MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks contains over 200 files, less than 3MB total, including Registry, PowerShell, Visual Basic, Shortcuts, and Batch Files to enable tweaks and many hidden features in Windows 11, 10, 8, and 7 for any skill level. You can browse all of the tweaks individually here.

One neat thing about MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks is that many of these are hidden, removed, or unavailable settings and features in Windows. You can browse the collection, delete or move any tweaks you like, and create a custom collection of your favorite tweaks. Because we're not limited by code, we can offer you system tweaks not found in any other Windows tweaker.

Another interesting feature is opening any file to see what changes are being made and, in some cases, customize before you apply.

There are numerous excellent tweaking programs, but they are limited by design. Often, these apps use mostly registry and command prompt changes allowing us to offer you tweaks that aren't found (Registry, PowerShell, Visual Basic, Shortcuts, and Batch Files) in most tweaking apps. Trust us. We tried!

You can either browse through the files and folders one at a time in file explorer. Or, after version 2.96, you can use the MajorGeeksWindowsTweaks.exe to navigate for you. Written by the super geeky author at Alomware, the interface is just what we needed. It allows you to browse each category in a more friendly manner, search for the tweak you like, preview the scripts prior to applying, apply a tweak, and access the tutorial in just a few clicks. All while keeping the program itself 100% portable. The best way to use the interface is once you unzip the collection, right-click on MajorGeeksWindowsTweaks.exe and choose "run as administrator." This will make your life way easier later.

MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks is now on Github and Sourceforge. Sourceforge and Github users can follow the project and get notified when we update!

Most tweaks are tested in Windows 10 & 11, but many will also work in Windows 7 and 8. As always, be sure to back up your registry first.

  • Version History for MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks:
    2.97
    Added Batch File to Repair Outlook This Operation Has Been Canceled Due to Restrictions Error
    Added Change Scroll Bar Width and Height Tweak

    Major new addition: Favorite tweaks! Now you can click a "heart" icon for a tweak so that it becomes available in the system tray for applying.

    Enhancements:
    - The app now has a system tray icon that you can right-click to apply your favorite tweaks.
    - Tweaks that require a different version of Windows will be shown in red color to indicate they're unavailable.
    - Trying to apply an OS-specific tweak without that OS will not be permitted (Win 11 tweaks can't be applied if your PC is Win 10, etc).
    - Tweaks that require admin rights, when you haven't run the app as admin, will be shown in light gray color to indicate they're unavailable.
    - Trying to apply an admin tweak without being admin will not be permitted (you'll need to launch the app with admin rights).
    - The F11 key now toggles maximizing of the app's window.
    - All messages are now shown centered on the app's window.

    Bug fix:
    Messages no longer stay on top when you switch to another app.

    Editor's Note:
    Some users have noticed Windows Defender Antivirus has started to (falsely) flag MajorGeeks Windows Tweaks. You can still download it as explained here.
