    There are administration tools available for system deployment but they’re generally closed source and limited to the software selection available.

    Unsure about command line, but PC Decrapifier is useful for removing preloaded software.

    Ninite is useful to install software in batch.

    Ninite can also install Malwarebytes, which is quite useful.

    Between Windows Defender and Malwarebytes I generally don’t recommend anything else. And then Malwarebytes, which is extremely effective for free, is the only security suite worth paying for if you want to “set it and forget it”.

    On the Microsoft side of things, a great deal of software can be deployed via command line.

    It’s possible to build an offline installer for Office and Office 365 for example via the office deployment tool.

    Additionally, it looks like if you pay for Ninite Pro, it supports command line.
