As for the other versions, also for Windows 10 they came out special programs that allow the user to modify Windows 10 in every aspect, to improve performance, to change the behavior of menus and windows, to better adapt it to your needs and to disable what you don't need.These are the so-called "Tweak" namely hidden settings that cannot be touched from the predefined control menus.
Most of these tools are simple to use, but should be used with some caution.
These programs in fact provide a graphical interface where each option you touch changes one of the Windows registry keys.
Even if they are tested programs, it cannot be ruled out that an incorrect use can make the system unstable and cause errors.
However, those who have some experience in the use of computers and those who enjoy discovering and experimenting with new customizations and configurations, will be able to do all the necessary tests without having to venture directly into the system registry.
Before using these programs, better activate and create a restore point on Windows 10.
1) WinAero Tweaker is, arguably, one of the best free tweaking tools for Windows 10.
With this free tool, which requires no installation, you can change various default settings and customize Windows 10 to your liking.
The Tweaker is updated regularly to include new tweaks and customizations. The various options are also organized by categories, making them easier to find and understand. You can then restore the old clock, the previous view of networks, the old battery manager, the vertical volume bar, you can enable the colored bars of the windows, adjust the height of the menus, change boot and login images of Windows and many other things. Each option can be deactivated and reactivated so you can always go back and do the tests you want to do without fear.
2) Ultimate Windows Tweaker is definitely the most complete tweaking tool for Windows 10, with over 200 settings to change everything in the operating system.

3) Windows 10 Login Background Changer instead it is a program to change the background of the Windows 10 login screen to your liking and make it different from that of the desktop.

For example, you can close programs by clicking on them with the mouse wheel or disable jump lists or even choose how to manage groups of open windows.

Basically, with the help of NTLite, you can create a Windows 10 installation DVD by removing the one you don't want and adding things like drivers or other important software.
