Chris Titus Tech's Windows Utility has evolved over six years with 200+ contributors and 30+ million runs. The 2026 version features four main tabs: Install (for managing software via Winget/Chocolatey), Tweaks (standard and advanced system optimizations with restore points), Config (legacy control panels and troubleshooting tools), and Updates (granular control over Windows updates). The MicroWin ISO creation feature has been forked into a separate project for better maintainability. A new offline .NET implementation written in F# is in development to replace the PowerShell-based utility, offering faster performance while maintaining the same functionality.
