    While likely, windows is beginning to look like adware. The popups after logins and others are engineered (deceptively IMO), to lead you into more MSFT products. They intentionally hide or obscure anything, but the outcome they want sometimes.

      Funny, I hear this all the time but never see it.

      Then again, I use Windows Pro only. Never use Windows home. Paying for pro is worth it.

      And don’t use One Drive. Turn that off from the start.

        Switched to linux completely after the metro ui shitshow. The only time I get the microsoft experience now is when I check out WSL.
