Sort of; inside the WinLite10V5.1.zip from Sourceforge page of the project is a bunch of .inf files, I guess required to slipstream Windows 10.
i dont recommend such afterward tweaking. if you have time to waste try it on clean windows, NOT on a functional system, it may crash or react randomly. for a correct number - some apps can not be removed, no way - fifteen at all in c:\Windows\SystemApps privacy optimisations -> O&O shutup - but that has also disadvatages shown in red letters in some options WD vs Adware Code: REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender\MpEngine] "MpEnablePus"=dword:00000001 but be aware that WD will kick some downloads immediatly because it contains adware or adware downloader black viper services, better to screw manually - or never http://www.blackviper.com/service-configurations/black-vipers-windows-10-service-configurations/ at first sight the service list in this tweaker looks not bad, anyhow not used services and the default services dont eat cpu on current systems - older systems are idd affected but those should not run windows 10. a bit off, my win10lite is called enterprise ltsb - it has most of these tweaks
