Bloatboxer is the latest extension of my Bloatbox app, now specifically designed for Windows 11 (works on Win10 too)! The app helps you identify and remove unnecessary bloatware that clutters your storage and slows down your system. The Windows 10 version of Bloatbox may have stopped working, but Bloatboxer brings the concept back - simpler, faster, better, and optimized for Windows 11.
Bloatboxer allows you to find and remove pre-installed unnecessary programs (bloatware) on your Windows 11 system. The app relies on a community-driven signature file, which is regularly updated to recognize new bloatware. With an easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface, you can quickly clean up your system by removing bloatware.
