How I Set Up a Clean Laptop

How to set up a laptop. Keeping a clean and simple desktop Formatting/Fresh Install: - I do the install in offline mode (without internet) so I don’t have to log in with a Microsoft account. - I turn off Cortana, history and disable all the Microsoft fluff. Apps: - I remove every app I can except for Media Codecs (for video editing) - Don’t remove Cortana, MS Store, or Windows defender with 3rd party apps. That’ll break stuff. - I use to get an installer package. It’s clean and free of malware/bloatare - I don’t bother with 3rd party virus Apps. Most of them are awful. Centering Taskbar: - I turn off the search bar, Cortana and the task view buttons. - When you center the app icons, keep in mind that open apps will add to the tail end of it. Rainmeter: () - The skin I use is Mond. And I use my own font with it. - The ones with heavy animations tend to use a ton of resources. Avoid those if you need to keep it light.
