Pays 100$ for windows 11 pro expecting to not see targeted advertising.
“Play Candy Crush on the Windows App Store Now!” ad baked into the Lock Screen ffs why
Buy an OEM key next time, I've never spent more than 20 bucks for Pro.
I'm sure this is intended to block software thst could do things like remove Copilot and all the OS level advertising they keep populating windows with.
There's a literal native toggle to disable Copilot so that'd be really weird.
There's a toggle

There's a toggle but we moved it deep into a sub menu
Becomes
If you toggle it off it also breaks a lot of other things you want to have
Becomes
Toggle it off if you want but it's still going to run in the background
Until the EU sues and forces them to have an option to actually remove it.
Glad I have no idea what this is. Thanks Proton
What does Proton have to to with this?
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton
Steam on Linux uses Proton to play Windows games. Ain't perfect, but perfect enough I don't need windows anymore.
I tried the Official Windows 11 start menu. I had disabled showing "recommended apps" in the settings. This hid the icons, but not the section. So, whenever I opened the start menu, the entire bottom half was a section that said "enable recommended apps to show them here."
That's when I installed Start11 (I also bought StartAllBack, but I preferred Start11) and never looked back.
At this point I've just abandoned the start menu all together. PowerToys Run has effectively become how I launch anything that isn't on the taskbar, tied to one of the buttons on my mouse or a keyboard shortcut. Everything search on a different shortcut replaces the built-in search.
Of course that's just how I cope on my mandatory-Windows 11 work laptop. At home (and I know this is almost a meme at this point), I'm slowly getting myself accustomed to Linux alongside Windows 10 until that's no longer feasible.
So it's just an added feature of StartAllBack - no more updating!
Meh, I don't care, I'd much rather have startallback than updates as it's the only thing that makes that windows box usable.
This isn't normal Windows Updates. These are warnings for OS upgrades as Windows Insiders upgrade to new preview builds of the OS.
i know you guys always hate to hear this, but this problem wont go away unless you can move to linux
WTF is the screen scaling set to on that laptop?
100% but 3840x2160 and small taskbar icons?
