I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.

Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a “Skip”/“Don’t remind me again”. Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I’d expect not to be bothered again. It’s really a built in ad more then anything.

    This sucks, I remember a year or two ago, windows 10 was pushing similar things. My only question is what happens when you don’t have internet?(worst case scenario.) I had windows 10 when I was in college, but as soon I finished, I did install fedora as dual boot, and since then I proudly use fedora every day, switched to windows only 1-2 in total.

    The most common problem I had was program and app availability. Could I do what I do every day with Windows? The answer was yes. Install and try even if its dual boot, slowly slowly you will get used to it.

      If you don’t have internet, you’re never getting updates in the first place! Unless you mean, you updated, are sitting at this screen, THEN lose your network connection.
