@SomeGadgetGuy As a rule working in Enterprise IT, I'd always wipe any pc we bought and installed a clean stock Windows iso.

No OEM bloat, you just need to get the right drivers but in most cases Windows update would find them.

@thinker this whole debacle did teach me how to dump drivers in Windows. So SOME good came from that 👍

@SomeGadgetGuy Sometimes I wonder whether there are companies who pre-loaded their hardware with switches or similar solution instead of software/malware. I guess, in the future the trust in OEM, supply chain and retailer will play important role.

@sslaia it's certainly playing out here.
