I do the same, but unfortunately need internet access on win 11 (for the same reason I need windows at all, a historic thin client upon which a large corporation I work for uses)… I could just run a cloud vm with windows 7 for the same purpose, but it breaks email and document “printing” pdf - or at least makes it super inconvenient.

Anyway - today the damn weather showed up on my win 11 taskbar to the extreme left. Click on it and a huge panel of crap opens. No obvious way to turn of these weather alerts. Even the start button sucks , full of crap. Pretty sure it made a Microsoft account automatically too through the parallels installer using my Mac credentials (ugh!)
