I like to use ShutUp10 for this https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10

+1 on this. It's a portable app that just gets the job done.

-25 for the fact that your OS even needs that after purchasing it.

So most of these application including SharpApp are now being effected by Microsoft's choice to prevent blocking their telemetry in the host file.

Basically, if you attempt to add any of their IPs or Domains, to the host file, when you attempt to save, windows defender prevents you from saving and claiming malware or virus.

best privacy/debloating app to me is Privatezilla. So it seems to be from the same dev. didn't know https://github.com/builtbybel/privatezilla

SharpApp appears to be his older app serving a similar purpose.

> Script files provided for Privatezilla or my older app SharpApp are fully compatible with Bloatbox. You will find some on my site here Source: https://github.com/builtbybel/bloatbox

I normally use a combination of ShutUp10 and a personal debloat script, but I will check this out.

I resent that I need to use Windows. If it wasn't for gaming sigh.

Cool app, though I note the irony of being greeted by a cookie consent form for Google analytics...
