We've released SysHardener v2.0.

It is now part of Appsvoid software applications and it runs in 30-days free trial.

It has been rewritten from scratch and has a lot of improvements:

You can now apply or restore a single selected rule by right-click on the rule and then click on "Apply This" or "Restore This" (very useful). It now fully supports Windows 11, we improved support with Windows 10, it has many new up-to-date OS hardening tweaks and Windows Firewall rules, you can search for a rule via the search box, it has two pre-defined profiles (Home User and Office Business User), we added important privacy-related rules, many new file types can now be unassociated making them mostly harmless for the end user, we updated the command-line parameters available, and much much more.

We've released SysHardener v2.1:

Here is what's new:
 
[14-Sep-2022] - v2.1.0.0

+ Added new Windows security tweaks
+ Disabled some tweaks on the Home User profile
+ Improved installer/uninstaller script
+ Minor fixes and optimizations

We've added new firewall rules and new options to unassociate more file types (e.g .msi, .msp, .vhd, etc).

The Core Isolation, LSP Protection and Svchost.exe Mitigation options are now unchecked on Home User profile (they may create issues with Steam games and other security software, so we made them optional and not auto-checked on Home User profile).

All tweaks can be restored to their factory-default values, same goes for OneDrive and Windows Apps (if you select to restore them they will be re-installed).

All tweaks work fine with latest Windows 11 22H2.

In this new version the option to show hidden and system files and the option to disable autoplay for any drive are unchecked in both Home and Business profile.

We received some emails about this suggestion so we decided to uncheck them in both profiles.
