Have to use Windows for work (I’ve asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification… That’s clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it

    I use windows 11 pro, and I don’t see any of these ads anywhere ever. Is that something the home versions only do? Did I turn off some setting proactively at setup that prevents the ads?

      I have seen it om our company pro ;nstall before, and also not, so maybe it is group policy controlled

      I got that on a machine that had 11 Enterprise on it. It was a automatic upgrade through M365 licensing, so that’s probably why it still happened, but it is ridiculous. Ever time I turn around there is a new policy I have to enforce to remove consumer ads from a product listed as Professional or Enterprise.
