For a while now, Windows 10 has been able to reset to factory and remove all bundled apps via the Fresh Start reset option (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026602/windows-10-give-your-pc-a-fresh-start https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026602/windows-10-...). I've never tested to verify how well it works, and I don't think it prevents apps that Microsoft wants to include like Candy Crush.

You're right, although figuring out the correct path to perform this is confusing since there's a "reset" option (that does remove your personal data incl. files) that simply uses the pre-configured windows image, which Dell/etc modify to include the bundled software: https://superuser.com/q/1236716/543570 https://superuser.com/q/1236716/543570
