## What it is
A collection of unattended answer files (autounattend.xml) that automate debloating and customization of Windows 10 and 11 during installation. It runs on official Microsoft ISOs using Microsoft's supported answer file mechanism.

## Use cases
- debloat windows 11 during installation
- automate windows 10 setup across multiple pcs
- remove preinstalled apps from a fresh windows install
- customize windows settings automatically at install time
- create a clean windows install without bloatware
- unattended windows deployment from official iso

## When to choose
- you want a transparent, inspectable debloat using official Microsoft ISOs
- you need to set up multiple Windows machines without repetitive manual configuration
- you prefer Microsoft's supported answer file mechanism over third-party modified ISOs

## When to avoid
- you need deep customization beyond the provided answer files - use an unattend generator instead
- you want a post-install debloat tool rather than install-time automation
- you run a non-Windows operating system
