I agree. I wonder if Apple put a little tile up to show the new Mac Pro, or of Red Hat put a little widget up to show Red Hat cloud suite would we hear the same complaints.

It's just a little tile that shows a Microsoft product.

I run Windows 10 out-of-the-box on all my machines. I don't run any special "cracks" to remove features, but I may have turned off a few things from Control Panel; I don't remember.

It's a very good operating system. Rock solid. Runs 64- and 32- bit Windows programs, Linux Programs, and anything I want in a VM.

Candy Crush is published by King (which is apparently owned by Activision now?), and has always gave an impression of being slightly sleazy.

I don't mind the OneDrive and Office ads as much (though I still turn them off).
