Info: You need System access and admin privileges! Solution is also to cleaning up

DriverStore/FileRepository Folder and for the extrem large WindowsUpdate.log file!  

Everyone knows the ► Regular Windows 10 Uninstall Feature but for this, you need a file manager that can be started in administrative and system privileges! For this case in Windows 10 is the Quad-File-Explorer ideal.

ATTENTION! Turn off the system rights (privileges), after processing the folder! It is not recommended to work with system privileges, because you can also delete items that should not be deleted. Or when creating new folders, other users do not have full access rights. 

3.) What is the use of deleting all APPs?


The Windows 10 is then like a desktop system and is not unnecessarily burdened by the APPs, after cleaning it is comparable to an MS Server 2019 and is a pure desktop Windows OS.

You could also take the MS Server 2019, but this is a lot more expensive than the Windows 10 Home or Pro! You can also activate the ISS here under Windows 10 and use it as a web server!   

Tip: The solution is also suitable for C:/Windows/System32/DriverStore/FileRepository !  

Deleting apps on your Windows 10 system can have several benefits:


1. Performance Improvement:

Removing pre-installed apps can free up resources and improve your system's performance. Fewer apps running in the background also means less resource usage, which can result in a faster and more responsive system.

2. Better User Experience:

A sleeker operating system without unnecessary apps can improve the user experience by allowing you to focus on the applications you're actually using instead of being distracted by pre-installed apps.

3. Improved privacy and security:

Many pre-installed apps may collect data about your activities. Removing these apps can help protect your privacy and reduce potential security risks.

4. Customization and Personalization:

By deleting unnecessary apps, you can customize your Windows 10 system to suit your needs, making it leaner and more efficient.

However, please note that some pre-installed apps may be required for the operating system to function properly. Therefore, make sure you only remove apps that you are sure you don't need. It is also recommended to backup your system before deleting apps to avoid any unwanted issues.

Enabling features like IIS (Internet Information Services) on Windows 10 allows you to use your system as a web server, which can be useful if you want to do web development or hosting. This can make your Windows 10 system more versatile, similar to a Windows Server 2019 but at a lower price point.


Cleaning the C:/Windows/System32/DriverStore/FileRepository folder can also be useful to free up space on your hard drive and keep the system tidy. This folder contains driver files necessary for your system to operate. However, it is important to be careful and ensure that you only delete unnecessary files to avoid problems.

 

4.) ... More tips for tidiness on the PC on MS Windows OS!



Order is half of life, that's how it is on all MS Windows desktop and server operating systems, it not only increases efficiency, but also ensures that working on the PC, notebook, ... or whatever is less stressful and more pleasant becomes.
