Yeah, i disabled basically all telemetry on windows. I also will never upgrade to 11. It sucks donkey balls. Also I haven't noticed any change in edge being gone. Maybe I just got lucky.
Forgot to say, I got my keys from a system builder who had a shit ton of them but had to get them off the shelves because windows 11 was around the corner. So they are all legally obtained.
I used the windows debloater to remove most telemetry and then shut off services that were left in the task manager until something broke completely. It was a bit of a process but it worked. I use my PC for 3d modeling and gaming. Never used half the integrated apps because I have no need or already have better ones or actually a physical calculator. In general with my PCs I just delete anything that I will never use. Like office for example.
