I fucking love OSX.

I thought the ad meme on Windows 10 was a circlejerk with photoshopped images.

That was when I had a Windows 10 Pro N license (N = doesn't ship with windows media player in europe).

Then I bought a new computer and a Windows 10 Pro regular license.

It had fucking 15 preinstalled apps and ads in the start menu. And after removing them, Windows needed to update (not a feature update, just a cumulative one) and there were 10 new ad bullshits that needed to be uninstalled.

Insane that I paid 200 bucks for the license. I would expect the ads if the license had costed me 20 bucks from official retailer store but nope

>Current state of windows

>Currysoft products past 2008

windows 7 does not have this problem
yet

That's what you get for not using the Edu version.

"It's not an ad"
- pajeet

Nice try pajeet, but that version has all of the ads as well.

i doubt that it has anything to do with the Pro N version. I upgraded from win7 to win8 and win10 dev version or whatever, and i never see any ads either.
They might have an actual algorithm to keep techies and early adopters away from the ads so that there wont be too many early reports of this from influental people, shitting on windows.
Obviously the algorithm isnt perfect because when you buy a new machine, you get a new license - with ads.

Never experienced this so I say bait

>enterprise
legally not possible for a home-user
>not removing dumb folders from my computer
>not removing "this le pc" to my computer
and you wincucks dare to say leenox is high-maintenance?!

PS: Watch out and make sure to finish your work during the Active Hours, we wouldn't want you to lose your progress due to another mandatory uninterruptible reboot, now would we? ;)

You need an ad blocker for the OS?
Block them in the hosts file.

...

I bet you also can't believe that we have shills here

Proof? From what I gathered Education version is literally Enterprise without cortana, which can only be a good thing

it's either a shill or an idiot, that "neon" looks like absolute fucking dogshit

Enterprise has the ads as well
Every version except LTSB has all the bullshit
Even LTSB has cortana, MS just renamed it to "SearchUI.exe"

I got it yesterday

see and

Ads in the mother fucking file manager...

Why does anyone still use that turd in 2017?

FUCKING DISABLE IT IN THE SETTINGS
OMFG

b -but you can disable it!!! So it's OK!
kek

>FUCKING DISABLE IT IN THE SETTINGS OMFG
It should be off by default

...

...

It's off by default tho

Nice try. But
- nobody mentioned ubuntu
- that has been removed since years
- ubuntu and unity are not the only linux distro and DE

>damage control

FUCKING LINUX SHILLS DONT YOU POORFAGS REALISE YOU CAN JUST PAY EXTRA ON YOUR WINDOWS SUBSCRIPTION TO DISABLE IT?

Yes it is
omgubuntu.co.uk/2016/01/ubuntu-online-search-feature-disabled-16-04

Yeah I realized now that you weren't talking about win10

This is a joke

K :p

I saw this in a retail version early in the week

You know Europe specific allows purchasing second hand windows licences, right? The max you should pay for 10 pro is £24

it's so stupid though, i mean how needs an ad to buy space for onedrive?
people who use onedrive know that it's limited.
if they dont know then they dont need to know via an ad until they run out or are about to run out.
why show an ad for more space.. i mean maybe they make money off people who think they ought to buy more space as a precaution

Checkeroonied

It makes sense from a business point of view: given the choice a biz prefers small amounts paid regularly over a lifecycle than one amount at the very beginning. You can already see where this leads with office 365.

It makes no sense at all from a tech or a user point of view- it can only detract from the user's productivity.

Good thing i switched to Ubuntu. Finally free from this malware infested botnet.

The ads are actually relevant to my needs, therefore useful. In addition, they are non-intrusive. Considering the work Microsoft has put into this operating system and ecosystem in general, I will gladly provide them with the ad revenue.

I see no issue here.

Retina Display doesn't have this problem

Only autistic homosexuals don't use LTSB version

Windows 10 ignores the hosts file.

>Literally the only way to use Windows 10 is to pirate a version intended for nuclear fuel handling systems
wew lad

I wasn't gonna buy it anyways so why would I care senpai

>ubunto fixing their errors
>windows continuing making their advertisements more intrusive
>damage control

FreeBSD doesn't have this problem :)

> * blocks your path *

How the fuck does one buy a LTSB key

I really don't want to have to put up with those "not genuine" popups, you might as well just get retail with the adware.

focking jej

I torrented it senpai from private trackers

>All these shills like saying things like "hurr durr just do X and X to remove it"

The fucking point of using Windows is that it just works out of the box. Because YOUR TIME IS NOT WORTHLESS you shouldn't be doing all these annoying procedures like running scripts from some Russian kid to block Windows from using your keystrokes to sell you shit.

Windows 10 scares the shit out of me because of all the configuration nightmare that you need to do to in order to have an OS that works and doesn't spy every single aspect of your life.

There are people on this board RIGHT NOW who don't keep their windows installation safely sandboxed away in a vm, only using it when absolutely necessary.

doesnt happen in windows 10 enterprise

What's wrong with an OS promoting it's features to the user?

botnet

What's wrong with having fecal matter in your hands, Pajeet?

Except that it's already not getting support 3 years before the official date. Switch, nigga. Grab the terrible 8.1 or the abomination that is 10 or make the best choice and choose a Linux distro.

>quality post from applel shills

...

Just make the switch already
Start with Ubuntu and run it through a virtual machine or dual boot, it will likely be a good decision

Can you fucking stop with this racist garbage you virgin

>2017
>Not using Speed Commander

Why exactly is LTSB is the best? Is it really ad-free? Somehow I doubt MS would just let it roam free. If you need to do some cleaning then it is just the same as other version.

Read senpai

>Morsay
Is this real ?

mate i wasnt serious. I'm never going to make the switch because I'll always need Windows for some reason or another. I run Linux too in VMs, this shit isnt an ideology for me because I'm not autistic.

Shill
Shill

happened to me today, thinking of switching to ubuntu. Anyone got some tips on distros?

Please use the fucking archive or google before making one of those "Hey Sup Forums I just installed X linux distro, what do?"

We even have a fucking wiki.

Enjoy your Russian malware.

why are you so mad at him user? it's saturday so relax and take a chill pill. if Sup Forums makes you angry then like cool off nigga haha

Linux Mint or Ubuntu Mate if you want something easy. Debian Testing or Arch if you want something a bit more cutting edge.

Fuck off, cancer.

> (You)
>Fuck off, cancer.
fuck off hoe I participated more than you

Posting the same tech support garbage is nothing to be proud of. Less is more. Now get the fuck out.

I might installed Arch and just put Window in a vm exclusively for games based on this post

Use Winblows 7 fampai

/thread
the file explorer in windows is absolutely horrible

Not him but thank you fampai. I will upgrade from my W7 to LTSB once DX12 becomes mandatory for gayms

Just get Ubuntu, don't listen to turbo autists on here. You can change your desktop environment or theme after install if you don't like how it looks. I switched and haven't looked back.

I like W7 more, but I miss the CMD, the calculator and the task manager of W10.

Ubuntu is ok if you are a basic bitch with no life outside of shitposting and anime.

No Linux distro has thumbnail support for browser file picker, not even KDE. I tried them all and they all suck ass with insane screen tearing even with compositor and force vsync enabled.

Linux is a meme.

> FEATURES

I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE FUCKING POP-APS AND ADVERTISEMENTS WHEN WORKING!

HAVE YOU EVER TRIED FOCUSING ON ONE THING?

Good choice familia
It ain't doe

not an argument

> Hey guys I am a fucking retard that buys something and expects it not to work by default!

>I can't even configure Windows
>Linux will be better for me

top fucking kek mate

why would you expect it "not to work"?
whatever the fuck that means
you might wanna walk that back and try it again later champ
