unslop-windows v1.4.1

Fixed

• •UCPD Kernel Driver Policy Interception (AllowNewsAndInterests): Neutralized the User Choice Protection Driver (UCPD.sys) in Stage 1 Services (Set-SvcState "UCPD" ... "Manual") and disabled the companion \Microsoft\Windows\AppxDeploymentClient\UCPD velocity scheduled task in Stage 11. In Set-RegDwordSafe, if a registry write to HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Dsh\AllowNewsAndInterests or TaskbarDa is intercepted by the active in-memory UCPD kernel filter driver before reboot, the policy is staged seamlessly via HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce\unslop_<name> for automatic post-restart application, eliminating UnauthorizedAccessException and false failure alerts.

• •WindowsAI SYSTEM-Only Scheduled Tasks Access Denied: Filtered out internal Click to Do, Recall, and Settings Agent tasks (ModelCachingLimit, ModelCachingUpdate, PolicyConfiguration, Settings\InitialConfiguration) from \Microsoft\Windows\WindowsAI\* dynamic scans. These tasks have hardened Security Descriptors granting write access exclusively to NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM ((A;;FRFX;;;BA)(A;;GA;;;SY)) and are already fully inert due to GPO policies and WSAIFabricSvc service neutralization.

• •Defensive ACL & Driver Service Handling: Hardened Set-SvcState to set service startup type to Disabled first and gracefully catch stop errors on non-unloadable kernel filter drivers. Hardened Set-TaskState to detect tasks with SYSTEM-only SDDLs and skip them with informative logging rather than raising unhandled exceptions. Symmetrically aligned unslop-win10.ps1 helper functions.

Added

• •Machine-Wide Search Highlights (WSB), Location & Cloud Search GPOs: Enforced EnableDynamicContentInWSB = 0 (disabling Bing dynamic search highlights and doodles machine-wide), AllowSearchToUseLocation = 0 (blocking location harvesting by SearchHost/Cortana), and AllowCloudSearch = 0 (disabling cloud account integration in search results) under HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search across both unslop-win11.ps1 and unslop-win10.ps1 with 100% symmetrical -Undo restoration.

• •Unit & AST Invariant Tests: Added automated tests to tests/unslop-win11.Tests.ps1 and tests/unslop-win10.Tests.ps1 verifying symmetrical UCPD management, SYSTEM-only AI task exclusion, and search machine GPO enforcement.

• •Architectural Decision Records (ADR-033 & ADR-034): Documented UCPD driver behavior, RunOnce staging mechanics, WindowsAI task security descriptor defenses, and machine-wide search policy hardening in docs/decisions.md.

unslop-windows v1.3.7

Added

• •Batch Launcher Pester Test Suite (tests/unslop.bat.Tests.ps1): Integrated comprehensive unit testing for unslop.bat (12 tests) verifying non-empty file existence, CRLF line-ending byte integrity, script dependency guards, CLI switch whitelist completeness, injection token defense, and menu structure routing. Integrated directly into scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1 under Pillar 4.

• •Cross-Platform Cmdlet Test Stubs: Added fallback stubs for Windows cmdlets (Get-Service, Stop-Service, Set-Service, Start-Service, Get-ScheduledTask, Disable-ScheduledTask, Enable-ScheduledTask) across tests/unslop-win10.Tests.ps1 and tests/unslop-win11.Tests.ps1 to ensure reliable mock execution across heterogeneous test environments.

• •Negative Error Handling Tests: Added explicit unit tests verifying that Remove-StartupEntry catches New-Item backup creation exceptions, increments $global:FailCount, and logs truthful failure entries per ADR-019. Added negative unit test in tests/Install-GitHooks.Tests.ps1 verifying fail-closed exit when individual .githooks scripts are missing.

Changed

• •Bloatware Exclusion Filtering Performance Optimization: Replaced sequential pipeline-chained Where-Object array rebuilds with a single-pass [System.Collections.Generic.HashSet[string]] case-insensitive lookup and .Where() filter across both unslop-win10.ps1 and unslop-win11.ps1.

unslop-windows v1.3.6

Added

• •Xbox Game Bar & Game DVR Telemetry Suppression: Added complete de-provisioning and removal of Xbox Game Bar packages (Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay, Microsoft.XboxGameOverlay, Microsoft.XboxSpeechToTextOverlay) under if (-not $KeepXbox) across Windows 11 and Windows 10. Added policy suppression of Game DVR hotkeys (Win+G) and background capture (AppCaptureEnabled = 0, HistoricalCaptureEnabled = 0, GameDVR_Enabled = 0, AllowGameDVR = 0) with 100% symmetrical -Undo restoration. Added symmetrical management of Xbox Live daemon services (XblAuthManager, XblGameSave, XboxNetApiSvc, XboxGipSvc).

• •Edge Copilot & Sidebar Policy Suppression: Hardened Module 14 in both engines with HubsSidebarEnabled = 0 and AllowCopilot = 0 under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge to suppress Copilot and promotional sidebar web hubs in Edge, with clean -Undo reversal.

• •Windows 10 Copilot Parity: Backported Windows Copilot Group Policy enforcement (TurnOffWindowsCopilot = 1, ShowCopilotButton = 0) to unslop-win10.ps1 for Windows 10 22H2 (KB5032278) systems.

unslop-windows v1.3.3

Added

• •Git Hook Installer Unit Tests (tests/Install-GitHooks.Tests.ps1): Added 9 Pester 6+ unit and mocking tests covering scripts/Install-GitHooks.ps1, including git binary availability invariants, repository boundary checks, hook uninstallation (-Uninstall), prerequisite package installation (-InstallPrerequisites), and gate execution pipelines.

• •System State Benchmark Test Suite (tests/Measure-SystemState.Tests.ps1): Added 15 Pester 6+ unit and integration tests covering scripts/Measure-SystemState.ps1, including RAM and commit metrics computation, active process/thread counters, telemetry service and task status mapping, AppX package counts, non-elevated error handling, snapshot comparisons (-Baseline, -Target, -Compare), and Markdown benchmark report generation (-ExportMarkdown).

• •Extensible Multi-Suite Discovery in Test-MasterGate.ps1: Modernized Step 4 of the Master Quality Gate to dynamically discover and execute auxiliary test suites (Install-GitHooks.Tests.ps1, Measure-SystemState.Tests.ps1) alongside the core Windows 11 and Windows 10 engine test suites in a single unified Pester run (expanding coverage to 85 passing tests).

Fixed

• •Divide-by-Zero Protection in Measure-SystemState.ps1: Added a safe zero-check to UsedRAM_Percent calculation in scripts/Measure-SystemState.ps1 to prevent arithmetic exceptions when querying systems with uninitialized or mocked memory metrics.

• •Dot-Source Guard in Measure-SystemState.ps1: Added procedural execution guard (if ($MyInvocation.InvocationName -eq '.') { return }) allowing external harnesses and Pester suites to safely import Get-SystemMetrics without triggering immediate live metric collection or output generation.

unslop-windows v1.3.0

Removed

• •Third-Party Discord Startup Removal: Removed Discord startup entry cleanup from Section 14 in both unslop-win11.ps1 and unslop-win10.ps1. Discord startup suppression was originally added as a personal configuration choice by the me. As the repository grew, debloating was scoped strictly to Windows and Microsoft components rather than third-party desktop software.

Added

• •Granular Custom CLI Flags: Added 10 granular switches across both engines to give users control over individual components without modifying core scripts:

- -KeepSysMain: Preserves the SysMain (Superfetch) service. Recommended for mechanical hard drives and SATA SSD (with no DRAM Cache) storage setups where background caching prevents I/O thrashing. - -KeepSearch: Preserves the Windows Search indexer service (WSearch). - -KeepPhoneLink: Preserves the Phone Link app (Microsoft.YourPhone) and cross-device sync services (CrossDeviceResumeHost, Connected Devices Platform and CDP firewall rules). - -KeepMail: Preserves Outlook / Mail and Calendar apps (Microsoft.OutlookForWindows and Microsoft.WindowsCommunicationsApps). - -KeepClock: Preserves the Windows Clock and Alarms app (Microsoft.WindowsAlarms) on Windows 10. - -KeepSpotify: Preserves pre-installed Spotify app (SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic). - -KeepStoreAutoUpdate: Preserves Microsoft Store automatic background app updates (AutoDownload = 4). - -LeftTaskbar: Sets Windows 11 taskbar alignment to the left (TaskbarAl = 0). - -ExcludeWUDrivers: Prevents Windows Update from installing hardware driver updates (ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate = 1). - -KeepDefenderDefaults: Preserves default Microsoft Defender sample submission settings (SubmitSamplesConsent = 1).

• •Interactive Batch Custom Flags Menu (unslop.bat): Added Option [7] Custom CLI Flags to unslop.bat, allowing users to enter custom parameter strings interactively while keeping Option [4] lean.

• •Unit and Parameter Tests: Added unit tests covering -KeepSysMain, -KeepSearch, -KeepPhoneLink and -KeepClock across tests/unslop-win11.Tests.ps1 and tests/unslop-win10.Tests.ps1, replacing legacy Discord mocks with generic startup test mocks.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-026 detailing third-party scope correction, -KeepSysMain and custom CLI flags architecture.

Changed

• •Batch CLI Argument Whitelist (unslop.bat): Expanded the headless parameter whitelist in unslop.bat to support all 10 new flags for direct command-line execution.

️ unslop-windows v1.2.3

Fixed

• •AppX Restoration Parameter Binding (Add-AppxPackage): Removed invalid -AllUsers parameter from Add-AppxPackage -RegisterByFamilyName -MainPackage ... in Stage 12 of unslop-win11.ps1 and Stages 2 and 12 of unslop-win10.ps1. Add-AppxPackage does not support -AllUsers (only Remove-AppxPackage and Get-AppxPackage do), resolving 5 parameter binding exceptions during -Undo runs on provisioned packages (aimgr, MicrosoftWindows.Client.WebExperience, Microsoft.Office.ActionsServer, Microsoft.OfficePushNotificationUtility, Microsoft.GamingApp).

• •Idempotent Registry Property Deletion (Set-RegDwordSafe): Updated Set-RegDwordSafe's -removeOnUndo exception handler in both engines to recognize when a target registry property is already absent (does not exist or PSArgumentException), safely recording SKIP: <name> not present in <path> instead of emitting a hard FAILED: error and incrementing $global:FailCount. Real permission or mutation errors continue to be trapped and reported truthfully.

Added

• •Automated Parameter Binding & Idempotency Tests:

- Added unit test cases verifying that non-existent registry property deletions on -Undo exit cleanly with 0 failures ($global:FailCount -eq 0). - Added AST assertions across both tests/unslop-win11.Tests.ps1 and tests/unslop-win10.Tests.ps1 ensuring Add-AppxPackage never binds the invalid -AllUsers switch.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-025 covering AppX restoration parameter defense and idempotent registry property deletion.

• •Microsoft Store Background Auto-Download Suppression (AutoDownload = 2): Configured machine-wide policy HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsStore\AutoDownload = 2 across both Windows 11 and Windows 10 engines to prevent silent background updates from waking up wsappx (AppXSVC) and WinGet COM Server, eliminating unprompted NVMe write spikes while preserving manual Store updates.

• •Cross-Device Resume (XDR) & Connected Devices Platform Disabling:

- Configured MDM PolicyManager gate HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PolicyManager\default\Connectivity\DisableCrossDeviceResume\value = 1 in unslop-win11.ps1, preventing sihost.exe from spawning CrossDeviceResume.exe into RAM at user logon. - Set Connected Devices Platform policy HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\EnableCdp = 0 across both engines to disable cross-device hand-off activities system-wide. - Set user-level toggles IsResumeAllowed = 0 and IsOneDriveResumeAllowed = 0 under HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CrossDeviceResume\Configuration. - Added active process termination for CrossDeviceResume.exe during debloat runs.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-024 detailing Store auto-download throttling, Cross-Device Resume MDM/CDP disabling and WebExperience package alignment.

Fixed

• •Windows Web Experience Pack (WebExperience) Package Typo: Added "MicrosoftWindows.Client.WebExperience" to $bloatApps in unslop-win11.ps1, resolving a dot-notation mismatch that previously prevented Windows Widgets from being de-provisioned.

unslop-windows v1.1.5

Security

• •Reparse Point & Symlink Traversal Defense (scripts/Measure-SystemState.ps1): Resolved $snapshotPath before checking directory attributes and enforced exit 1 fail-closed termination when a reparse point or directory junction is encountered in user profiles, preventing symlink redirection attacks (OPSEC-01).

Added

• •Local Pre-Commit Git Hook (.githooks/pre-commit): Added automated pre-commit quality gate execution running rapid AST, PSScriptAnalyzer and CRLF integrity checks on feature branches and full 7-pillar gates on main.

• •Automated Developer Prerequisite Installer (scripts/Install-GitHooks.ps1): Added -InstallPrerequisites switch to automatically discover and install Pester 5+ and PSScriptAnalyzer into the current user's profile and configure Git hook paths in a single command.

• •Production PR Standards Documentation (CONTRIBUTING.md): Testing guidelines, Git hook lifecycles and mandatory pull request checklist requiring 0 failures under Test-MasterGate.ps1 -Strict.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-021 detailing diagnostic benchmark security, multi-architecture AppX array binding and local developer hook gates.

Fixed

• •AppX Multi-Architecture Parameter Binding (unslop.ps1): Handled multi-architecture AppX matches safely by iterating over matched packages (foreach ($pkg in $match)) rather than binding package arrays directly to Add-AppxPackage -PackagePath.

• •Log Buffer Variable Scoping (unslop.ps1): Explicitly scoped $script:log in the log buffer export routine, guaranteeing complete log flushing even when called across nested scopes.

Changed

unslop-windows v1.1.4

Fixed

• •Widgets Policy Alignment & UCPD Defense (unslop.ps1): Switched Widgets disablement from user-mode HKCU:\...\Advanced\TaskbarDa to machine-wide Group Policy HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Dsh\AllowNewsAndInterests = 0 (undo 1, removeOnUndo = $true). This avoids UnauthorizedAccessException from the Windows 11 User Choice Protection Driver (UCPD.sys) introduced in 23H2/24H2 while cleanly disabling Widgets system-wide.

• •SYSTEM-Restricted Task Cleanup (unslop.ps1): Removed \Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\SdbinstMergeDbTask from debloat scheduled tasks list. This task is Windows' internal app compat shim DB merger (non-telemetry) and has an explicit SDDL descriptor restricting write access to SYSTEM (BA only has Read/Execute), which caused Access is denied under standard Administrator elevation.

• •Inbox SystemApps Depuration & NonRemovable Filter (unslop.ps1): Removed protected inbox SystemApps (MicrosoftWindows.Client.Photon, MicrosoftWindows.Client.CoreAI, MicrosoftWindows.UndockedDevKit) from $bloatApps and added -not $_.NonRemovable filtering to Get-AppxPackage retrieval, preventing 0x80070032 (ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED) deployment errors on immutable system components while keeping AI engines disabled via GPO and ConsentStore.

• •PowerShell Registry Drive Mapping (unslop.ps1): Replaced unmounted HKCR:\CLSID\{018D5C66-...} with HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{018D5C66-...} in both debloat and undo OneDrive unpinning routines, eliminating "Cannot find drive HKCR" errors.

Added

• •Automated Registry & System Package Invariant Tests (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Added test assertions ensuring AllowNewsAndInterests is used for Widgets, forbidding unmounted HKCR: paths in registry operations, verifying SdbinstMergeDbTask is excluded and locking Photon, CoreAI and UndockedDevKit into the non-removable package invariants.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-020 detailing Windows 11 24H2/25H2 Protection Driver (UCPD), Inbox SystemApps and Elevation ACL Alignment.

unslop-windows v1.1.3

Fixed

• •Defender Telemetry Invariant Alignment (unslop.ps1): Corrected Defender SubmitSamplesConsent from 0 (AlwaysPrompt, which caused interactive prompts) to 2 (NeverSend) in debloat mode and 1 (SendSafeSamples) in undo mode (BUG-01).

• •Startup Entry Preservation & Restoration Symmetry (unslop.ps1): Upgraded Remove-StartupEntry to archive target startup entries under HKCU:\Software\unslop-windows\StartupBackup during debloat, enabling 100% lossless symmetrical restoration under -Undo (BUG-02).

• •AppX Package List Depuration (unslop.ps1): Removed system-protected and non-removable packages (CloudExperienceHost, PeopleExperienceHost, ParentalControls, NarratorQuickStart, ECApp, MicrosoftEdge.Stable, MicrosoftEdgeDevToolsClient) from $bloatApps, preventing 0x80073CFA de-provisioning errors (BUG-03).

• •Non-Elevated AppX Audit Fidelity & Sequential Enumeration Bottleneck (unslop.ps1): Switched AppX evaluation to a single-pass Get-AppxPackage query with in-memory regex matching, reducing scan latency from ~14s to <1s while providing clear current-user audit guidance when running non-elevated -DryRun (BUG-04, PERF-01).

• •Silent Placebo Logging Elimination (unslop.ps1): Initialized $global:FailCount tracking across all modules; replaced raw unhandled commands in scheduled tasks (NVIDIA, Recall, OneDrive) with defensive Set-TaskState invocations and added error trapping with informative failure reporting to firewall and context menu operations (INV-01).

• •Vanishing Elevated Menu Windows (unslop.bat): Added -FromMenu parameter forwarding to the launcher switch whitelist, ensuring that elevated executions initiated from the interactive console menu pause with anti-screen-amnesia before returning to the menu (INV-02).

• •Local Clipboard History Decoupling (unslop.ps1): Preserved local Win + V multi-item clipboard history by eliminating EnableClipboardHistory = 0 and AllowClipboardHistory = 0, while keeping cross-device cloud clipboard synchronization disabled (INV-03).

• •CI PSScriptAnalyzer Pre-Installation (lint.yml, release.yml): Added automated PSScriptAnalyzer module installation to CI workflows to guarantee static analysis coverage is never skipped in automated pipelines.

Added

• •Universal Mutating AST Audit (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Expanded the AST parity suite to scan all registry, scheduled task and service mutations, strictly forbidding naked mutating cmdlets outside approved bidirectional helper functions.

• •Negative Error-Trap Unit Tests (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Added test cases injecting exceptions into helper mocks, verifying error trapping, $global:FailCount increments and truthful FAILED: logging.

• •System Package Blacklist Assertions (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Added automated checks ensuring $bloatApps never contains immutable system packages or essential Windows Store runtimes.

• •Fail-Closed CI Tooling (scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1): Introduced -Strict mode (auto-engaged in GitHub Actions) that fails with exit code 1 if PSScriptAnalyzer or Pester 5 is missing.

• •Automated Test Enforcement Policy: Codified requirements that no architectural policy or safety rule exist purely as markdown prose without automated test enforcement in CONTRIBUTING.md.

• •Architectural Decision Record (docs/decisions.md): Documented ADR-019 covering engine integrity, startup symmetry, Defender realignment and audit fidelity.

unslop-windows v1.1.2

Security

• •Elevated Binary Authenticode Verification (unslop.ps1): Prioritized protected system directories (SysWOW64, System32) for OneDriveSetup.exe uninstaller resolution. Strictly enforced cryptographic Get-AuthenticodeSignature verification (Status = Valid, CN=Microsoft Corporation) before executing any user-writable %LOCALAPPDATA% binary in an elevated Administrator context (VULN-01).

• •CLI & Parameter Whitelist Validation Loop (unslop.bat): Implemented strict token whitelist checking (-Undo, -Restore, -DryRun, -WhatIf, -KeepXbox, -KeepOneDrive, -KeepTodos, -ClassicContextMenu, -NoRestart, -ForceRestart, -RunDirect), rejecting unlisted parameters and metacharacters with exit code 1 to eliminate command and argument injection vectors (VULN-02).

• •Fail-Closed Offline Architecture (unslop.bat): Removed unauthenticated Invoke-RestMethod script downloads from GitHub CDN. If unslop.ps1 is missing, the launcher halts with a clear error requiring users to extract the full release archive, eliminating supply chain and MITM risks (VULN-03).

• •Reparse Point & Symlink Defense (unslop.ps1): Decoupled log saving fallback now targets isolated $env:LOCALAPPDATA\unslop-windows\logs and inspects directory attributes for [System.IO.FileAttributes]::ReparsePoint, preventing junction/symlink redirection attacks in shared or multi-user environments (OPSEC-01).

• •Release Archive Unit Test Packaging (.github/workflows/release.yml): Added tests/ directory to Compress-Archive in GitHub Actions release packaging step per ADR-010.

Changed

• •Windows Update Hardware Driver & Firmware Preservation (unslop.ps1): Removed ExcludeWUDriversInQualityUpdate = 1 from debloat passes and added proactive removal of any legacy key so Windows Update hardware CVE patches and firmware updates flow freely (REG-02).

Added

• •Security & Privilege Boundary Unit Tests (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Added 3 new unit and AST invariant tests verifying Authenticode verification enforcement, reparse point detection and legacy driver policy cleanup, expanding the test suite to 25 passing assertions.

• •Pure-Batch Interactive Feature Toggles Sub-Menu (unslop.bat): Added Option [4] Interactive Toggles allowing users to configure custom combinations (Xbox, OneDrive, To-Do, Classic Menu, Dry-Run) with visual [ ON ] / [ OFF ] toggle states without typing CLI parameters.

• •Curated Launcher Presets (unslop.bat): Replaced rigid single-app options with curated profiles: [2] Gamer Preset (-KeepXbox) and [3] Productivity Preset (-KeepOneDrive -KeepTodos).

• •Dynamic Build Detection (unslop.ps1): Dynamically resolves the Windows 11 build tag (23H2, 24H2, 25H2) for runtime console banners and log file names instead of hardcoding 25h2.

Changed

• •Semantic Console Logging (unslop.ps1): Modernized terminal output with contextual -ForegroundColor formatting (Cyan headers, Green mutations, Yellow dry-run predictions, DarkGray skips, Red errors, Magenta preserved items) while maintaining clean timestamped disk logs.

• •AppX Package Skip Condensation (unslop.ps1): Collapsed 40+ repetitive SKIP: [App] (not installed) lines into a single aggregate summary line (SKIP: X bloatware packages not installed on system), drastically reducing terminal noise.

• •Dynamic & Honest Summary Reporting (unslop.ps1): Replaced static summary text with dynamic reporting that honors -KeepOneDrive, -KeepXbox and -KeepTodos parameter flags and explicitly marks -DryRun as preview-only with zero modifications written.

• •Streamlined Reboot Ergonomics (unslop.ps1): Clarified the interactive restart prompt text (Initiate 30-second restart countdown? [Y/n]) and configured -ForceRestart to execute immediate reboot without the 30-second delay.

• •Anti-Screen-Amnesia Protection (unslop.bat): Added an interactive post-audit prompt (Press [Enter] to return to the menu or [Q] to exit...) preventing cls from wiping dry-run inspection output.

Fixed

• •Placebo Logging Elimination (unslop.ps1): Replaced silent error suppression across helper functions (Set-RegDwordSafe, Set-SvcState, Set-TaskState, Set-ConsentCapability, Remove-StartupEntry) with try/catch error trapping that logs honest FAILED: feedback when operations encounter locked hives or permissions errors.

• •UAC Elevation Cancellation Handling (unslop.bat): Added explicit %errorlevel% checks after Start-Process ... -Verb RunAs to prevent the terminal window from silently vanishing when a user cancels or denies the UAC elevation prompt.

unslop-windows v1.1.0

Fixed

• •Windows PowerShell 5.1 Dual-Runtime Compatibility:

- Replaced Unicode em dashes ( - , byte 0x94) with standard hyphens in unslop.ps1 service descriptions, preventing premature string-quote termination under Windows-1252 ANSI codepages. - Simplified mock service status in tests/unslop.Tests.ps1 from .NET [System.ServiceProcess.ServiceControllerStatus] to string literals ("Running" / "Stopped"), preventing type resolution exceptions in environments where System.ServiceProcess is not preloaded.

• •Local Master Gate (Test-MasterGate.ps1): Refactored Pester 5 subprocess invocation to execute via parameterized script block instead of an escaped command string. Eliminates Windows PowerShell 5.1 command-line expression parsing error (At line:1 char:890) during automated CI execution.

• •CI/CD Summary Steps (lint.yml, release.yml): Replaced raw UTF-8 emoji literals in workflow summary blocks with standard ASCII GitHub Markdown shortcodes (:test_tube:, :bar_chart:, :shield:, :white_check_mark:, :x:). Resolves Windows PowerShell 5.1 ANSI codepage script parsing corruption on GitHub Actions runners.

Added

• •Automated Static Symmetry Verification via AST Parity Check (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Added 5 automated static AST parity tests using PowerShell's Abstract Syntax Tree parser ([System.Management.Automation.Language.Parser]::ParseFile) to enforce 100% Symmetrical Restoration Contract invariants:

1. Every Set-RegDwordSafe call defines both debloat and undo values. 2. Zero naked mutating cmdlets (Set-ItemProperty, Remove-ItemProperty, Set-Service, Stop-Service, Disable-ScheduledTask, Remove-AppxPackage) exist outside approved defensive helper functions. 3. Every Set-SvcState service call defines a valid restore startup type (Automatic or Manual). 4. Core engine helper functions maintain strict bidirectional symmetry. 5. Firewall hardening loop implements bidirectional rule transitions.

• •Native Pester Code Coverage & JaCoCo Reporting (scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1): Added -CodeCoveragePath parameter enabling native Pester 5 code coverage on unslop.ps1 with JaCoCo XML output and console coverage metric reporting.

• •GitHub Actions Coverage Summaries & Step Metrics (.github/workflows/lint.yml): Automated JaCoCo XML parsing in CI, rendering line and instruction code coverage tables directly into $env:GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY and archiving coverage artifacts.

• •Version-Controlled Static Analysis Ruleset (PSScriptAnalyzerSettings.psd1): Created repository-level analyzer configuration enforcing Error and Warning rules (PSAvoidUsingCmdletAliases, PSAvoidUsingEmptyCatchBlock, PSAvoidUsingPlainTextForPassword, PSAvoidUsingInvokeExpression, PSAvoidUsingUsernameAndPasswordParams) with dynamic binding in Test-MasterGate.ps1.

unslop-windows v1.0.4

Added

• •Pester 5 Unit & Mocking Test Suite (tests/unslop.Tests.ps1): Introduced 17 isolated unit and integration tests mocking native cmdlets (Set-ItemProperty, Remove-ItemProperty, Set-Service, Disable-ScheduledTask, Enable-ScheduledTask), parameter flags (-KeepXbox, -KeepOneDrive) and non-elevated exit contracts with 100% test pass rate.

• •Dedicated Dot-Source Test Guard (unslop.ps1): Added early top-level exit guard (if ($MyInvocation.InvocationName -eq '.') { return }) allowing the engine to export its helper functions into test harnesses without triggering elevation checks or executing debloat logic.

• •Dual PowerShell Runtime Matrix in CI (.github/workflows/lint.yml): Multi-runtime matrix testing across both pwsh (PowerShell 7 Core) and powershell (Windows PowerShell 5.1 Desktop) on windows-latest with automated Pester 5 module provisioning.

• •7-Pillar Local Master Quality Gate (scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1): Expanded the gate to 7 verification pillars by decoupling the batch launcher smoke test (cmd.exe /c ".\unslop.bat -DryRun") into dedicated Pillar 7, restoring sub-second (0.1s) execution speed to -Fast checks. Added -TestResultsPath for NUnit XML export.

• •Gated Production Releases (.github/workflows/release.yml): Release builds now strictly require the verify job to pass all 7 pillars (needs: verify) before packaging and publishing assets. Added tests/ directory to release archive distribution bundles.

• •CI Concurrency, Test Reporting & Step Summary Annotations: Added PR-aware concurrency: cancel-in-progress: true, zero-dependency Markdown step summaries ($env:GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY), inline GitHub Actions workflow annotations (::error) and artifact archiving via actions/upload-artifact@v4.

• •Architectural Decision Records (docs/decisions.md): Added ADR-008 (Pester 5 Unit Suite), ADR-009 (Dual PS Runtime Matrix), ADR-010 (Gated Releases), ADR-011 (Dedicated Batch Smoke Test) and ADR-012 (CI Concurrency & Annotations).

Fixed

• •Helper Function Parameter Binding & Switch Scope Collisions (unslop.ps1): Fixed PowerShell parameter binding collisions where -Undo was interpreted as a partial prefix match for -undoValue by adding explicit [switch]$Undo = $IsUndo, [switch]$DryRun = $IsDryRun switches across all helper functions.

unslop-windows v1.0.3

Fixed

• •UAC Elevation Batch Syntax Crash (unslop.bat): Resolved an issue where nested cmd.exe quote escaping inside delayed expansion caused \"'" was unexpected at this time. syntax errors, crashing unslop.bat immediately upon launch. Replaced with clean, native PowerShell process elevation (Start-Process -FilePath '%~f0' -Verb RunAs).

Added

• •Local Master Quality Gate (scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1): 5-pillar verification suite combining AST syntax parsing, PSScriptAnalyzer static analysis, CRLF audits, cmd.exe batch syntax validation, non-elevated -DryRun execution and symmetrical -Undo -DryRun restoration. Includes -Fast mode for rapid iteration.

• •Git Pre-Push Hook (.githooks/pre-push & scripts/Install-GitHooks.ps1): Automatic pre-push hook enforcing the 5-pillar quality gate prior to publishing to main or master.

• •System State Diagnostic Auditor (scripts/Measure-SystemState.ps1): Standalone tool measuring physical RAM, commit charge, process/thread counts, telemetry services and AppX packages. Supports -Snapshot, -Baseline, -Target and -ExportMarkdown (docs/benchmarks.md).

• •Cryptographic Release Hashes: Updated .github/workflows/release.yml to automatically generate and upload standard GNU-compatible SHA256SUMS.txt alongside release bundles.

• •CI Quality Gate Parity: Updated .github/workflows/lint.yml to execute Test-MasterGate.ps1 and Measure-SystemState.ps1 on windows-latest runners.

• •Engineering Standards & Architecture Specifications: Added developer specifications and architecture guidelines documenting Safe-Tier invariants, minimal-diff discipline and test verification requirements.

• •Architecture Decision Records (docs/decisions.md): Formal ledger tracking ADR-001 through ADR-007 covering safe-tier invariants, symmetry, non-elevated auditing, restart UX, quality gate, modular architecture standards and benchmarking.

• •Repository Governance: Added .gitattributes, .editorconfig, .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md and ROADMAP.md.

Security & Hardening

• •Batch Syntax Gate Hardening: Upgraded scripts/Test-MasterGate.ps1 to directly test cmd.exe /c "call unslop.bat -DryRun" in Step 3 to ensure batch syntax corruptions or quote-escaping bugs can never pass local pre-push or CI/CD gates again.

Quick Download

unslop-windows-v1.0.2.zip: Extract the zip and run unslop.bat as Administrator.

What's New in v1.0.2 (UX Overhaul)

In-Place Abort Shortcut (A): Replaced the cumbersome manual requirement of opening a separate terminal to run shutdown /a. Users can now simply tap the A key directly in the active countdown window to immediately cancel the scheduled restart. Instant Reboot Shortcut (R): Tapping R or pressing Enter during the 30-second countdown immediately triggers the system reboot on demand. Auto-Closing Launcher Window: Resolved an issue where unslop.bat remained paused at Press any key to continue . . . after a reboot was initiated. The launcher now detects exit code 100 and automatically closes the terminal window so Windows can restart without hanging.

• •Ctrl+C Abort Safeguard: Interrupting the countdown via Ctrl+C automatically triggers shutdown /a, ensuring no scheduled reboot timer is left active in the background.
