Hi all, I saw a Reddit post where someone broke down the perfect way to clean install Windows 11, removing all the pre-installed bloatware that usually comes with OEM laptops.

The key steps they mentioned were creating a bootable USB via the Media Creation Tool, disabling internet during setup to prevent forced Microsoft account logins, and installing all drivers manually afterward. Some users even shared scripts to remove telemetry and optimize performance.

Has anyone else followed this method? I’m planning to reset my system and want a fresh start with max efficiency.
