minus-squareBearOfaTime@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·7 months agoTo help anyone dealing with Ms crap - get Win10 LTSC. It gets updates 2x/year, has very minimal bloat. (Or Win11 LTSC if that’s what you want). Then get O&O Shutup to reduce bloat even more. And you can permanently license it using Microsoft’s own scripts. Scripts on Gituub. There are some tools to ensure Recall is fully un-installed and blocked. Group Policy will definitely prevent it from ever running, and LTSC is a Pro version, so Group Policy functions properly.
