Changelog

Here's a small but crucial update that further optimizes ad blocking in Windows 11. I'm aiming to make this feature more dynamic, akin to a browser ad blocker 😸

Also, be sure to check out the changes from yesterday's release.

  • Winpilots and Clippy (NeoClippy) have shifted their focus towards even stricter debloating and disabling of undesired Microsoft features aligning with the approach found in the Windows 11 OOBE. Any features not enabled during the initial setup can be adjusted later in Winpilots' setup area.
  • The Workspace offers four different startup options (see screenshot)
  • Support for the Tiny11Builder has also been added as a pilot function. It is a partial GUI for the well-known PowerShell script by NTDEV, With Winpilots' NeoClippy, you can easily download, mount, and prepare Tiny11.iso images. Feel free to give it a try. Please note, though, this is just a test version. Since it's not an official Microsoft build, I can't offer support for its use. Therefore, use of the script is at your own risk. However, it can serve the purpose of testing and evaluation.
  • Some bugs in the interpretation of links in the Clippy bubble have been fixed.
  • License information has been updated, especially regarding Clippy. Even though Clippy is long gone, we still need to respect the rights associated with it, so you'll see a small copyright notice beneath @microsoft Clippy's search bar. Word on the street is that Melinda Gates may have been the driving force behind Clippy and a few other Microsoft characters. So, big thanks to her for that. With that said, cheers for bringing me into the world, Clippy!
