Yes, there are some tools which can help, eg https://github.com/hellzerg/optimizer, also Windows itself has the GodMode, but it need somewhat more than this and only remove Skype, MS Store and Cortana.
I don't use Windows, but doesn't the LTSC and/or Enterprise edition come with better defaults?

Yeah, LTSC is basically how Windows should be, with less bloatware and security updates only.
I don't know, I've the Home edition and this came by default with a lot of crap and services to "improve the User experience" as they call it euphemistically and that can only be understood sarcastically.
