    Jokes on them, my win10 setup won’t even update anymore. Can’t be bothered to do a reinstall.

      I reinstalled win10 yesterday on a laptop that iam selling. The windows app store doesn’t work out of the box anymore. Just errorcodes. Its such a joke.

      I’m in the same boat. My copy can’t see the bootloader, even though it’s booting >.<

      Linux is coming, as soon as I can be bothered

    I actively hate co-pilot on my work computer. I really don’t want it doing the same stuff Cortana did. Popping up when I didn’t need or ask for it. I just want to search. Leave me alone.

    The negative reaction to this kind of thing baffles me. I see it as a neat new feature that’ll make my life easier. But if for whatever reason you don’t like it… don’t use it. No biggie.

      We remember Cortana. Hard to not think about it and not expect a similar quality of implementation.

      Even today while disabled I continue to open Cortana by mistake… Which won’t work since it’s disabled…

      There are many things on Windows people don’t like: Preinstalled bloatware, Edge, Microsoft spyware. As you simply cannot disable them under Windows, the only way not to use them is to upgrade to Linux, it seems.

      If it follows the same pattern for all MS features, there will be a check box to turn it off, but it will be on by default. So if you don’t like it, turn it off and save your outrage, like me, for the absence of a vertical taskbar in Windows 11.

          There are some dark patterns in the setup experience that might cause that.

          Turn off the “Show me the Windows welcome experience after updates…” and the “Suggest ways I can finish setting up…” options in settings.

          I bet if you’re having preferences change on you, it’s because you’re clicking ok or next without reading during these nag screens.

      As long as it’s not running in the background using a single bit of my RAM then I’m fine with it tbh.
