Windows 11 users tackle bloatware to enhance performance and free up space

Many new Windows 11 installations come with unwanted software, often referred to as bloatware. This includes trial versions of security programs and other applications that users may not need. Users are encouraged to manually remove these programs to improve system performance and free up storage space. To assist in this process, users can utilize built-in Windows tools or third-party applications. Tools like O&O Appbuster and IObit Uninstaller can help automate the removal of unwanted software. Users should create backups before making significant changes to avoid potential data loss. A new option, Tiny 11, offers a minimal version of Windows 11 that eliminates many unnecessary applications and reduces system requirements. This version is designed for devices that struggle with the standard Windows 11 installation.
