Winhance is een programma waarmee Windows kan worden aangepast. Zo kunnen ongewenste programma's en functionaliteit verwijderd en uitgeschakeld worden, zijn er aanpassingen die de prestaties verbeteren, en kan het uiterlijk worden kunnen aangepast. Daarnaast is het mogelijk om installatiemedia te maken waar alle gemaakte instellingen inzitten, zodat bij de volgende herinstallatie van Windows het meteen zoals gewenst is. Een zeer uitgebreide demo van het programma kan hier worden bekeken. Versie 26.04.17 van Winhance is uitgekomen en hier zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen in aangebracht:

Quick Actions and View menus
- Replaced the old dot indicators with modern pill-style InfoBadges that show Recommended, Default, New, and Preference status with icons and tooltips.
- Settings can now display multiple badges side by side (for example Recommended + New).
- Added a Preference badge for subjective or locale-dependent settings (regional, theme, sound, gaming, etc.) so they no longer suggest a single "Recommended" choice.

- Numeric range settings have one-click buttons to jump to the Recommended or Default value.

- Bulk apply all recommended settings or reset all settings to defaults in one click.
- Overview badge pills on feature cards summarize how many recommended changes are pending per section.
Bug Fixes
- Rewrote the technical details panel with dedicated sections per setting type instead of a flat list.

- Section headers, dependency names, and inline GUIDs are now localized.
Improvements
- Fixed the app hanging on startup during software detection.
- Edge removal no longer creates a broken MSEdgeHTM registry key, and the protocol redirect has been improved to prevent broken file associations.

- Background App Permissions converted to a Selection control with corrected registry values.
- Fixed toggle state detection for binary registry values and for settings whose registry keys do not exist.
- Fixed badge rendering and toggle state for inverted-policy settings.
- WIMUtil XML card logo is now theme-aware.
