I've had a number of friends who have had to do reinstalls after running these kinds of scripts. Easy to break lots of subtle things.

Yeah, my first Windows 10 install I did a lot of the things in this script (disable Cortana, Bing search, P2P updates, etc.) and my machine worked fine... for a time. Things slowly started to go REALLY downhill, to the point where I couldn't search the start menu and had to find the .exe for any application I wanted to open, I couldn't view any images with the default image viewer, the file explorer barely worked, and a whole bunch of other weird things.

Eventually I gave up, reformatted the drive it was installed on, and re-installed. Everything's been pretty much fine since then.

It's editable. There's a lot of stuff in there I had to remove. I still want Store functionality because I like the look and feel of the apps on there, especially the Twitter client.

The login screen where you input you password, or the lockscreen where you have to press spacebar to "slide up" the image to get to the login screen? For some reason Windows 10 has both even on desktop.

Disabling the lock screen was about the only thing I wasn't sure about, I'd be pretty happy with the rest. Any idea why you would want the lock screen disabled?

No it doesn't. At least on Anniversary Update but is anyone else running an earlier version of Windows?

The NoLockScreen hack does not work in Anniversary Update. It's even described in the gist and the Anniversary workaround is commented out.

> but is anyone else running an earlier version of Windows?

Anyone who has one of the new netbooks that have 32 GB drives, because it's hard to get 16 GB free to install the update.
