I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.

Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a “Skip”/“Don’t remind me again”. Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I’d expect not to be bothered again. It’s really a built in ad more then anything.

    Those people would not fare well installing Windows either. 99% of users have it done for them.

    Also, if you compare apples for apples and look at PCs with Linux preinstalled (Dell does it, among others), Linux doesn’t have these problems.

    Come to think of it, it’s the dead opposite. I have a heap of machines happily running Linux at home that Windows 11 will straight-up refuse to install on.
