Upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10 - advice needed

[MrMarvelous]

Hi guys, planning on eventually nuking my PC and doing a fresh install to Windows 10. I've currently got my Windows 7 configured just the way I like it - absolute bare minimum running, just the bare essentials.

When I boot I only have 26 processes running, i'd like to configure Windows 10 the same if at all possible. Essentially what i'm after is the following:

• Crapware/bloatware uninstalled
• As many background processes disabled
• Any other tweaks to minimize RAM/CPU usage

I've heard that Windows 10 comes with a fair bit of bloat, are there any guides or software out there that will guide me in in the right direction?

Can't find much on it, could you link me to what you use?

What wrong with a bog-standard installation that basically everyone uses?

Quick update, tried both and my God LTSC is superior in basically every single way. Normal 10 is an total bloatfest, LTSC is the polar opposite. Thanks to the guy who reccomended it, without you I woudl have never even heard of this version!
