I’ve disabled windows update completely so I can pick and manually dl updates. Never going to put that recall shit on my pc.

How’d you do that? I’ve made registry tweaks, group policy tweaks, etc and my windows machine still eventually hits a limit where it forces updates around the 12 week mark. Granted it’s still longer than before, it isn’t completely disabled.

It was a combination of things between policies and taking over folder and file permissions. I can look up the specifics I used if you are looking to replicate it. It’s a bitch to undo unless you write down everything you change.

At that point it’s easier to install Linux.

I run Linux too, but I have to use windows for some contract jobs.

Not all computers need to tell time, just uninstall clock.exe.
