    I don’t have onedrive, i’m not being hounded to set it up, i don’t see it. I don’t have copilot, I don’t have AI, hell I don’t even have any ads in my start menu.

    I’m not a Linux cultist but come on. You know it took a lot of configuration from the defaults to get there. Or are you running some special LTSC Win11?

      it literally took nothing. turned everything off on setup and that’s it. I don’t see one drive anywhere on the taskbar. there’s no pop ups, nothing. It is literally no where on my system. look for yourself:

        Are you in the US? Because there was no way to disable Onedrive during install when I last installed Win11 about a year ago. This is Win11 Pro.

          I’m in Canada. I’m on the preview build for September. I don’t have one drive, don’t have ads, don’t have copilot. so shrug Don’t know what to tell you but my windows experience thus far as been great.

            So you installed fresh from an ISO downloaded from Microsoft and it didn’t setup Onedrive during install? When was your download? As I said, mine was from around Sept from last year. Or did you use something like Rufus to make an install? MS has said they were doing some deshitification to handle the rampocalpse.

            I’d really like to be able to replicate your experience the next time I install Windows.

              I have a Microsoft Windows USB drive I bought a few years ago. it’s technically win 10 but when I installed that it put me on the first version of Win 11, and then just manually upgraded (took awhile) from there.
