I have a small Windows 10 Intel NUC that I use for Visual Studio to pull code to test and debug. I did tweak it by removing many packages with: Get-AppxPackage | Select Name, PackageFullName Remove-AppxPackage ... I also did tweak the group policies to prevent Windows 10 for many things, such as not use Cortana and not to auto-update and restart without notice. The software I write needs to run for weeks without leaks, that's one of the things I need to test on that system. That NUC computer running Windows 10 is a pure joy to use. Once trimmed down Windows boots in seconds and never interrupt me while I am working.
