How to disable all the bloatware non related to backup feature

Thread needs solution

I used to love it but sadly it's so full of bloatware now. I only need to backup my hard disk and nothing more.

I already have any anti-virus software which have all the features I need. I don't need your Cyber Protect or anti ransomware or whatever.

There are multiple drivers and Windows services installed by it. Is their a list of all the services and drivers I can disable?

Varun, welcome to these public User Forums.

Sorry but it is only possible to use the options in the ACPHO Protection panel to 'Turn off all Protection permanently' but even then the background services & processes will continue to run and are set such that they cannot be stopped without being automatically restarted.

There are other backup services that can be stopped by setting their Start up option to either Manual or Disabled, i.e. Sync Agent, Non Stop Backup, Mobile Backup.
