    Still assembled, still runs. Haven't turned it on for 15 years?
I'll test this too (in a VM) but only after Ghot weighs in after trying it.

I'm gonna check this out this afternoon, when I'm on Windows 11 again.
@Ghot

You might also want to check out BloatyNosy by the same developer, which seems likely to be the eventual replacement for 'ThisIsWin11', presumably considering the application's development beyond '11'

Well here is the main issue with all these sorts scripts - you do not know what they do, how easy it is to revert etc.

OK, definitely not relevant here, but some of these scripts come from really questionable sources (Dave down the pub says....), and you have no idea what damage they can do.

The most important thing to do is make an image backup before you use such scripts, no matter how safe it is believed to be. Nobody can guarantee a script that removes lots of apps is 100% safe for all users. In all probability, scripts from reputable sources (regulars here for example) are very safe but never assume that it is 100% guaranteed.

A slightly more subtle point is these scripts often remove things safely enough but it is not always as reversible as it is supposed to be.

I figured it out. Downloaded the wrong things from GitHub. Anyways ran Bloaty Nosy app and picked what settings I wanted and use Revo to uninstall all the trials and HP software. Installed Office 2021 and everything seems to be running well
