What? Where? How do you tell it not to advertise the new Edge or Candy Crush in the Start Menu during installation?

some privacy measures. For others, you still need to manually turn them off via gpedit or using a 3rd-party-tool like OO Shutup.

ShutUp10 is probably your best bet, or something like this: https://gist.github.com/alirobe/7f3b34ad89a159e6daa1
Edit: If you don't mind a little up front prep time, you could probably create install media for windows that would run one of the above programs immediately after finishing the install. If you have to do it multiple times quickly that may save some time.
The fact that these are required at all is ridiculous, and (part of) why I run Linux/BSD these days.
