A mischievously privacy‑first collection of PowerShell scripts that tame Winget, shush AI assistants, and make Windows act like a secret‑agent‑level fortress. Think of it as giving your PC a “Do Not Disturb” badge—only cooler. This was made possible using AI robots. So use this with particularly attention.

Your cheat‑sheet | Markdown guides, quick‑start tutorials, and a FAQ that answers “Why am I still being watched?” |
- Clone the repo –
git clone https://github.com/your‑name/winget‑privacy.git - Open PowerShell as Admin – because we need those elevated privileges.
- Run the master script –
.\run‑all.ps1and watch the magic happen. 🎩
Pro tip: Run it on a fresh Windows install for maximum effect.
- Privacy: Slash telemetry like a hot knife through butter.
- Speed: Winget installs in the blink of an eye (well, almost).
- Control: You decide which AI features live, which ones die.
