I just want an easy way to set up my system to be as minimal, bloated. ugly, or as beautiful as I want, and I shouldn't have to resort to complicated scripts and procedures in order to do that. I have delved into software remastering years ago with XP and Vista trying to minimize those installs and slip stream only the necessary drivers into the CAB files. I never really dialed that in as well as I would have liked, since I'm not an engineer and was still trying to comprehend the whole process. Today it just seems pointless to try that with Windows 10 and with that I might as well develop my own Linux distribution, which I'm loathe to do at this juncture. I want all the power and the resources pointed at the operations that I'm trying to run and nothing else, and certainly not at Microsoft's brand of spyware. Function over form is my bent. Every TSR, process, and program is just an additional door, access or vector of vulnerability ripe for exploitation, and that would also include security software if those aren't secure enough.
