* To make a PR on your repo under a new branch linking to the main branch, a button will show and say Preview and Create pull request. Click that button and fill in all the information that is provided on the template. Once all the information is filled in correctly, check your PR to make sure there is not a WinUtil.ps1 file attached to the PR. Once everything is good, make the PR and wait for Chris (the maintainer) to accept or deny your PR. Once it is accepted by Chris, you will be able to see your changes in the "/windev" build.

|
||||
|
||||
### Script blocked by Execution Policy
|
||||
**If the download fails**:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Ensure you are running PowerShell as admin: Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select _PowerShell (Admin)_ in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
|
||||
2. In the PowerShell window, type this to allow unsigned code to execute and run the installation script:

### WinGet configuration
|
||||
|
||||
If you have not installed anything using PowerShell before, you may be prompted to configure WinGet. This requires user interaction on first run. You will need to manually type `y` into the PowerShell console and press enter to continue. Once you do it the first time, you will not be prompted again.
|
||||
|
||||
## Windows Issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows takes longer to shut down
|
||||
|
||||
This could be for a number of reasons:
|
||||
|
||||
- Turn on fast startup: Press `Windows key`+`R`, then type:
|
||||
|
||||
```bat
|
||||
control /name Microsoft.PowerOptions /page pageGlobalSettings
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If that doesn't work, disable Hibernation:
|
||||
|
||||
- Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select _PowerShell (Admin)_ in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11. then type:
|
||||
|
||||
```bat
|
||||
powercfg /H off
|
||||
```
|
||||

||||

### Xbox Game Bar Activation Broken
|
||||
|
||||
Set the Xbox Accessory Management Service to Automatic:
|
||||
1. Try the direct GitHub link:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
Get-Service -Name "XboxGipSvc" | Set-Service -StartupType Automatic
|
||||
irm https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/Winutil/releases/latest/download/Winutil.ps1 | iex
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Related issue: [#198](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/Winutil/issues/198)
|
||||
2. Force TLS 1.2:
|
||||
|
||||
### Windows 11: Quick Settings no longer works
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
|
||||
irm "https://christitus.com/win" | iex
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Launch the Script and click _Enable Action Center_.
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> On Windows 11, you usually do not need the TLS 1.2 command. Use it only if you encounter download or security protocol errors.
|
||||
|
||||
### Explorer (file browser) no longer launches
|
||||
### Execution Policy Error
|
||||
|
||||
- Press `Windows key`+`R` then type:
|
||||
If you see an execution policy error when running the downloaded script, you can allow the current session to run unsigned scripts with this command:
|
||||
|
||||
```bat
|
||||
control /name Microsoft.FolderOptions
|
||||
```
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process -Force
|
||||
irm "https://christitus.com/win" | iex
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Change the _Open File Explorer to_ option to _This PC_.
|
||||
This only changes the policy for the current PowerShell process and is safe for one-off runs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Battery drains too fast
|
||||
### Interface Doesn't Appear
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using a laptop or tablet and find your battery drains too fast, please try the below troubleshooting steps, and report the results back to the Winutil community.
|
||||
If Winutil downloads, but the GUI does not open or appear, try these steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Check Battery Health:**
|
||||
- Press `Windows Key`+`X` and select _PowerShell (Admin)_ in Windows 10, or `Windows Terminal (Admin)` in Windows 11.
|
||||
- Run the following command to generate a battery report:
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
powercfg /batteryreport /output "C:\battery_report.html"
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Open the generated HTML report to review information about battery health and usage. A battery with poor health may hold less charge, discharge faster, or cause other issues.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Review Power Settings:**
|
||||
- Open the Settings app, and go to _System_ > _Power & sleep_.
|
||||
- Adjust power plan settings based on your preferences and usage patterns.
|
||||

||||
```powershell
|
||||
powercfg /energy /output "C:\energy_report.html"
|
||||
```
|
||||
- Open the generated HTML report to identify energy consumption patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
11. **Review Event Logs:**
|
||||
- Open Event Viewer by searching for it in the Start menu.
|
||||
- Navigate to _Windows Logs_ > _System_.
|
||||
- Look for events with the source _Power-Troubleshooter_ to identify power-related events. These may highlight battery, input power, and other issues.

|
||||
- Check Task Scheduler to see if any of the discovered processes are scheduled to start on boot or at regular intervals.
|
||||
|
||||
13. **Advanced Identification of Power-Hungry Apps:**
|
||||
- Open Resource Monitor from the Start menu.
|
||||
- Navigate to the _CPU_, _Memory_, _Network_, and other tabs to identify processes with high resource usage.
|
||||
- Consider reconfiguring, closing, disabling, or uninstalling applications that use a lot of resources.

|
||||
- Locate your network adapter, right-click, and go to _Properties_.
|
||||
- Under the _Power Management_ tab, uncheck the option that allows the device to wake the computer.
|
||||
|
||||
16. **Review Installed Applications:**
|
||||
- Manually review installed applications by searching for _Add or remove programs_ in the Start menu.
|
||||
- Check settings/preferences of individual applications for power-related options.
|
||||
- Uninstall unnecessary or problematic software.
|
||||
|
||||
These troubleshooting steps are generic, but should help in most situations. You should have these key takeaways:
|
||||
|
||||
- Battery health is the most significant limiter on your device's runtime. A battery in poor health usually cannot be made to last like it used to, simply by closing some applications. Consider replacing your battery.
|
||||
- Background applications that use CPU and memory, make lots of or large network requests, read/write to disk frequently, or that keep your PC awake when it could be conserving energy are the next major concern. Avoid installing programs you don't need, only use programs you trust, and configure applications to use as little power and run as infrequently as possible.
|
||||
- Windows performs a lot of tasks that may affect battery life by default. Changing settings, stopping scheduled tasks, and disabling features can help the system stay in lower power states to conserve battery.
|
||||
- Bad chargers, inconsistent power input, and high temperatures will cause batteries to degrade and discharge faster. Use trusted high-quality chargers, ensure input power is steady, clean any fans or airflow ports, and keep the battery/PC cool.
|
||||
1. Check if your antivirus or Windows Defender is blocking the script — add an exclusion if necessary.
|
||||
2. Ensure you launched PowerShell / Terminal as **Administrator**.
|
||||
3. Close and reopen PowerShell, then run the launch command again.
|
||||
4. If the script still doesn't show, try running the script in a visible PowerShell window (avoid background/silent shells) to observe output and errors.

## Registry Changes
|
||||
|
||||
Applications and System Components store and retrieve configuration data to modify Windows settings, so we can use the registry to change many settings in one place.
|
||||
|
||||
You can find information about the registry on [Wikipedia](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Windows_Registry) and [Microsoft's Website](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sysinfo/registry).

|
||||
Winutil is focused on Windows 11.
|
||||
|
||||
### How do I uninstall Winutil?
|
||||
You do not have to uninstall Winutil. As it is a script you run from PowerShell, it only loads into your RAM. This means as soon as you close Winutil, it will be cleared from your system. Winutil doesn't install itself permanently on your computer.

||||
|
||||
### Is Winutil safe to use?
|
||||
Yes, Winutil is open source and the code is publicly available on GitHub. Thousands of users run it daily. However, like any system modification tool, you should:

### Advanced Tweaks (CAUTION)
|
||||
Advanced Tweaks are intended for experienced users who have a solid understanding of their system and the potential implications of making deep-level changes. These tweaks involve more significant alterations to the operating system and can provide substantial customization. However, they also carry a higher risk of causing system instability or unintended side effects if not implemented correctly. Users who choose to apply Advanced Tweaks should proceed with caution, ensuring they have adequate knowledge and backups in place to recover if something goes wrong. These tweaks are not recommended for novice users or those unfamiliar with the inner workings of their operating system.

Winutil provides three update modes so you can choose how aggressively Windows Update is managed on your system:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Default (Out of the Box) Settings**: Restores standard Windows Update behavior
|
||||
- **Security (Recommended) Settings**: Prioritizes stability while still receiving security updates
|
||||
- **Disable ALL Updates**: Turns off Windows Update entirely and should only be used with extreme caution
|
||||
|
||||
### Default (Out of Box) Settings
|
||||
- **Description**: This setting retains the default configurations that come with Windows, ensuring no modifications are made.
|
||||
- **Functionality**: It will remove any custom Windows update settings previously applied.
|
||||
- **Note**: If update errors persist, reset all updates in the configuration tab to restore all Microsoft Update Services to their default settings, reinstalling them from their servers.
|
||||
|
||||
- **What it does**: Restores the default Windows Update configuration.
|
||||
- **Best for**: Systems where you want Windows to manage updates normally.
|
||||
- **Notes**: This removes custom update settings previously applied by Winutil. If update errors continue, use the reset option in the **Config** tab to restore Microsoft Update services to their default state.
|

|
||||
### Security (Recommended) Settings
|
||||
- **Description**: This is the recommended setting for all computers.
|
||||
- **Update Schedule**:
|
||||
- **Feature Updates**: Delays feature updates by 365 days to avoid potential bugs and instability.
|
||||
- **Security Updates**: Installs security updates 4 days after their release to ensure system protection against pressing security flaws.
|
||||
- **Rationale**:
|
||||
- **Feature Updates**: Often introduce new features and bugs; delaying these updates minimizes the risk of system disruptions.

- **Security Updates**: Essential for patching critical security vulnerabilities. Delaying them by a few days allows for verification of stability and compatibility without leaving the system exposed for extended periods.
|
||||
|
||||
- **What it does**: Applies a more conservative update strategy designed for most users.
|
||||
- **Feature updates**: Delayed by **365 days** to reduce the chance of disruption from major Windows changes.
|
||||
- **Security updates**: Delayed by **4 days** to allow time for early issues to surface while still keeping the system protected.
|
||||
- **Why use it**: This mode offers the best balance between security and stability, which is why it is the recommended option for most PCs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Disable ALL Updates (NOT RECOMMENDED!)
|
||||
- **Description**: This setting completely disables all Windows updates.
|
||||
- **Suitability**: May be appropriate for systems used for specific purposes that do not require active internet browsing.
|
||||
- **Warning**: Disabling updates significantly increases the risk of the system being hacked or infected due to the lack of security patches.
|
||||
- **Note**: It is strongly advised against using this setting due to the heightened security risks.
|
||||
|
||||
- **What it does**: Disables all Windows updates.
|
||||
- **Best for**: Highly controlled or special-purpose systems where updates must remain off temporarily.
|
||||
- **Warning**: This leaves the system without security patches and significantly increases security risk.
|
||||
- **Recommendation**: Avoid this mode unless you fully understand the tradeoffs and have a specific reason to use it.

## Using Winutil's Win11 Creator
|
||||
|
||||
Winutil includes a built-in **Win11 Creator** tool that lets you take any official Windows 11 ISO and produce a customized, debloated version — with telemetry removed, hardware requirement checks bypassed, and local account setup enabled out of the box. You can export the result as a new ISO file or write it directly to a USB drive.
