How to reinstall Windows 10 WITH bloatware

Help

Hi all, I've decided I think my laptop would benefit from a refresh, so I was planning on just shipping off all my stuff and reinstalling Windows 10. I know a lot of people do this anyway to remove the manufacturer bloatware, but actually I kind of want to keep the ASUS USB Charger Plus, ASUS Driver Manager, Realtek Audio thing and a couple of other ones. I'm wondering if it's possible to refresh the Windows 10 install without losing these.

The reason I want to reinstall Windows is because my laptop (ASUS Zenbook UX301la) no longer recovers from sleep correctly (which could be a number of things) and occasionally blue screens from memory management problems. I don't know how to fix these things but I feel like a refreshed system might be a good place to start, but I don't want to lose all my files and preexisting software.

Thanks!
