Notes

• This is a long process, it can break your windows installation and harm your computer.
• This is only recommended for advanced users.
• Backup all your data before you start.
• Proceed at your own risk.

1.DOWNLOAD THE NEEDED FILES

Make sure you have downloaded:

• Cursors.
• Fonts.
• Icons.
• Software tweaks.
• Themes.
• Tweaks.
• Wallpapers (optional).

2. DONWLOAD & INSTALL THE SOFTWARE YOU WANT / NEED FOR YOURE DAILY USE ON WINDOWS

In my case I use:

• 3DS Max Autodesk
• 7zip.
• μTorrent (2.2.1).
• Adobe Creative Cloud.
• Google Chrome (Chromium).
• iTunes.
• Steam.
• Sublime Text 3.
• VLC.

3. TWEAK THE SYSTEM TO GET THE BEST POSSIBLE PERFORMANCE

1. Update Windows to the latest version.

2. Update GPU/Proccesor drivers.

3. Control Panel > Power Options > High Performance (Disable Sleep).

4. Let the system idle for 2 minutes to get every proccess loaded. Then exec this command on a cmd with admin priviledges: winsat formal.

5. Disable Windows Defender + Notifications.

6. Configure NVIDIA 3D Settings like this:

   

7. WINDOWS KEY + R > msconfig: Boot Tab > No GUI Boot > Timeout = 03 seconds > Advanced Options > Number of processors = Max availabes.

8. Task Manager > Startup > Disable everything you don't want.

9. System > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings > Disable as much as you can without making your system look awful.

10. System > Advanced System Settings > System Protection > Configure > Disable System Protection > Delete File.

11. Control Panel > Uninstall a Program > Turn Windows Features ON/OFF > Turn everything off but .NET 4.6 | Media Features | Print to PDF.

12. Reboot Your System.

13. Open the Tweaks folder and exec both scripts with admin priviledges. (recomended to exec them twice both as admin and normal user)

14. Reboot and you are done.

4. CUSTOMIZE THE WINDOWS INTERFACE (RICING)

1. Open the Themes folder and install UxStyle.
2. On the Themes folder Install OldNewExplorer and configure it however you want.
3. Choose your theme and Copy it to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes.
4. Set the theme on Personalization.
5. Go to the Fonts folder select them all (CRTL + A) > Right click > Install.
6. Exec the changeFontWin10.reg script.
7. Go to cursors folder > choose your prefered cursor pack > exec install.inf.
8. To apply the cursors go to Personalization > Mouse Pointers.
9. Go to Icons folder and exec the ".exe" of your prefered icons.
10. Select and apply your favourite wallpaper. (My favourite ones are included on the walls folder)
11. Reboot to apply all changes.

5. CLEAN EVERYTHING UP

To make sure you have not downloaded any virus during the process install Malwarebytes and run a scan. To clean registry and residual files install Ccleaner and go through the options.

After you are done with both things I recommend to uninstall both programs.
