无论是 Windows 10 还是 11，英国媒体报道(bloatware)软件对于用户来说仍然是一个持久且令人恼火的问题。这些应用程序使用不必要的进程拖累您的计算机，会严重影响性能，尤其是在低端系统上。
但是删除它们可能很棘手。其中许多应用程序不附带卸载程序，在许多情况下甚至没有突出显示。如何从计算机中找到并删除英国媒体报道软件？让我们来了解一下。
什么是英国媒体报道？
一般来说，英国媒体报道软件一词用于表示计算机（甚至电话）上无用的应用程序。它们通常是预先安装的，由您的操作系统本身捆绑。有时，这些也可能是用户意外安装的。
这些应用程序使存储变得混乱，占用了可用于更好目的的不必要的磁盘空间。更糟糕的是，其中一些在启动时运行，增加了 PC 的启动时间，并在使用过程中通过消耗内存和处理能力而减慢它的速度。
为确保您的计算机能够尽可能流畅地运行，强烈建议您删除所有此类无关的应用程序。删除英国媒体报道是加快 PC 速度和减少系统负载的最简单方法之一。
1.从开始菜单卸载
调出“开始”菜单(Start Menu)会展开您不记得安装的游戏和应用程序的完整列表。在Windows 11上，其中一些实际上并不存在，而是在单击时安装，但在Windows 10上没有这样的舒适度。
那么如何删除这些应用程序呢？
- 实际上，这很简单。只需右键单击图标（或在Windows 10中的磁贴）并选择卸载。(Uninstall.)
- 将弹出一个小窗口，提示您确认您的决定。再次点击卸载以删除应用程序。(Uninstall)
2. 添加或删除程序
并非所有英国媒体报道软件都显示在“开始”菜单(Start Menu)上。还有许多其他同样无用的应用程序隐藏在您计算机的某个目录中。您可以使用内置实用程序，而不是尝试手动跟踪它们。
添加或删除程序(Add or Remove Programs )是一个控制面板(Control Panel)工具，顾名思义，它允许您安装和卸载应用程序。这是找到计算机上所有应用程序并将其删除(and remove them)的最佳方法。
在Windows 11中，它已被折叠到设置的应用程序(Apps )选项卡中，(Settings, )尽管它的工作方式完全相同。有趣(Interestingly)的是，您仍然可以在控制面板(Control Panel)中找到旧界面，并从中删除程序。
- 在Windows 10和 11 上，您都可以通过在“开始”菜单(Start Menu)中搜索“添加或删除程序(Add or Remove Programs)”来找到它。您还可以直接导航到该实用程序，方法是前往控制面板(Control Panel)并选择卸载程序(Uninstall a Program)。（请注意，虽然此方法也适用于Windows 11，但该工具的较新版本位于Settings > Apps > Apps & Features中）。
- 您将看到计算机上安装的所有应用程序的列表，按字母顺序排列。您可以搜索特定的应用程序，或使用不同的排序和过滤条件来缩小列表范围。
- 右键单击(Right-Click)要删除的应用程序（在Windows 11中，单击三点菜单）并选择卸载。(Uninstall.)
- 根据帐户权限，系统可能会提示您允许该工具对您的计算机进行更改。点击是(Yes)继续。
- 该实用程序现在将运行所选应用程序的专用卸载程序 - 如果有的话。否则，您将看到一个通用的Windows 卸载向导(Windows Uninstallation Wizard)完成这项工作。
就是这样。您可以像这样一次一个地删除此窗口中列出的程序。您还可以查看名称旁边列出的每个应用程序的大小，从而判断最糟糕的英国媒体报道软件并相应地确定优先级。
3. 使用 PowerShell
到目前为止，我们已经研究了删除第三方应用程序的方法。但是与Windows本身捆绑在一起的游戏和应用程序呢？此类应用程序无法直接从“开始”菜单(Start Menu)或“控制面板(Control Panel)”中卸载。
要删除此类程序，您需要使用PowerShell。
PowerShell是一个命令行实用程序，可让您通过脚本自动执行任务和管理计算机。它基本上充当命令提示符(Command Prompt)的现代、更强大的版本。使用PowerShell命令，您甚至可以禁用或删除通常无法删除的Microsoft应用程序。(Microsoft)
- 要打开PowerShell，只需在开始菜单(Start Menu)中搜索即可。
- 确保以管理员身份运行，(Run as Administrator)因为许多命令需要管理员权限才能工作。将打开一个新的PowerShell终端。
- 删除受保护应用程序的最简单命令是Remove-AppxPackage。不幸的是，它只隐藏了指定的应用程序，而不是删除它。
- 要真正删除应用程序，我们首先需要获取它们的完整包名。使用DISM /Online /Get-ProvisionedAppxPackages | select-string Packagename 命令获取计算机上所有活动包的列表。
- 虽然名称可能看起来是一堆乱码，但请注意前几个单词以确定真实姓名。Simple Solitaire、BingNews等是我们所知道的应用程序的名称。暂时复制您要删除的应用程序的包名称并将它们粘贴到记事本文件中。
- 现在我们使用命令DISM /Online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:PackageName, 其中PackageName应替换为您在上一步中复制的包的实际名称。这将从您的计算机中删除该应用程序，并防止它再次自动安装。
如果所有这些命令对您来说似乎有点太复杂，这里有一个简短的解释。基本上，有一个名为DISM（部署映像服务(Deployment Imaging Service)和管理(Management)）的服务负责下载和更新核心实用程序和应用程序。使用这些命令，您只需从此列表中删除应用程序，使其不再由Windows更新。
4.通过自动化脚本
虽然PowerShell命令确实很强大，但对于普通用户来说，它们可能有点过于技术化并且难以使用。如果有一个应用程序可以自动执行相同的操作，那不是很好吗？
原来，有。Windows10Debloater是一个漂亮的小免费工具，可以彻底删除计算机中的过时软件，包括您无法直接卸载的受保护的Microsoft应用程序。(Microsoft)它通过类似于我们在上一节中讨论的那些PowerShell命令来执行此操作，而无需您自己编写一行(PowerShell)PowerShell脚本。
- 像许多社区管理的工具一样，Windows10Debloater作为 Github 存储(Github)库托管。
- 要下载该实用程序，请使用绿色代码(Code)按钮并选择下载 ZIP(Download ZIP)。这会将整个包作为 zip 文件下载到您的计算机。
- 提取下载的文件以获取一堆文件和文件夹，包括三个可用于运行该工具的PowerShell脚本。(PowerShell)
- 每一个都是不同版本的Windows10Debloater。由于GUI版本最容易使用，因此右键单击Windows10DebloaterGUI并选择Run with PowerShell。
- 将打开一个PowerShell终端，以及一个代表应用程序的新GUI窗口。(GUI)只需(Just)点击REMOVE ALL BLOATWARE按钮即可从您的计算机中删除所有不必要的应用程序。
你完成了。一系列命令将在PowerShell终端中运行，执行必要的任务。它们都不需要任何用户输入，并且该过程将在您不知不觉中完成。
这使得Windows10Debloater即使对于普通用户来说也是一个出色的工具，因为它不需要任何技术知识即可使用。您甚至可以使用它卸载OneDrive等(OneDrive)Windows组件或从“开始”菜单(Start Menu)中取消固定磁贴，而无需编写任何代码。
为什么需要从 PC 中删除英国媒体报道软件(Bloatware)？
如果您的 PC 需要很长时间才能启动或运行速度不如以前，那么罪魁祸首可能是英国媒体报道软件。不必要的应用程序是任何计算机的祸根，因为它们在不提供任何实用程序的情况下占用了关键的系统资源。
因此，始终建议从Windows中删除 bloatware 。您可以从“开始”菜单(Start Menu)或“应用程序(Apps)和功能(Features)”面板手动卸载此类应用程序，甚至可以使用PowerShell命令来处理更讨厌的应用程序。您也可以在它们运行时终止这些进程，但建议完全删除它们。(kill these processes)
如果这听起来太乏味，你总是可以使用像Windows10Debloater这样的自动化工具来为你完成这项工作。它使用PowerShell脚本清理您的 PC，删除所有垃圾应用程序和英国媒体报道，同时保留重要部分不变。在全新的Windows(Windows)安装后运行一次该工具是保持系统快速且无负担的好方法。
4 Easy Ways to Remove Bloatware from Windows 10/11
Be it Windows 10 or 11, bloatware remains a persistent and irritating problem for users. Dragging down your computer with their unnecessary processes, these applications can seriously impact performance, especially on low-end systems.
But removing them can be tricky. Many of these apps don’t come with uninstallers, and in many cases are even not displayed prominently. How can you find and remove bloatware from your computer? Let’s find out.
What Is Bloatware?
Generally speaking, the term bloatware is used to denote useless applications on your computer (or even a phone). They usually come pre-installed, bundled by your operating system itself. Sometimes, these might also be accidentally installed by the user.
These apps clutter up the storage, taking up unnecessary disk space that could be used for better purposes. Worse, some of these run on startup, increasing the boot time of your PC and slowing it down during usage by eating up memory and processing power.
To ensure that your computer can function as smoothly as possible, it is highly recommended to remove all of such extraneous applications. Deleting bloatware is one of the easiest ways to speed up your PC and reduce system load.
1. Uninstall From the Start Menu
Bringing up the Start Menu unfolds a whole list of games and apps you don’t remember installing. On Windows 11, some of these aren’t actually present but are installed when clicked, but on Windows 10 there is no such comfort.
So how do you remove these apps?
- It’s pretty simple, actually. Just right-click on the icon (or the tile, in Windows 10) and select Uninstall.
- A small window will pop up, prompting you to confirm your decision. Hit Uninstall once again to delete the application.
2. Add or Remove Programs
Not all bloatware shows up on the Start Menu. There are many other equally useless applications that are hidden in some directory of your computer. Instead of trying to track them down manually, you can use the built-in utility for it.
Add or Remove Programs is a Control Panel tool that, as the name suggests, allows you to install and uninstall applications. It is the best way to locate all the apps present on your computer, and remove them.
In Windows 11, it has been folded into the Apps tab of the Settings, though it works exactly the same way. Interestingly enough, you can still find the old interface in the Control Panel, and remove programs from there as well.
- On both Windows 10 and 11, you can find it by searching for Add or Remove Programs in the Start Menu. You can also navigate to the utility directly, by heading to the Control Panel and selecting Uninstall a Program. (Note that while this approach works in Windows 11 too, the newer version of the tool is located in Settings > Apps > Apps & Features).
- You will see a list of all the applications installed on your computer, sorted alphabetically. You can search for specific apps, or use different sorting and filtering criteria to narrow down the list.
- Right-Click on the app that you wish to remove (in Windows 11, click on the three-dot menu) and select Uninstall.
- Depending on account permissions, you may be prompted to allow the tool to make changes to your computer. Hit Yes to proceed.
- The utility will now run the selected application’s dedicated uninstaller – if it has one. Otherwise, you will see a generic Windows Uninstallation Wizard do the job.
And that’s it. You can keep removing programs listed in this window like this, one at a time. You can also view the size of each app listed alongside the name, allowing you to judge the worst bloatware and prioritize accordingly.
3. With the PowerShell
So far we have looked into methods to delete third-party apps. But what about games and applications that are bundled with Windows itself? Such apps cannot be uninstalled directly, either from the Start Menu or from the Control Panel.
To remove such programs, you need to use PowerShell.
PowerShell is a command-line utility that allows you to automate tasks and manage your computer through scripts. It basically acts as a modern, more powerful version of the Command Prompt. Using PowerShell commands, you can disable or remove even Microsoft applications that are normally impossible to delete.
- To open PowerShell, just search for it in the Start Menu.
- Make sure you Run as Administrator because many commands require administrator privileges to work. A fresh PowerShell terminal will open.
- The simplest command you can use to get rid of a protected app is the Remove-AppxPackage. Unfortunately, it only hides the specified app, instead of deleting it.
- To actually delete the apps, we first need to get their full package names. Use the DISM /Online /Get-ProvisionedAppxPackages | select-string Packagename command to obtain a list of all the active packages on your computer.
- While the names might appear to be a bunch of gibberish, pay attention to the first few words to determine the real names. Simple Solitaire, BingNews, etc. are the names of the apps as we know them. Copy the package names of the apps you wish to remove and paste them into a notepad file for now.
- Now we use the command DISM /Online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:PackageName, where PackageName should be replaced with the actual name of the package you copied in the last step. This will remove the app from your computer, as well as preventing it from automatically installing again.
If all of these commands seem a bit too complicated to you, here is a brief explanation. Basically, there is a service called DISM (Deployment Imaging Service and Management) that is responsible for downloading and updating core utilities and applications. With these commands, you are simply removing the apps from this list, so that it’s no longer updated by Windows.
4. Through an Automated Script
While PowerShell commands are certainly powerful, they can be a bit too technical and difficult to use for a casual user. Wouldn’t it be great if there was an app to do the same thing automatically?
Turns out, there is. Windows10Debloater is a nifty little free tool that can thoroughly remove bloatware from your computer, including protected Microsoft apps you cannot uninstall directly. It does so through PowerShell commands similar to the ones we discussed in the previous section, without you having to write a single line of PowerShell script yourself.
- Like many community-managed tools, the Windows10Debloater is hosted as a Github repo.
- To download the utility, use the green Code button and select Download ZIP. This will download the whole package as a zip file to your computer.
- Extract the downloaded file to get a bunch of files and folders, including three PowerShell scripts that can be used to run the tool.
- Each of these is a different version of Windows10Debloater. Since the GUI version is the easiest to work with, right-click on Windows10DebloaterGUI and select Run with PowerShell.
- A PowerShell terminal will open, coupled with a new GUI window representing the application. Just hit the REMOVE ALL BLOATWARE button to delete all unnecessary applications from your computer.
And you are done. A series of commands will run in the PowerShell terminal, carrying out the necessary tasks. None of them need any user input, and the process will be completed before you know it.
This makes Windows10Debloater an excellent tool even for casual users, as it requires no technical knowledge to use. You can even use it to uninstall Windows components like OneDrive or unpin tiles from the Start Menu, all without writing any code.
Why Do You Need to Remove Bloatware From Your PC?
If your PC takes a long while to boot up or isn’t running as fast as it used to, the culprit might be bloatware. Unnecessary applications are the bane of any computer, as they take up critical system resources without providing any utility.
For this reason, it is always recommended to remove bloatware from Windows. You can manually uninstall such apps from the Start Menu or the Apps & Features panel, or even use PowerShell commands for the peskier ones. You can also kill these processes while they are running, though it is advisable to remove them altogether.
In case that sounds too tedious, you can always use an automated tool like Windows10Debloater to do the job for you. It uses PowerShell scripts to clean up your PC, removing all junk applications and bloatware while leaving the important parts untouched. Running the tool once after a fresh Windows install is a great way to keep your system fast and unburdened.
