In the end I just uninstalled windows because every time I opened it, it tried installing all updates and I had to wait 20-30 mins to get to the desktop
And don't forget the ten different single app updaters because there's no centralized update system. There's just so much stuff running all the time.
Hey so I know you deleted the Edge shortcut from your desktop the last three times, but this time I think you'll really like it, so I added it back!
Tbh I prefer individual installation control and don’t really like the Linux store page method. I’d much rather install directly from the developer.
Winget, the M$ Store and the other PM I forgot the name of (not choco) exists. But it should one day completely replace .exe installers, they aren't even practical nor secure! There is no moderation like in an app store.
Yeah, I just ended up fully disabling windows updates. Still do most stuff on Linux but only boot windows for some specific games
I had no games that wouldn't run on linux so windows was just dead weight
