A proper install of Windows 11 with no connection to a Microsoft Account, a taskbar setting change to shift the Start button to the left side where it should be, and a whole bunch of shutting stuff off in Privacy settings and in Edge and it will look and work like Windows 10.
Things are changing. Windows abandoning being a stand alone OS and becoming a service only is getting closer. For now, Win 11 is something you should already be using or you should be making the switch before the support for 10 begins to expire late next year.
Much tougher decisions are coming in the versions soon after 11 at the rate things are going, but we aren't there quite yet. The frog boils slowly.
You will not convince me that microshaft is run for any other reason than grabbing data to sell it and that they will make it as difficult as possible to use it as a system and as hard as possible to block the data leaks as well as block the backdoors.
After Win7 (actually, truly, after XP, Michroshaft have screwed the pooch royally and you will never convince me otherwise. I have not only experience of the systems, but also a close friend who has to deal with this BS on a daily basis as a high level tech and even he is appalled (putting it mildly) with the state of michroshaft products and refuses to go near W10 or W11.
You may well be happy with it, but I REFUSE to allow microshaft bloated spyware of Win10 or Win11 onto any of my PCs or laptops.
Sorry, but those systems are a useless POS taking up way to much HDD space with far too many backdoors and data breaches direct to microshaft.
