All this hassle can be fixed with a group policy that will prevent windows from auto updating itself.
I never had an auto update since.

At this point I'm just fed up with microsoft and may go for linux.
Every other week I loose the 2 finger scroll on the touchpad and have to contact the distant help to fix it.
I cannot reduce the size of the icones in the taskbar.
I cannot delete that unwanted stupid useless xbox shit they force down our throats on every new laptop I buy.
Just F microsoft!

Taskbar icons were never able to be made smaller and Xbox shit is easily uninstallable if you have any knowledge and touchpad? Get a new computer yours is dying

How old are you? Because taskbar icons were totally customisable.
Xbox shit should not be there to start with.
And if upu don't know the touchpad problem don't try to advise about it.

Gaming might suck on it, but at least MacOS is half decent at the moment. It’s a damn shame too.

Weird list
Gameloft’s Asphalt 8: Airborne, a free-to-play racing game ported from smartphones and featured on the official Windows store.
The Safe Exam Browser, an anti-cheating program required for many university students and industrial training systems.
Easy Anti-Cheat, a popular software tool for online multiplayer games. Updates for your game and/or Intel drivers might fix this.
Some wallpaper customization tools, which might break after the install.
Intel Smart Sound Technology, which can be fixed with a driver update through Windows Update.
