I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.

Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a "Skip"/"Don't remind me again". Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I'd expect not to be bothered again. It's really a built in ad more then anything.

That pops up on every feature update on win11. But you're on the preview channel which is known to push and test experimental features. I'd suggest you unenroll your device if stuff like more ads for 365 or missing features for testing purposes bug you. Microsoft even regularly roll out one feature for a percentage of testers and take it away from the rest, just to see what happens.

The only thing I can think of is having it selected to automatically install the latest updates, I haven't signed up or enabled anything else. Is that why its preview?

Then you’re either not remembering or you aren’t in it

Either way I’ve had this screen pop up for me too a couple times after updating but they never “added” anything, I don’t see them adding anything here either - just wanted to make that distinction to be fair to MS for the sake of convo only (not gonna forget the bullshit about that Sting concert.)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I understand, the only options I see is added from update or triggered by the update as I've never gotten this window before and it restarted to this screen like I had to do it.

Yeah, I understand just wanted to make sure people understood this wasn’t something new, and that this wasn’t necessarily getting worse. That’d put out false beliefs, which, end up muddying the real problems that windows does have

Completely agree.
