We found many tutorials online about how to disable various Windows 10 features that come pre-installed and enabled by default, which, especially on devices with more limited hardware, can become a real headache. Windows 10 is gradually stabilizing, but in the meantime, many users are hesitant about its new features and automatic functions. We've compiled a file that allows you to easily disable telemetry, automatic updates, Windows Defender, pre-installed applications, and more . Read on to learn how to remove these features in one fell swoop, so quickly you won't believe it.
The file we're going to provide you with is a text file called "deactivate.txt" created by a user on a popular Spanish-language forum. The first step after downloading the file is to copy its contents and create a new text file (using Notepad). Use the "save as" option and name it "deactivate.bat".
Once created, simply run it by double-clicking the file. We recommend saving it to your desktop so you don't lose it among your documents. When you run it, a pop-up window will appear asking you to disable each of the aforementioned functions. Simply select the functions you want to disable. If you don't want to disable a function, press N + Enter.
It's just as easy in reverse. If you've used this file before and now want to restore these functions, use the file below. The steps are exactly the same, but save the text file as "activate.bat" instead of the name you used previously. Quick and easy.
