    Yes. That’s why I use Win7 for legacy stuff and Linux for everything else. On Win7 it was still easy to deactivate (disable a few Tasks and a few checkboxes). Since the updates stopped that PC is super stable too.

    no need to lecture me about muh sEcuRitY uPdAtEs. I know. As if any Microsoft Software was ever secure.

      Microsoft software software isn’t really insecure.

        Thanks. That was a good one. Maybe compared to what Cisco does they are passable.

          Lemmy really is just an anti Windows circlejerk that ignores all facts.

            What facts? Genuinely curious. Microsoft Software in general is pretty bad when it comes to found and or exploited security problems.
            I admit with all the legacy compatibility it must be hard to maintain Windows, but other projects manage that better.
