      What is this? I'm a complete boomer when it comes to PCs and shit. I still have the "ACTIVATE WINDOWS" watermark after months and I haven't been able to find an activator of some sort that isn't a spyware.

          Thing is, even if you force it via Powershell, shit like Cortana and the Chromnium Edge (which is now a default Explorer plugin) can't be uninstalled.

          The bloatware is the fucking worst, not because of the "bloat," but because you can't GET FUCKING RID OF IT the majority of the time.
