Every update shipped to the app, latest first.

Version 26.01.26 Minor

1. To make testing easier and to improve user experience, an ON/OFF switch has been added to the following buttons:- Disable Xbox GameDVR and Game Bar (Basic Tweaks)- Apply Hidden Network Registry Tweaks (Network Tweaks) - Power Tweaks:1. Disable Hibernation
2. Disable Sleep Study
3. Disable Fast Startup

2. BIOS Tweaks now prompts users asking if they want to share their BIOS settings for analysis, this will allow more BIOS tweaks to be added to the program, leading to better performance and latency!

3. Appearance Tweaks now have an ON/OFF switch for all the features in there, making customizing Windows easier & faster!
- With a new "Restart Explorer" button you can apply the changes immediately without having to restart Windows.

4. The program now starts much faster and applies tweaks more efficiently, thanks to massive improvements to the back-end, server, and database!

Version 06.10.25 Minor

1. Find the new tweaks added in the public updates

2. The "Timer Resolution Service" is no longer recommended and has been removed:
- Paste this command in command prompt to uninstall it: net stop STR && sc delete STR
- Paste this command too in command prompt to delete the "GlobalTimerResolutionRequests" registry value: reg delete "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\kernel" /v GlobalTimerResolutionRequests /f

3. The program now confirms that the Adamx Tweaking Utility Power Plan is successfully set to active after importing it,
it will let you know if it wasn't set to active successfully so that you can go and set it to active manually in power options.

4. Many programs were removed from the "Useful Programs" tab, a lot were unnecessary and caused trouble,
the ones remaining are the ones I highly recommend using.

5. Removed the "Enable Exclusive Full Screen Mode" button.

Version 06.10.25

1. NEW tweak for NVIDIA and AMD GPUs: Disable Clock Gating
Clock gating is a power saving technique that can add latency, disabling it eliminates that latency thus helping reduce overall latency.

2. NEW tweak in Manage Windows Mitigations: Disable Smart App Control
Smart App Control was introduced in Windows 11 as part of Windows Defender, it is designed to block untrusted, unsigned apps from running (kinda like smart screen but AI powered). While it improves security, many users have reported it causing performance issues, false positives, and the most prominent issue which I myself experienced was the installation of apps that use Windows Installer being extremely slow.

3. Another NEW tweak in Manage Windows Mitigations: Disable Memory Integrity (Core Isolation)
Memory Integrity (part of the Core Isolation feature in Windows Defender) helps protect against malware by isolating critical processes, but it increases CPU and I/O usage. Many users report reduced performance and added input lag when it’s enabled. Disabling it can recover a bit of FPS and improve input lag.

4. More tweaks added in Manage Windows Mitigations: Disable Process Mitigations, Disable IFEO Mitigations, and Disable In-memory Kernel Mitigations.

5. REVAMPED Disable Unnecessary Services → now Manage Windows Services:
- Works on all Windows 11 versions including 24H2 and 25H2.
- Much less strict allowing higher performance without compromising OS usability.
- More customizable and even more will be added to it soon!

6. REVAMPED Appearance Tweaks:
- Redesigned tab for a cleaner look and easier navigation between the different pages; General, File Explorer, and Context Menu.
- Expanded customization options, with more tweaks now being toggleable, so you can turn them off or on depending on your liking.

7. SysMain now includes explanation on when you should enable it or disable it → disable if Windows installed on SSD; enable if on HDD.
8. Added dControl to the Useful Programs tab, allows you to easily disable/enable Windows Defender.
9. Added more values for users to test in the Manage Processes Scheduling (Win32PrioritySeparation) menu!

1. Disable XHCI Hand-off ---> Intel & Ryzen2. Disable Intel VT-D Tech (part of Disable Virtualization) ---> Intel3. Disable Spread Spectrum Control (part of Disable Spread Spectrum) ---> Ryzen

2. The BIOS Tweaks tab has been re-coded:
- The tweaks are now applied with a different technique that is more reliable and much faster.- You can now revert any BIOS tweak by unchecking it and pressing Apply Settings.- The program now automatically greys out any tweak in the BIOS Tweaks tab that your BIOS does not have.- The program now reads the state of a BIOS tweak, allowing you to easily identify if you've already applied this tweak or not.

3. Removed Disable All Bloatware (Windows 10) but kept the button so that people may revert it if they want to before I completely remove it next update.
The new way I recommend to debloat is by using the Uninstall Unnecessary Pre-Installed Applications button, it uninstalls every pre-installed program that you don't need but still keeps Microsoft Store and the other stuff that used to break from the other button like; NVIDIA Control Panel, Start Menu, Search, the Windows Video & Audio Player, and the Photos app.
