If there was only some way to boot to the desktop and remove all the apps... If only we could rid the world of Metro...

If only Microsoft wakes up and listens to the users!!!

I like ads about as much as I enjoy being kicked in the face by a horse.

"advertising on Windows 8 drives perceptions that the advertised brands are more interesting, innovative and compelling because they are being showcased in a new, interesting ad platform. The unique design approach of Windows 8, which allows for an immersive app experience, while being non-intrusive is a key driver of that."

dafuq? Is there any truth in the above quote?

Remove-ads-from-Windows-8-app

Small batch file to remove AdDuplex and Microsoft ads from within all Windows Store apps. If you find an app that this doesn't work on, please leave a comment and I'll try to update it to include support for that app.

It's easy enough to run.

1) Download and unzip the folder
2) Run TakeControlOf.cmd as Administrator (right-click on it and hit "Run as Administrator")
3) Sit back and wait for it to do its thing. Note: You may have to reboot after this is finished
4) Run AdRemover.bat. should only take a second or two.
5) Repeat step 4 whenever you install a new program from the Windows Store.

Changelog:
v0.7 - Do I even need to say it? MORE ADS GONE!
