- The built-in app removal tool "Dumputer" has been expanded with two "baskets," allowing you to drag bloatware apps from one box to the second trash bin (this UI experience is inspired by my old app "Bloatbox". "By the way, the classic best Bloatynosy under version 0.85 looked like that too ;)).
- A new Plugin Store has been added, where third-party plugins will be available in the future. By the way, you'll also find several Windows 11 upgrade plugins from my Flyby11 app here, such as the In-place Upgrade via Server Setup.
- The plugin functionality, especially enabling plugins and accessing the store, has been simplified and now only requires a single click on "Visit Store."
You probably remember my classic BloatynosyApp, which had to go through some renaming and eventually got discontinued. Everything that came after, like the web-based "Winpilot," didn't last long either. Honestly, I thought I was done with Bloatynosy-well, at least with the name. But then, during a recent visit to a well-known company, I saw an employee Googling the app and trying to download it, and I had to stifle a laugh. Apparently, the legend lives on. The employee and I had a good laugh about it, and he even called it the epitome of debloating. I had a hard time committing to it, but in the end, I went for it. Now I can proudly say that after Bloatynosy, there won’t be anything newer or better. This time, it'll be even leaner, more efficient, smaller, and faster. A simple .exe that anyone can understand, doing exactly what bugs us after installing Windows 11. The reborn Bloatynosy carries the "Nue" extension (Bloatynosy Nue), not "New" ;) The last solid, classic version was 0.85, and that's where Im picking up (with a fresh new interface). The build carries a small 11.x version number.
If you haven’t heard yet, BloatyNosy has been brought back to life, read on to learn more...
Sometimes, I think a little too long about things, and then a useful project just pops out. Bloatynosy was one of those projects. Sure, the name wasn't for everyone, but it was the go-to tool for cleaning up and debloating Windows. Recently, I added an OOBE assistant called "Fresh11" to the FlybyScript—basically, an all-in-one solution and I figured, why not use the same foundation to bring Bloatynosy back to life?
