Agree.
For faster boot times, having the HDD as the first bootable device In the BIOS may also help. This way, the PC doesn't check for peripherals on boot up (example, USB devices, optical drive).

If you disable visual style settings in windows 10 your GUI barely changes but it does make your Windows faster. Most of the settings are just useless animations. They look nice but serve no purpose.
Also you can put as much in a thread as you wany, to properly format the thread you can also use spoilers.

Thanks for letting me know
I guess one thing I've learned from here is to prepare before making a thread.
Within a month I'll re-make this thread but better looking and more tips & tricks. Again, thanks guys.

sounds too basic, https://www.bleachbit.org/ is the advanced version of ccleaner, has more options too, just note that if you select "free disk space" the that could take hours (made the mistake of selecting them all) lol

Given you've grave dug this thread and It's now active once again, I'll post my thoughts.
Removing all OEM bloatware from my main Predator was the best decision I've made. After a clean Install with my copy of Windows, I'm now experiencing faster boot and shutdown times, less resource-hungry apps and better overall functionality. Be aware though, If It's a new PC still under warranty, doing so may In fact nullify It.
