The longer part of the windows install process is not the installation. It's removing all the pre-installed bloatware, removing or disabling all the telemetry and other undesired features that are on by default.
- The start menu entries are stored in an encrypted file somewhere beneath a thousand different folders. But its possible to copy a cleaned start menu file and paste it in the correct directory in the default user folder to give new users an ad-free start menu.
- Just pirate LTSC.
  
  Just run Linux.
Doesn't Edge send all urls you visit to Microsoft through browser.events.data.msn.com? Microsoft has been tracking every site you visit since the start.
Well no shit.
I am shocked that anything regarding Microsoft and windows contains spyware.
What a weird way to spell "intentionally designed to track everything you do"
How surprising
