I found this script and thought it would be the ideal way to set up my computer with Visual Studio to do some coding. It was not clear by running the full script a lot of Windows 10 apps would be uninstalled permanently (e.g Minecraft, Xbox app). Is there as simple script to reinstall these or a way to use this script to reinstall them?

I agree, I fall to that script from Microsoft documentation, I thought it was safe and only did what it said, install "Full Desktop App" env.
This is a damn **** script (sorry), but I just saw it uninstalling a lot of my app and got a notification about UAC being disabled.

That is absolutely not acceptable, will never trust Microsoft documentation external links anymore (btw, came from https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/introduction-to-windows10-dev/2-installing-tools-automatically)

Are you seriously, at Microsoft messing up with my operational security with your auto install tools script?

Waste my time, now I need to review any actions performed by the script.
