      I liked their 2010 edition Word, and I still have the install disc for it.

Nah, uninstall, and replace with something I don't have to pay more money for. lol

      Switch, (or try out) Linux Mint. The desktop will be simple with it's own style of start button. If you only use a Browser, check mail and watch RUclipss; then you have nothing to loose, and you will be well protected! Not to mention all those windoz updates! AND, it's Free for life. And NO Ads! People will tell you it's hard to learn. NO TRUE! It's no different then using windoz. There's NO learning curve. If you use microshaft word, then Libre comes free with Linux.

    As usual and awesome video from you. I think I've found all Windows 10 ads and other spy stuff from Microsoft which are available to be switched off within Window 10's various option settings. However it would still be nice with a video from you with more indepth stuff, in case I missed something. They have started to add the Windows Spotlight and stuff into Windows 10 as well. Clearly those things are important for Windows to infect veryone with, even if they said Windows 10 will only get security updates long ago. It seems to be on a machine to machine roll out. Both my Windows 10 PC's have the same Windows updates (same win version number), still on one it shows spotlight in the background options, on the the other it is still not rolled out and that option is not visble in the scroll down menu in background.

    The best way to manage adds in your life is disable every add you possibly can but on all the ones that do make there way into your Head either by a billboard or a jingle on the Radio and actually manage to convince you that is something you need, always by an alternative to one that was advertised by a different Brand ect. Don't reward them, ever 💪

    Not sure if you've done it, apologies if you have (and point me in the right direction, please), but have you found any way to stop MS continually trying to switch Mail to Outlook? Even if you delete it, it will still download it again! Also, I have Outlook (full, licenced version), so why does it keep trying to add this new one, as well?

    Ok Brian this is a really helpful tutorial mate but on in my Setting/Personalisation I have more settings within that I do not know what to do with for example there is a setting that says "Show related notifications occasionally in Start". Now I suspect that you are showing an install that is not coupled with a Microsoft account and my current install is - so what do I do about that? The other thing is I do not have Copilot in my taskbar options setting and I am running the latest version of Windows 11Pro? Otherwise mate a really good tutorial easy to follow well at snails pace for me LOL!!. The thing that I find concerning is the absolute and obscene amount of data they collect and it really is against one's right to privacy eh? Oh thanks for the reminder about Revo I had totally forgotten about it after using it back n the day.

  • @frankhellman6879
    @frankhellman6879 Месяц назад +1

    The idea of ad-support is supposed to offset the full price of software and/or allow 'free' versions. Ad-support in apps makes sense, because it's either free or practically free. But we pay the full price of Windows on every new machine that has it. This is the same as double taxation (they probably did learn it from government). What if all high cost software starts coming with ads in every menu, on every screen? Will we pay full price then too?
    I'm afraid that all these turn-them-off option buttons will either be eliminated/locked in this or future rollouts of security updates, or Windows will reset them in the registry at each startup. It's obvious Microsoft intends to gradually keep the average user from modifying the registry for "security reasons", by either keeping Windows UI mod software from working or not permitting certain registry changes down the line. Softly, softly, catchee monkey!
    If I want! a locked-down OS, I'll get an Apple!
    PS - In the meantime, maybe a .reg file that contains all the changes you just showed for Windows. Better yet, a startup folder run file that does it. 🤗 Can't... let... them... win...

    Would be nice to get rid of ads in the 'new Outlook' that MS is trying to force on us as replacement for Windows mail. MS wants us to get Office 356 (which is definitely not free) to get rid of those ads, which should not be present in an e-mail program to begin with.
