  • File Lenovo-PC-DeBloat.ps1 — part of check-in [6dad557c3c] at 2018-06-10 14:12:14 on branch trunk — This script is intended for use on Lenovo laptops with an OEM installation of Windows. The script will remove Lenovo-installed bloatware and unnecessary software. It has been tested on a variety of hardware, however, in its current form it is not complete. I have left some notes at the bottom for additional software that may potentially need to be removed. (user: AlphaSun size: 4173)
