  So I had similar concerns regarding Windows 11, but I sat down, learned how to clean it up, and put a Creative Commons open source guide for others to follow. I knew many other reluctant friends, and with my guide they seem to have no real remaining complaints.

  It covers both the initial installation, as well as all my post-install recommendations. It eliminates I believe all the tracking, adware, suggestions, Cortana, feeding the Bing/ChatGPT machine, telemetry, etc. Absolutely nothing breaks. I’ve had some seniors at some very prolific companies vet the guide by using it themselves — should be straightforward and to-the-click/keystroke.

  If there’s any bugbears, create an issue. I’ll be responding to them every few weeks, and I try to update the release every 3 months.

  I’ve put a text-based guide out on GitHub for people to follow. It covers both the initial installation, as well as all my post-install recommendations.

  I went with just text, point-and-click directions initially so people can at least intuit how they’d reverse any changes.

  The overwhelming majority of things can be done via the Settings app UI. Some are Local Group Policy settings. There’s a few PowerShell script commands to remove pre-installed packages. There’s only 2 or 3 registry tweaks.
