Comment on Windows 11 just lost 5% market share in two months despite Windows 10 losing support.

That or go with Linux.

I’ve found that if you install a fresh copy of W10 (vm) and give it internet acces, it’ll install copilot very quickly and it doesn’t ask at all. No choice involved whatsoever.

That’s just a no go for me. Because you already know this thing is going to keep making choices for you and working against you in the process.

Oh yeah, I went Linux a year ago and loving it. But sometimes, I just need to use Windows for certain things so I thought I’d ask here. Thanks!

I suggest you check out this: github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil

It is a script to remove a bunch of Microslop… I’m betting on Microsoft re-enabling it unannounced after an update though.

But I’m with you on the Linux bit…

…I use Arch btw…

  I’ve ditched Windows completely save a vm for that one piece of hardware that’s stubborn. (Once I have the money I’ll look elsewhere friggin line6 helix)

    Fair. Technically I’m running Windows in a container… But technically that is also a vm.
    
    That is for this neat remote app fella: github.com/winapps-org/winapps
    
    Makes it look like Windows applications run on Linux without using full rdp.
