Windows was tolerable up until they introduced their extremely intrusive service that will monitor if the user has disabled Windows updates and then undo the user's settings quietly and without notification, again allowing the updates to occur.

This single feature is almost certain to kill off the use of Windows for any important use cases, like kiosk-type softwares in non-trivial environments. It's impossible to control software updates deterministically.

You forgot about how they have confusing setup screens for each major Windows update. Every one of my and my family’s machines have been swapped from Chrome to Edge. They can’t find their bookmarks, don’t know how things work, and call me to fix it.

They want you to use IOT for kiosk use cases.

Of course, but good luck telling companies who have legacy softwares to go ahead and start testing IOT as well...it's the situation we are in and I can tell you that vendors do not want to test on IOT even though it's painfully clear that there is no alternative to it. It's an incredibly murky situation for those who rely on such vendors, especially ones for software for V&V'd environments.
