Remove system apps

Overview​

About this category

This category contains privacy scripts for Windows.

These changes use Windows system commands to update your settings.

This category includes scripts for uninstalling default system apps in Windows.

System apps are pre-installed 1 2 applications located in the C:\Windows* directory 1 2. These apps are typically found on C:\Windows\SystemApps\{PackageFamilyName} or C:\Windows\{ShortAppName} folders.

They are integral components of the Windows operating system 1. Removing certain system apps may improve privacy by reducing data collection. It can also improve system performance by freeing up system resources.

These scripts can make significant changes to your Windows system. While these scripts aim to improve privacy, they may also affect system functionality. These scripts remove several built-in Windows applications and modify system settings. This can affect your system's behavior and potentially break certain features. Removing certain apps or changing settings may disable features you rely on. Apply only the changes you fully understand and need, rather than running all scripts indiscriminately.

To list all system apps:

  1. Open a PowerShell command prompt.
  2. Execute the following command: Get-AppxPackage -PackageTypeFilter Main | ? { $_.SignatureKind -eq "System" } | Sort Name | Format-Table Name, PublisherId, InstallLocation
Caution

Uninstalling a system app may improve privacy but can also disable critical features and affect system functionality.

Excluded System apps​

Some system apps are excluded from removal by privacy.sexy due to their critical role in OS functionality and lack of documented privacy benefits.

This package, in combination with MicrosoftWindows.Client.Core 13, enables the Windows Feature Experience Pack 13 [24] [25] [27] [28] [29].

This app provides UI (User Interface) and UX (User Experience) features, independent of the main operating system [24] [25] [26] [27]. CBS in this package name means Component-Based Servicing [26] [30] [31] [32]. Microsoft uses it to update these UI/UX features independently of the core operating system, using different update cycles [24] [25] [26] [27] [30].

This package includes features such as:

  • System tray features 13 [32]
  • Taskbar features 13 [32]
  • Text input features [24] [25] [29] [31] [33] (replacing older InputApp package [29] [31] [32] [33]) including:

File Explorer (Extensions) (MicrosoftWindows.Client.FileExp)​

File Explorer (Extensions) is an experimental (canary) app from Microsoft for enhancing File Explorer [39]. This app is identified as MicrosoftWindows.Client.FileExp [39] [40] [41].

It adds new features to File Explorer, such as context menu enhancements, command bar extensions, tabs, details pane, folder view, navigation content extensions [40]. It also introduces a Gallery view for some users [39] [41].

It uses Windows App SDK for the File Explorer [39] [41]. The Windows App SDK is a toolkit that simplifies the creation of Windows desktop apps by combining traditional and modern development methods [42].

This app is part of Microsoft's effort to modularize Windows, separating system functions into individual apps [39] [41]. This modularization allows for easier and quicker updates and improvements [39].

This app raises several privacy concerns:

  • Data collection: This app includes telemetry features that collect data [40] [43].
  • Telemetry: The app includes automatic data collection and transmission functions [40] [43].
  • Consent by use: Using the app implies agreement to its data collection practices.

Tests confirm that deleting this app completely disables the File Explorer in Windows 11 23H2. This app comes pre-installed on certain versions of Windows 9.
