Hi all,
I’ve been working on a project called Aether.
Now, Windows 11 comes with a lot of bloat, telemetry, and background processes that can hurt performance.
I wanted a tool that achieves similar results (lower RAM usage, better input latency, privacy) but works on your current Windows install and is fully reversible.
I built this using Python and Flet for the UI.
⚡ Key Features:
- 🚀 Velocity Mode: Optimization for gamers. Disables Nagle’s algorithm (network throttling), enforces Ultimate Power Plan, disables hibernation (saves RAM-sized storage), and tunes mouse/input latency.
- 👻 Ghost Mode: A privacy suite that disables Telemetry, Copilot, Bing Search in Start, and optional blockers for NVIDIA telemetry and Driver updates.
- 📦 App Manager: A built-in GUI for Winget. Instantly install Chrome, Steam, VS Code, C++ Runtimes, and DirectX without searching the web.
- 🗑️ Advanced Debloater: Selectively remove pre-installed UWP junk (Cortana, Xbox Game Bar, YourPhone, etc).
- 🛠️ Repair Toolbox: One-click fixes for Network Stack, Windows Update, System Time, and SSD Trimming.
- 🛡️ Persistence: Includes a background daemon that ensures Windows Updates don't revert your privacy settings.
💻 Tech Stack:
- Language: Python 3.10+
- UI Framework: Flet (Flutter for Python)
- Backend: ctypes for API calls and PowerShell wrappers.
