"Take Control."
Why i made Kaspar
Windows has always had its quirks, but at some point it crossed a line. Ads in the Start menu. Bing opening when you just wanted to launch an app and a right-click menu that hides half its options behind an extra click. Those arent just some "niche" nerdy forgotten functions, those are everyday used features. Microsoft is doing anything but benefiting the user like wdym i need an internet connection just to install the OS. None of this was asked for. And they keep on pushing, doubling down and i am here to change that.
Meet Kaspar.
KASPAR started as a personal collection. Fixes written out of frustration, obscure registry tweaks only maniacs remember.. Over time, that collection of tweaks I knew by heart grew into something worth sharing, so I turned them into scripts you can run yourself. Every script here solves a real problem that Microsoft either wont fix or keeps pushing back.
How it works
Most of what KASPAR does comes down to the Windows Registry it is a massive settings database that Windows reads constantly. The vast majority of tweaks applied here are settings that already exist inside Windows. Microsoft just doesn't give you a button for them. KASPAR does.
Scripts are written in Python using the WinReg library. They are then
compiled into standalone .exe files, so you don't need Python (or any of the dependencies)
installed to run them.
Every script is tested thoroughly, and almost all of them support reverting their changes back, so nothing is permanent.
Before running anything you should use RestorePoint.py to create a system snapshot first.
KASPAR Launcher [new]
Running individual scripts is fine, but annoying and unprofessional.
KASPAR now comes with a GUI app that lets you pick and run scripts.
