In my experience, the easiest way to get rid of bloatware junk is to use Universal Android Debloater. This gives you a GUI/wizard to execute the ADB commands. Here is an introduction (in German): Google-Apps und weitere Bloatware loswerden mit dem "Universal Android Debloater Next Generation"
I have tried this and it is really good. However, I'm still going to have to find all the shitty apps and whatnot that it missed and delete them. Also, it will not remove the link to Windows. All that has to be done through adb.
