Tron is an Open Source script for advanced users that includes a collection of Windows batch files specifically to run tools for scanning, disinfection, and cleanup of your machine.
It works through multiple stages, each containing some known tools to help repair your Windows system that may be running poorly from bloat, infections, etc. Tron aims to automate a large percentage of the work required to disinfect, remove bloatware, and clean your PC. This is a must-have for anyone to keep on a USB flash drive and will prove extremely effective in repairing and rid of almost anything that makes your machine sick. It is not a quick fix, so expect to spend a little time using it, but your machine is worth it!
