ReviOS is not a new operating system from scratch, but rather a heavily modified version of existing Windows 10 and Windows 11 builds. Its core philosophy is to minimize everything considered superfluous: background services, pre-installed applications, telemetry, and other rarely used but resource-intensive features.
Standard Windows 10 comes packed with background processes, telemetry tracking, and pre-installed bloatware. For gamers, content creators, and power users, these default settings consume valuable CPU cycles and RAM. ReviOS, a custom Windows 10 operating system modification, solves this problem by stripping away the unnecessary weight of stock Windows.
Restart your PC, enter the BIOS/boot menu, and boot from the USB drive.
Candy Crush, Xbox Game Bar, Cortana, and pre-installed productivity trials are completely purged from the system. Windows Search & Cortana Integration
