I have Used a Windows 11 Debloater on it before I lower the processes down from 250 to 150 when I'm not doing anything. anyone got anything that could help me get a for more down?
Debloater Used: https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools
Specs for laptop: CPU - 10th Gen Intel Core i7-10750H 2.60GHz /GPU - NIVIDIA Geforece RTX 2070 (8gb) and Intel(R) UHD Graphics(1gb) and Ram two 16GB
Is there anything more that I could do the lower the Use I also disabled a lot of Startups that were not needed aswell

Don't use a debloat script, your gonna end up doing more harm than good to your pc
Why is having processes open an issue to you? This is normal operational behavior @lucid dagger

Trust me, as a highly passionate Archlinux user that hates having extra things open and more than like 800MiB of RAM used when fully booted with GUI, it really hurts to see unnecessary processes

yeah most of the debloat tools are more or less just "trust me, run my script that u downloaded off the internet" but with a gui

yeah that’s one of the reasons for why I personally don’t like Windows, as it just uses SO much of your system’s resources

the best way to get things down is to uninstall all the oem and msft bloatware, using an msi laptop rn and with everything uninstalled I got it down to 49 even with steam and discord running, (~40 while idle iirc)
the rest is stuff like intel drivers/nvidia containers/windows processes etc

Or just reinstall the OS and replace with a better one (well Linux lol, no, just kidding)

hoestly wish I could tbh, got work and university both with programs that's probs never gonna run on linux :/

I‘m actually able to daily drive linux and I‘m really angry if people try to convince me not to

i am also using an asus gaming laptop(TUF series) and the armory crate is so annoying it uses CPU resources and ram resources
I wish I could disable it
ancient root
u could just uninstall it tbh
never used the default msi tool thing either, got the laptop and immediately just did a clean reinstall of windows

I will take a look at that today thank you, can you link it?

imo unless ur actively using the utilites that the oem shipped with, just going with a clean windows install will get rid of just about everything u don't need

I stream off of the laptop as well and OBS uses the CPU and it is already being moved down from all the other windows processes

I uninstall all that I could from it and ASUS framework and Armory crate still have stuff running in the background
ancient root
yeah usually it's best to just reinstall windows

Thank you

but if u have a lot of things installed/customized already, u can try using the sysinternals tools from msft or system informer from another dev to disable or set processes to demand start

Thank you, from my understanding a new install removes everything on the laptop
Which I am trying to avoid
ancient root
yeah in that case sysinternals/sysinformer is the easier way to go
helped someone else with windows issues and wrote out much more detailed msgs there
lucid dagger
Ok thank you

Also I have been thinking about deleting Iobit AC since I have noticed that is doing really nothing.
Or am I just not noticing what it is doing
ancient root
what's iobit
oh like ccleaner
yeah honestly most of those programs just add to the bloatware
any time I get a new pc I just immediately reinstall a clean windows install from the msft media creation tool thing, avoids all of the bloatware and oem software issues and u only need to deal with windows and that's it
and that's just a one time setup thing as compared to some oem/bolatware thing where they just set themselves to reinstall via scripts or some other method and is a nightmare to get rid of

Thank you for the info I'm trying to get a Desktop and will try to remember to pretty much do anything here

Get more ram 😉

Get more ram 😉
I‘ve got 16Gigs, and it‘s not act the problem that I couldn’t just get more RAM but that barely anything‘s better than having your OS use less than 1GiB of RAM and to show that it is possible to have a perfectly usable system (for me even more usable one actually) without all the bloatware I actually never use.

I use 8gb on idle, can't do anything about it

I also use 6-8GB on idle with my Asus laptop, I have considered upgrading it before, but now that I upgraded my desktop to an RTX 3060Ti, it's kinda gone obsolete

Reinstall that OS as well... that's atrocious

So I just checked it, I'm on that laptop rn and with discord, spotify and OneDrive open, I'm using 47% of RAM at the moment. OneDrive is apparently the worst RAM hog at 7.6% lol
There are no ASUS things sucking up my RAM at the moment, it seems to be mostly because of OneDrive(7.5%), Discord (5.5%) and microsoft defender (3.5%)

Nah, I still occasionally use it, too much to get rid of it
And also, it's got the best keyboard I have. I can get the fastest on it and it's not deafeningly loud as the dell e-waste keyboard that came with my jet-engine Dell G5 5090

The first ASUS program in the task manager sorted by RAM usage descending is Armory crate service with just 0.8%

On the 2-in-1 for school, I use 9GB rn with Discord, one Edge tab, Teams and OneNote open. It has 32GB of RAM as well as your laptop
