed how?

[@ShrimpAbuser]

I've used this tool over 100 times in the last 12 months. Super handy, thanks a lot!

[@C0nnie]

This may be a little off topic, but the last time I installed windows on my m.2, it went completely fine. However, I discover the Boot Partition is on my super old HDD, meaning windows won’t boot without that old one plugged in. Is there any saving this ?

[@MeyriChannel]

Chris, thank you so much, your amazing tools is a life safer. My win 10 was very laggy that I punched my desk many times cuz it was not responding. Then, after I tweak it, it become like swoosh, so fast ! Like bro I should have known this tool long time ago! Such a gem! It doesn't need decade to open programs anymore, it also respons quickly. I wish many good things come to you Chris!

[@BlacklistedBible]

🌀I used this utility and installed a bunch of programs on a fresh installed windows 10. Cursor hourglass ran continually after using the utility and never stopped😬! This has happened before on another PC. I found a way to stop the hour glass but I'm reinstalling Window because I wonder what other problems will creep up.

[@gordonfreimann]

hi Chris, I am currently building a new pc with 14700k and rtx 4090. Would you recommend windows 11 for this pc or windows 10? I never liked w11 but some people say 14th gen intel works best with w11, is that correct?

Hi, There is one problem in Win utility tool. Have you noticed the items in context menu showing abruptly instead of taking a second to show? Click on right context menu and hover over view or sort by you will notice the items are showing very quickly. It breaks the visual design point of Windows. Do you face the same issue too?

[@xreyuk]

Unfortunately for me after running the tweaks, this doesn't seem to actually reduce any running processes which is weird. I've also noticed a lot of the changes don't seem to be surviving a reboot despite being run in admin.

[@radui7468]

Great tool man. Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work. I don't think there is an equivalent out there. I would like to contribute, but I'm not good at windows stuff.

[@Pharesm]

I paid Titus $10 for his tool. And when his method to avoid Microsoft's auto-delete upon unzipping failed, he couldn't be bothered to provide a way that actually worked. On the contrary, he never answered.

[@ChrisTitusTech]

Here is how you can exclude the exe from being blocked by Microsoft's Defender: - Select Start , then open Settings . Under Privacy & security , select Virus & threat protection. - Under Virus & threat protection settings, select Manage settings, and then under Exclusions, select Add or remove exclusions. - Select Add an exclusion, and then select from files, folders, file types, or process. A folder exclusion will apply to all subfolders within the folder as well. If you are using a different Anti-virus you will have to research how to exclude the executable for that program. All antivirus program block Powershell scripts that modify your system and why it gets flagged. All source can be reviewed directly on GitHub if you are concerned.

[@MrHawky-sc6lo]

First of all like he stated in the video the script is free you didn't have to pay 10$ if you didn't want to. Its a free script.. also if you can't figure out how to stop windows defender from deleting a false positive you probably shouldn't be using this tool at all or at the very least complaining about it.

[@vexnity460]

on the contrary should be used when ur providing contrast not providing additional info

[@vexnity460]

​@@MrHawky-sc6loikr? a simple Google search shows u how to exclude it from defender

[@Pharesm]

@@ChrisTitusTech Thanks, will try that...

[@tomerpintel6292]

Nice tool. I'm currently moving from windows 10 to 11 on a new machine. The thing that takes the longest is trying to preserve my previous settings in all the programs. Would be great if I could "export" all the settings in the software you support from the old computer, and "import" them after the installation in the new one. Maybe even add create a way to add export/import to other software as well. Just to give some of the more complex examples: Visual Studio extensions, Notepad++ extensions, settings in registry, settings in AppData, hosts file, and so on...

[@blees1ng]

[@andreiguzovski7774]

"...it doesn't install on your machine at all..." well that's kind of a lie, it install chocolatey, which personally I don't use. It would be nice to include optional chocolatey install and shadow out software options which are not supported by winget. Well, maybe I will come around to contribute myself.

[@sleekspeed22]

Chris, so excited so see what else you and others add. Love it.

[@roberthoover8807]

Unser tweaks, It would be great if we could have the tool provide a list of ms apps installed and the ability to select all and then uncheck boxes to keep the ones we want as opposed to only having the option of removing all the ms store apps.

[@alphabusinesscommunicatiio3733]

I am paid for my geek skills, This tool has saved me hours of effort in the last two year, Cheers to Chris and the rest of the contributors.

[@slctdmbntwrx]

The only stuff I really do extra that this tool doesn't is Harden Tools for extra protection, O&O shutup for more fine adjustment, bloatynosy for debloat/tweaks and Pure Dark Theme tool to get a nice all black desktop, not sure if those tweaks could be added but it'd be like installing windows through an iso made from the app, and auto configured via the app which would be pretty sweet.

[@kulamshmenim]

It would be really cool in my opinion if you could integrate the selected applications with MicroWin , I mean that all the selected applications will be automatically installed on the system that is created from the MicroWin ISO

[@GLASSxCUTS]

[@JumperTheHero]

Chris, I have been watching your work for a bit with this script and I am so impressed with what you have done. I think it would be so awesome if you could create a script for at least Ubuntu/Debian systems. That would be a game changer to have a gui package manager (that's actually good) on Linux. I know I am definitely probably saying that a bit early considering you just started this one, but I mainly was just sprinklin in my thoughts! I do genuinely already use this script for my work laptop and even for our clients. So I am really just looking forward to what you are doing man! Keep it up!
