🗑️ 5. Remove Microsoft Bloatware

No more Xbox, Bing, Weather, Edge, or 3D Viewer clutter.

$appList = @("Microsoft.BingWeather", ..., "Microsoft.MSPaint")
foreach ($app in $appList) {
    Get-AppxPackage -Name $app -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
}

🐉 6. Install Kali Linux on WSL

SecOps starts with a proper distro. This script installs Kali from official Microsoft URL.

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://aka.ms/wsl-kali-linux-new -OutFile "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\kali.appx"
Add-AppxPackage -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\kali.appx"

Then sets Kali as default distro for WSL2.

⚡ 7. Power Tweaks for Pros

• Show hidden files and file extensions
• Enable Windows Terminal v2
• Create “God Mode” folder for full system control

Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\...\Explorer\Advanced" -Name Hidden -Value 1
New-Item -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\Desktop\GodMode.{ED7BA470...}" -ItemType Directory -Force
