[SOLVED] Wanting To Reinstall Windows 10 On My Desktop And Make It A Media PC

Here is the plan I want to remove everything from my current desktop PC including the current windows 10 and then reinstall the windows with the best latest version of updates. I do not plan to place apps or programs on the desktop other then a media player like VLC and then I also plan to put a VLC media player skin on it as well hopefully. I also plan to make a few changes to the PC while it has internet.

I do not want it to get updated until new good updates that are actually needed are out. Otherwise I plan to keep it off the internet and only used to plan DVDs and media from USB flash drives mostly. I will put a wallpaper and screen saver and such but otherwise nothing much will really be stored on the desktop.

I do want to keep it as fast as possible so anything that is not needed that comes with the original download of the windows 10 when I reinstall the windows will be removed.

So here is what I want to know?

(1) When I reinstall windows what are some of the programs that comes with it that I can delete?
(2) What is the best way to upgrade the PC do I just reinstall windows and then let the windows fully install and then check for updates that are currently available? Or is there a way to get only the current best updates even if there a bit older? Plus should I check the manufactures website to find out what is all inside my desktop and check each thing for updates?
(3) What is the best way to reinstall windows 10 on my desktop so that I can keep it running smoothly without needing to keep updating from the internet since there wont be a internet connection to the desktop?
(4) IS there a way to stop annoying interruptions from occurring while on the desktop? Such as on the right hands side of the screen sometimes when a video starts playing there is a notification saying that a video has started playing even though I know it started because I started it myself. I want to stop all these kinds of notifications and popups and such. I just want to watch stuff without being annoyed by interruptions.

I hope this can make sense to some of you because I just want the desktop for media since it is not all that new anymore and I don't want to take it apart to upgrade things on it or take it to the shop to have things done to it. Its not worth it in my book its also 10 years old or so and I want to use it until I can't anymore.

So I hope this makes sense.

Thank You for reading this post and responding. Plus if there are any tutorials you can point me to that would be great thank you.

Plus if there is a way to install just the windows without the programs like word and icons like netflix and amazon and such that would be great if that is even possible. I don't know much about how the windows comes other then the windows that comes with apps and programs already installed.

Thank you again for reading this.
