Windows is slow, clunky and unreliable. Atlas brings life back to your Windows system, designed to maximize performance and minimize latency. You will experience a smoother and more responsive Windows, and higher framerates over using standard Windows.
It is an open source project which helps to achieve the following:
- Better Performance: By Removing unnecessary components, disabling power-saving features, and optimizing services.
- Reduced Latency: By fine-tuning processes, implementing an efficient power plan, and optimizing networking, you’ll feel a difference.
- Better Privacy: By eliminating Microsoft’s notorious tracking, pre-installed apps, and bloatware, you can feel confident when using Atlas.
But there are some caveats as this is not the “full bloated” Windows OS, so it is also worth reading their Github project page to see what to expect.
Linus Tech Tips though does a video about it, and also mentions some tips around the hardware side as well.
Another perspective on AtlasOS which is more of a dive into the software side vs the effect on older hardware – https://youtu.be/UICz1S1xuHo
