O&O AppBuster: Bust Apps you don’t want

When setting up Windows 10, Microsoft not only installs the operating system alone, but also a whole range of additional apps – some useful, some less so. O&O AppBuster allows you to remove the unwanted apps easily and quickly. Or, if you accidentally uninstalled one of these apps, you can also retrieve them with one click.

Over a clear and concise interface, O&O AppBuster shows you which of these Microsoft-supplied apps with Windows 10 are installed on your computer and which you can install on request – even hidden apps are displayed here.

Take back control of Windows 10 again with help from O&O AppBuster!

More control over your operating system

  • Uninstall apps pre-installed by Microsoft (also the hidden Apps!)
  • Remove pre-installed third-party apps and protect your privacy
  • Reinstall accidentally deleted apps
  • Undo changes at any time by creating a system restore point

Did you notice that Microsoft, along with Windows 10, also installed a set of apps by default? Some of them make sense and are useful, but some of them are not manufactured by Microsoft, rather by third-party vendors. O&O AppBuster gives you the control back over your Windows 10 again! Now you decide which apps you want on your computer. To make it as easy as possible for you, we’ve divided the apps into categories and give you tips on which apps you can safely remove or reinstall with one click and which ones you should leave.

O&O AppBuster is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days – no crapware!

In addition, O&O has licensed parts of the Microsoft Windows operating system for use in its data recovery and data imaging programs, in order to start a computer from CD-ROM even when the computer has no functioning operating system installed.

Something I not infrequently said (not here) can't be done!

Doesn't that just refer to the Windows Preinstallation Environment (Win PE) that Microsoft offers free of charge for creation of emergency recovery media like bootable USBs and CDs?

Interesting company!
