Windows 11 introduces a range of pre-installed elements, commonly known as bloatware, spanning applications, promotional content, and tailored suggestions. Though aimed at enriching user interaction, these inclusions can potentially impede system speed and storage capacity.
Fortunately, utilizing registry editing in Windows 11 offers a solution. By modifying certain registry entries, users can effectively remove these consumer-oriented features, resulting in a streamlined digital environment tailored to personal needs and professional focus.
