Post-Installation

What to do immediately after deploying JarvisOS.

Post-Installation Checklist

The AME Wizard has finished. Your system is now clean, private, and developer-ready. A few steps remain to bring it to full operational state.

---

1. Install Hardware Drivers

Windows Update is suppressed by default. Install your primary drivers directly from manufacturers — not from Windows Update, which bundles telemetry-laden OEM suites.

Hardware	Where to Get Drivers
NVIDIA GPU	nvidia.com — use NVCleanstall to strip telemetry from the installer
AMD GPU	amd.com — use Radeon Software Slimmer for a clean install
Intel GPU	intel.com/support
Chipset (AMD/Intel)	Direct from AMD or Intel support pages
Network / Audio	Bare INF drivers preferred — avoid OEM control panel suites

Before starting the JarvisOS installation, save your essential networking drivers to a USB drive. You will need them if your NIC is not natively recognized.

2. Manage Windows Updates

JarvisOS suppresses automatic Windows Updates to prevent Microsoft from reinstalling removed components or forcing unwanted driver updates.

Use the AtlasOS Toolbox (installed in C:\Program Files\JarvisOS Tools and on your Desktop):

1. Open AtlasOS Toolbox from the desktop shortcut
2. Navigate to Windows Update
3. Toggle updates ON
4. Install security patches
5. Toggle updates OFF when done

Leaving Windows Update permanently enabled will eventually cause the OS to attempt repair of mitigated components. Patch, then disable.

3. Set Up Your Browser

Your selected browser is installed. First-launch setup:

Brave

Enable Brave Shields on all sites. Go to brave://settings/shields and set default to Aggressive. Import bookmarks from your old browser if needed.

LibreWolf

LibreWolf ships with uBlock Origin pre-installed. Go to about:preferences#privacy and verify Enhanced Tracking Protection is set to Strict.

Zen Browser

Firefox-based, privacy-first. Go to about:preferences#privacy and review the tracking protection settings. uBlock Origin can be installed from addons.mozilla.org.

4. Explore Your Maintenance Tools

JarvisOS installs four maintenance tools by default:

Privacy+ Settings

CLI tool for toggling OS-level privacy settings. Run ame-settings-cli --help from an elevated terminal to see all available toggles.

App Fetch

Sideload UWP apps without the Microsoft Store. Run app-fetch install <PackageID> to install any app from its source.

AtlasOS Toolbox

80+ system toggles in a GUI. Manage power plans, update settings, network tweaks, and more. Desktop shortcut created automatically.

Revision Tool

ReviOS-compatible system maintenance utility. Use it for cleanup tasks and configuration resets when needed.

5. Verify Developer Tools

If you selected Git, VS Code, and Node.js during installation, verify them:

git --version
code --version
node --version
npm --version

WSL2 should be active. Verify:

wsl --list --verbose

If WSL2 isn’t showing a distro, install one:

wsl --install -d Ubuntu

Your system is ready. Intelligence. Speed. Control.
