Are there any actual free programs that clean up all bloat ware on a new laptop? Without them putting hidden stuff in?

You're viewing a single thread.
Honestly? Easiest method is to do a fresh install. I use Windows LTSC which essentially skips all the bloat and spyware in consumer versions of Windows.
If a fresh reinstall isn't viable, there's a collection of batch scripts someone built a while ago called Tron (it fights for the user!). It does a lot of diagnostics, repair, debloat, and optimization, but takes a long time to run.
Tron comes with a huge caveat: make sure you know what you're doing, and don't run it blindly.
I got the laptop less than a week ago was basically asking just to make sure i got at least 90 percent of the stuff but wanted to make sure.
