Microsoft needs to take charge of it and make it such that people can revert to fresh copy of windows. Formatting the computer is an easy solution but then why should I ditch out 100+$ on a windows license. The first thing I do when I get a PC is to format it but none of my friends do and later ditch windows. I won't be surprised if all the hate about windows being slow and resource hog exists because of these bloatwares.
- protomyth 16y agoWhat exactly would Microsoft's motivation be to remove a revenue stream from their OEMs? It would be like Google requiring all Android phones to not have carrier supplied software by default. Both would be nice, but this installed software makes the difference in profitability.

And I was not suggesting Microsoft should not allow them to add bloatware but to allow an easier path for user like me to revert back if I want. Currently, I have to find a install CD and do a fresh install. I am just hoping there be a way where everyone is happy.
