Installing Windows is a very daunting task for many people because you have to go through many steps to configure things. Even after completing all these steps, you still need to download some necessary applications like browser, antivirus, media player, etc. Pause.
That’s why you can use Windows Remix. It will help you install certain software according to your automation needs. There is a massive list of software that you can select and install in bulk. Windows Remix will not download and install them at the same time as your PC may crash.
