adam_b,

Thanks to FOSS Devs, it’s possible to remove a lot of shit Microsoft throws at their users, Sophia Script, Optimizer, PrivateZilla, PrivacySexy… To name a few…

However, removing Microsoft Edge is still difficult, if not impossible, I used pirated iso’s ( for testing purposes ) that removes MS Edge, but once you update the system, everything crashes, AME is a good example, in order to keep the system stable, they disabled all updates for you…

I also noticed that the privacy invasive features I turn off, get turned on, on the next update, MS Edge does this with each update, so it leaves you with no choice but to just … Ignore its there, and not use it…

So my conclusion is, you can’t disbale anything unless Microsoft allows you to, yes you can have a less annoying experience with one of the tools I mentioned above, but the OS remains hostile against user choice.
