Ever since the latest cumulative Windows 10 update, the start menu takes like 2 seconds to open up. This is clearly some botnet shit sending statistics to Microsoft's servers about how I use my start menu.

Recommend a less cucked OS please (preferably Linux and not Gentoo)

Fedora

Will look into this. Need to be able to run Wine or some translation layer for Ableton as I do a lot of work in audio. Is there any alternatives to lightroom in Linux?

Get classic shell or buy a proper PC.

>takes 2 seconds to open up
You just have a shitty computer. Mine don't even take a fraction of a second

>950 Pro NVMe SSD
>Core i7-6700k
>16GB DDR4-2400

Just had the update on my PC and my lappy (XPS 15) and they're experiencing the same issue.

Just use Classic Shell. I mean it's not going to solve Window's horrific telemetry spying but at least you will have a functional Start Menu.

Fucking thanks.

There's also winworldpc.com/product/windows-nt-40

Open Wireshark
Open menu
See what happens

No problem you ungrateful turd

Contacts a microsoft search server everytime i open up my menu

fucking why

You probably have cortana set to search the web too which uses bing

Cortana is disabled, unless that's the issue.

You can't disable her

Linux is a kernel and Gentoo is a distribution, faggot.

No issue on my end boss.
Try using fiddler and see what's being sent out when you open it.

Well, she isn't functional at least. My search window doesn't pop up. Maybe it's a timeout issue.

>My search window doesn't pop up
Sounds like you killed her completely, did you change the name of her folder and then end her in task manager by any chance?

Debian + GNOME 3

It just werks

Yeah she's not even running in the background or anything.

Well that explains why your start takes so long to load, it tries to start up Cortana so you could use the search but it fails and then re-opens without it.

well FUCK

Manjaro werks out of the box that comes preinstalled with anything you will ever need
out of the box (expect wine: run yaourt -S wine in terminal)

windows 7
Xubuntu

But also if you go to lunix. yo wont have that software...

alternati ves for audio and steam is on it. the the rest ?

You should really try Enterprise LTSB

it comes without cortana period edge and all other lboat apps etc. Works great.


make an account to get ISO's

forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/57077-Paul-s-quot-X-quot-files

remove tiles (disable live tiles), disable internet search, Cortana assistant
Cortana will still run in the background, but it won't be pestering the boot disk as much every time you open Start

This, switched to Fedora, best thing ever.

So it's just a core windows lite distro?
That sounds dope.

This. Classic shell is a godsend. So much faster

>sfc /scannow
just fixed it

Sorry for asking this
How do you pirate that version of Windows after installing?
I have a Pro license, but fuck it

What version am I going for here?

>that disgusting font rendering
Why cleartype is so shit?

yeah. no ortana at all an dnot in background. comes clean as windows 7. it's much better. no store though. not sure how to get the store but it also doesn't come with it.

The WIndows Loader works with it. I haven't had any troubles on multiple machines or installs.

The most recent. LTSb gets less updates I am pretty sure. but grab the most recent you see. It may be february for LTSB

I'll help seed. i snagged one last night

>THERE ARE PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD WHO SERIOUSLY USE WINDOWS 10

Sup Forums is fucking DEAD

>downloading and running an activator from mydigitallife forums

>cortana period edge and all other lboat apps etc
Bullshit, retard

The magnet links seem to be inactive for now.
Generation has an ISO with all individual updates until April in all languages. I'm going to try it out.

>not using mtk

nice memes

darktable, but i doubt nearly as good

Slackware

Yeah you can.

You can't, you can only "remove" her but then you wouldn't be able to search your system, you'd have to use some 3rd party search.

>using pirated custom isos
lel

Get TinyWall and configure your built-in firewall.

You can try Antergos.

Uh I never said to get it from there. Those are just clean 10 ISO's

It is not bullshit. I installed it a couple weeks back. NO cortana even in background. It was like a clean Windows 7 install.

Yeah mine was slow last night I am seeding it now but i dont' see any activity. Maybe try another.

I had generation. it works but i prefer true ISO without anything. gl though Generations worked for me. Oh generation also has a LTSB on KAT. I really would get that. it's much more clean and runs better.

Windows 10 has the best desktop environment for desktop use. East shit

There is an unmodified kernel option that doesn't do post install-updates and you can select updates you wish to have installed.

These are the only things preinstalled (which I'm okay with) -

I'm going to get this installed on my laptop and see how she runs.

Either Fedora or Ubanto (or one of it's spins).

They're like the two actually functional distros in existence

I had signal send issues with Ubuntu and the BIOS on my XPS. The computer wouldn't automatically turn off.

>ORIGIN
>WORRIED ABOUT BEING KEKED

slow as heck?

My company uses Office365 yet somehow I only got the April 2016 update today and my Outlook is totally fucking hosed. I had to uninstall and reinstall it.

I'm for rapid releases but with Microsoft's staff cuts they're making devs do QA at the same time and shit is not working.

Salty Nutella: Get your fucking shit together.

it works normally now, turns out sfc /scannow repaired it.

>not sure how to get the store
stackoverflow.com/questions/36403552/ltsb-windows-10-store-app
this might help

I'm using the LTSB btw, and I really like that it doesn't come with the metro faggoty apps and is kind of what a base Windows install should be like.

You can also defer upgrades so they don't bug you all the time

This is exactly what I need.

can you send me a screenshot of defering updates?
im on the verge of installing LTSB

...

8.1

dude thats amazing, imma drop win7 ultimate and install LTSB this weekend
thanks for sharing this man

user wtf?

You can do the same on Pro

LOL hey,
me and you have a similar rig except I'm in dual channel.
Figured the problem out though

uh i just realized there was a win 10 update. will restart in a moment. i heard there are problems with some games? have you heard anything about that?

>Dreamweaver
holy fucking shit hahahahahahahahahahaha

I haven't had any problems with games yet. BF4/DOTA/GTA5 run perfectly fine so far. I had Cortana disabled which caused an issue with my start menu requesting information and timing out but I fixed the issue. It was unique to my particular setups.

Wew lad

Oh shit, waddup.

install spybot anti beacon

Make sure you install Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB N edition because it does not have anything installed, not even a media player or a picture viewer. It's literally the Arch Linux of Windows.

it's dat NECKBEARD boi

Post music

soundcloud.com/ckbaudio

post music instead of whatever the h*ck that was supposed to be

That's my personal stuff that I do from time to time, I'm a sound engineer who works for other artists.

How are you enjoying it? My laptop broke the other week and I can't decide between the xps13 and the xps15

It's a dream. Literally one of the best ultrabooks I've ever laid my hands on. It's overkill for everyday use, and your money is probably better spent on something more modest but I do a lot of intensive editing and mixing on the road where a lot of notebooks fall behind for me, so this machine is perfect. It also serves well for my other hobbies like photography and filming.

erase all that bullshit out of your start menu. there is nothing in my start menu except for folder paths

defering updates is a enterprise option and not limited to just LTSB

I do photo and video editing and compile stuff so I wanted a beefy ultrabook as I also don't have space in my apartment, and I love the portability of a laptop too. Still deciding between the 15 inch and the 13.3 inch. What's the screen resolution of the 15 inch?

I don't have space in my apartment for a desktop*

I got the 1080p display because I felt like 4k is unnecessary at the viewing distances I use my laptop at, not to mention windows does not do scaling properly with certain applications that don't support it. In my mind, I justified it with battery life assuming a 1080 wouldn't need to be driven as much by the GPU and thus saving battery life - I doubt that's the case but it was another point I considered before buying the laptop. Depends on what you want really, but personally I don't think I would have benefited much from having a 4k display in anyway.

I'm also gonna put Linux on it. Not quite sure how well scaling is gonna be, but I'll roll with it.

Scaling in Linux is much better. relatively speaking.

yeah but it's a feature that I like so I mentioned it

Oh awesome. My last display was only 1600x900, so I couldn't tell. That's awesome thanks :)

Jesus

bitwig is basically ableton except it runs natively under linux. look into that otherwise yes ableton runs fine in wine

Ableton itself is shit, but comparing Bitwig to Ableton is like telling a designer to move to GIMP because it's 'just as good' and 'basically the same' as Photoshop.

what does ableton have that bitwig doesnt have? ive only used bitwig
