This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.

    Also not an issue when you disable this in windows.

    How do you like having to opt out of everything, repeatedly?

      I wouldn’t know how that feels. Did it once and haven’t had an issue since.

      I think some people here like to shit on windows just to shit on windows and haven’t actually used win11

        Maybe I’ll get a better response to my question here, since you seem to view windows 11 positively and have a positive vote score, so others who are seeing these comments might feel the same.

        Are there any reasons other than the sunsetting of win 10 or the relative newness of 11 to want to use Windows 11?

        The only thing that stood out in the other thread where I asked this was support for multiple virtual desktops.

          Unfortunately, I don’t have a good answer for you.

          I built a new Pc last year and decided to put win11 on it to judge the OS for myself. In all reality, it doesn’t feel much different than win10. Boot up is fast, startup is fast, everything just works.

          Sorry I can’t provide more info.

          If there is an option to turn it off, I haven’t found it. It certainly isn’t obvious.

          Apparently that makes me a complete idiot according to the person you’re talking to.

          I apologize for being too stupid to know every way to configure Windows 10, an OS I rarely use.

            As far as I know, it doesn’t exist. But I’m more than willing to be proven wrong and have someone tell us exactly how it’s done.

              Took 2 seconds to Google this. Don’t quite remember if this is the setting I flipped ages ago to disable it on both my home and work PCs but I don’t get this spam and did something that was essentially this simple to do to get it that way.

                  As I said:

                  I flipped ages ago to disable it on both my home and work PCs but I don’t get this spam

                  Ii have not once ever experienced this or any other setting reverting to something else across 5 different win10 devices

                  Fuck Windows, it sucks in so many ways, but idk what some of these people are doing to have settings change behind their backs like they claim happens.

              Not sure what point you are trying to make here.

              I’m not having any computer problems.

                You’re not acknowledging the issue of close source OS’s that nag you with unwanted notifications.

                  Why would I acknowledge an issue that doesn’t exist for me?

                  You are barking up the wrong tree here bud. I use the right tool for the job, for me that means windows for my personal machine, Linux for work or special purpose machines. And Mac to write code.

        I’ve used Windows 11 a lot

        I’ve made all the changes

        Ultimately, switching to Linux is what it took to get rid of the garbage, and didn’t have to disable anything on the new system.

        Can we not defend this bullshit, please? Or dismiss it as not that bad? It’s bad. Really bad. Stop pretending it’s okay because you can go through a dozen settings, half a dozen registry hacks, and a handful of third party programs to make the system work almost as well as it did a decade ago.
