How to debloat Windows 11 from junk apps

In Windows 11 users can use a tool known as “JunkCtrl” that makes it easier to debloat Windows 11 quickly.

The term “debloat” refers to the process of removing those unnecessary apps and services from Windows 11 that you may not find necessary, invasive, or otherwise would be wasting system resources. Debloating can help to improve performance, increase battery life, reduce security risks, and increase privacy.

Unfortunately, even if you do a clean installation, Windows 11 still comes with a bunch of software and services that may continuously run in the background, wasting system resources and battery life and collecting usage data (telemetry) without an option to turn them off.

Luckily for those users, the tool “JunkCtrl” is available through GitHub, and it’s a simple piece of software to uninstall many components, including those not available through the “Installed apps” settings page.
