Bat File to Manage Windows (help needed)

[Windows User]

I am working on a bat file to change important windows settings for me so that i dont have to manually do it.
Next time when reinstalling windows i want to execute a single bat-file that will handle things for me.
Probably i will still have to change a few settings manually but it should be reduced to a minimum.

I want to learn how to change the following settings via bat/cmd

• Taking Ownership or full-control-permissions of C:\Drive (already have a bat-file for that)
• Change DNS server                                                           (already have a bat-file for that)
• delete and disable preinstalled-bloatware                          (already have a bat-file for that)
• disable all unnecessary services                                       (already have a bat-file for that)
• disable telemtry and other shady features                         (O&Oshutup10 will do that for me)
• File Explorer, change fast-access to This PC
• Remove the checkmark from this setting: hide files and file extensions for known file types
• Use the maximum cursor-blink-rate for mouse and keyboard
• Import a Firewall Rule via command
• Under Powerplan Settings disable hybernate, and set screen-timeout to 15 minutes
• Under msconfig enable all cpu cores for boot/power-on
• disable locking function that appears when pressing shift 5 times in a short amount of time
• optimise hard drive once when executing this bat-file
• create a desktop shortcut for C:\Users\User\AppData and C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Temp
• Under Optionalfeatures disable internet explorer 11
• Under Optionalfeatures enable netframework 3.5 and directplay+legacy components
• import specific registry keys including sub-keys and dword32bitvalue or create them if needed

Thanks for helping!

Update:

• enable msconfig-all-cpu-cores on system boot
• export/import nvidia controlpanel settings  or registry
• create a desktop shortcut for C:\Users\User\AppData
• disable automatic updates from SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe > Hardware
• disable remote access SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe > Remote
• if not, how can i import/export registry keys including sub-keys and dword32bit-value?
• import-export specific task-scheduler-tasks
• for example: Task-Scheduler > Microsoft > Windows > deactivate ALL triggers for Application Experience
• import-export, group policy editor > administrative templates > windows components > deactivate Biometry, Datacolletion

If you are working with the same build, why not just set the registry up as you want and make a backup copy of the registry and after a new clean build copy over the backed up registry stomping out the default. Then the batch stuff can be just  forcing the registry overwrite and then copying of shortcuts etc.

➤ Having problems with exporting reg keys:
reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options Image File Execution Options.reg
reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Multimedia\SystemProfile SystemProfile.reg
Error Invalid Syntax



➤ When i edit the below settings, is there a reg-key that will change it's value at the same time?
➤ In that case i can export the reg-keys. If not, is there a cmd-command to turn them on or off?
SystemProperties (SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe)
  > Hardware > Device Settings > Device Installation Settings > Automatic Updates > Off
  > Remote > Allow remote support on this computer > Off

For example i already found a working command on how to disable internet-explorer-11

Can anyone please share the command to enable netframework 3.5 and directplay including the sub-option legacy components?
