Yeah, it’s called installing a Linux distro (lmao)
But seriously, you can remove a lot of the annoying stuff, like the “Bing!” integration, etc. through regedit commands in command prompt/windows terminal. However, a lot of it gets reinstalled or restored (Microsoft probably calls it “fixing” registry errors…). Plus, there’s an inherent level of “danger” involved when do regedits especially via terminal commands if you’re unfamiliar with what the commands do.
I just view Windows as a dead OS at this point. It hogs resources like crazy, installs tons of spyware and what I’d call malware, and hasn’t really added anything innovative in over a decade. Maybe longer. The windows experience has been basically the same since Windows 7 later updates until now, except it has gotten more cluttered, more ads, just more shit. I dunno what else to say beyond “Consider Linux.”

Kinda hard to change os on a work computer, though that’s not a technical problem but an interpersonal one
