A developer named buildbybel on GitHub created a new tool named This is Windows 11 (TIW11). According to the developer, this new tool software is a bit like a one-stop shop for personalizing your Windows 11 experience. In fact, in the about part of the software, the developer even touted TIW11 as the real PowerToys of Windows 11.
For example, you will be able to uninstall some applications pre-installed in Windows 11. Although some users do take advantage of these features, others may not. For them, these applications may be just bloated software. Various other Windows 11 settings can also be adjusted, as shown in the following figure:
It is recommended that you delete the existing Packages folder before applying the changes in TIW11 to avoid conflicts in the form of duplicate files. Of course, it is always safe to keep a backup. The Packages folder contains files for Windows applications installed on the user profile. You can find it in C:/Users/% username%/AppData/Local/Packages. These settings are generally hidden, so you may have to unhide the display to find them.
In order to enable these functions, the ThisIsWin11 application is composed of five modules according to its design:
- Presenter: The start screen guides you through pictures to introduce the new operating system Windows 11 and allows you to quickly configure it.
- PumpedApp: This module allows you to check and optimize the configuration of Windows 11, and other things (all changes made can also be undone).
- Kickassbloat: This Will help you delete pre-installed Windows 11 applications.
- Packages: This allows you to quickly install one or another application.
- PowerClicks: This allows you to automate several Windows 11 tasks based on PowerShell and community scripts.
If you want to try the ThisIsWin11 tool yourself, you can go to the GitHub page to check the latest version 0.70.0. But please note that this is an unofficial third-party application and it may disrupt the system. Therefore, the risk of installation needs to be borne by yourself.
