Use the **Features** and **Fixes** sections to install optional Windows components and run common repair tasks.

This page maps to the **Config** tab in WinUtil. Some actions complete immediately, while others may prompt, download files from Microsoft, or require a restart before the change is fully available.

## Windows Features

If a feature depends on Windows installation media or optional downloads, Windows may take longer to finish or request a reboot.

## Fixes

Use these one-click fixes for common system problems.

Use these when you have a specific issue to correct, not as a routine cleanup step.

## Legacy Windows Panels

## Remote Access

Enable an OpenSSH server on your Windows machine for remote access.

Only enable this if you intend to use remote shell access. After turning it on, verify your firewall rules and account permissions before exposing the machine to other devices.
