GamerOS Windows 10 & 11 DIY Preset

It literally says "[Placeholder for potential updates]" under Notes. There's a few of them sprinkled around like Easter eggs.
None of this has ever been explained.

The problems resolved after removing those components for a fresh install rather than host refresh.
 
Hello everyone, thought I might just pass by and say hello to all my fellow PC enthusiast. Thanks for being part of these sort of communities in this manner. Appreciate yall
 
Hi all, does this preset still work with the current version of Windows 11? I want something minimal for running a game server. Is there a better preset for such purpose? It's an Unreal Engine 5 based dedicated server, uses single core AFAIK and doesn't need a GPU at all. I have enough RAM, I'm mainly looking for minimizing background CPU load. There will be nothing running on this machine besides Steam and that game. Thanks :)

The current preset works for most W10 & W11 releases. There are obviously minor changes, as newer Windows features are added, but those don't impact game performance. Most of the optimization is done by removing background services, and disabling event logging.

GamerOS doesn't represent the most extreme optimization, it gets a very good balance of performance while keeping apps compatibility. A preset is simply a template you can tweak.

Thank you!
 
I've been trying to use this config, it is amazing for English. I do some work for Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese and Korean but sometimes when a certain font is used there will be "blocks" of text that shouldn't be there, do you happen to know which setting being disabled is causing this?

GamerOS removes support for all Asian languages and fonts.
The easy way to fix the preset is open the file in Notepad, and remove these lines:
Code:

Amazing. Thank you. That worked!
 
There's no "best" preset, because everyone's list of apps or HW accessories is different. Some apps will require a feature, that another person doesn't care about. GamerOS appears to be a good reference build, which manages to keep basic app compatibility.

It doesn't do any performance tuning, but that's always HW-specific.

Hello, "edge" has been deleted, so what is the meaning of the existence of "edge update"? Gameros has retained this component.
Huhi marked it in red, but I couldn't find any information about the importance of this component. So why is it so important.
Thank you very much。

I'm not the author of this preset. There are known problems with it, but I'm sharing a copy of the original ZIP as it was first posted here.
Yes, it's contradictory to remove Edge but keep Edge Updater.
