The world is up-in-arms over Windows Recall, but why? It stems from Microsoft's seeming lack of care for Windows and its users.

    To help anyone dealing with Ms crap -

    get Win10 LTSC. It gets updates 2x/year, has very minimal bloat. (Or Win11 LTSC if that’s what you want).

    Then get O&O Shutup to reduce bloat even more.

    And you can permanently license it using Microsoft’s own scripts.

    Scripts on Gituub.

    There are some tools to ensure Recall is fully un-installed and blocked. Group Policy will definitely prevent it from ever running, and LTSC is a Pro version, so Group Policy functions properly.

          Do you have examples of issues? The only hardware incompatibilities I’ve ever experienced were with my VR headset.
