TechnoMage2021, Wow, that's cool! I didn't know that such a thing as Micro 11 existed. That's very interesting (I used to be a techie [not with PCs] although I am in my 70s now and have few brain cells still firing).For years, I've had one fix or another for any new PC that has gotten messed up.
But one thing remains: Windows as it comes first from MS and then from the PC manufacturer, is loaded with Bloatware, stipulations, and just a lot of stuff designed to tie you to Mother Microsoft's apron strings.
Give me a brand new PC, laptop or desktop, and I'll dig out my USB Flash Drive, with the latest After Market Windows on it, and do a CLEAN Install.
Today, my favorite OS is Windows "Micro 11", Pro/64. It's small, it's fast, and it has ZERO MS BS. And, best of all, it doesn't come from Microsoft.
I just installed that OS on to an HP Envy Sleekbook, that came to me as an inoperative shell. It had no HD, only 4GB of ram, and a dead main battery and CMOS Battery.
Now, with new batteries, a new Crucial 120GB SSD, and "Micro 11" installed, it's a great running little PC.
My total investment in this little laptop, is less than $100. (NO licenses, keys or passwords)
