    Hey All, I remember seeing a link to a bloatware removal tool in the Lounge previously, but for the life of me I can't find it. Could someone point me in the right direction? As I remember it was freeware and removed something like 200+ standard trialware/bloatware installs.

                      Or how about FDISK? :mad: That should be still pretty fast saving even CPU horsepowers required for showing the 'Format/Quick Format' progress bars. Wouldn't that be a better deal for you? :-D

                              We do that every few years at the office for laughs and it's AMAZING how fast it is.
