DeBloat Fresh Windows 10 for Corporate
When you get Windows 10 Pre installed on New PC a lot of non used apps
This is a great tool

For 3rd party apps
But for MS apps I use this script.
Open a ADMIN Power shell
and Paste in between the lines.

# Description:
# This script removes unwanted Apps that come with Windows. If you do not want
# to remove certain Apps comment out the corresponding lines below.
Import-Module -DisableNameChecking $PSScriptRoot\..\lib\take-own.psm1
Import-Module -DisableNameChecking $PSScriptRoot\..\lib\force-mkdir.psm1
