And sit without new features and new hardware support until 2019 like a cuck.

>>60438452
the only useful feature is the Neon UI but it's coming on fall

>>60438495
You know, you can't install Nvidia drivers for Pascal if your Windows 10 in not at least version 1607, I'm pretty sure they'll do it again. And the next LTSB release will be in 2019.

Install gentoo.

>>60438553
Post evidence

>>60438139
How did I not know about this? LTSB seems legit...

You can always dual boot. Use Linux for internet browsing, general stuff and just reboot to Windows if you want to play a game. That's what I'm doing once I get accustomed to Linux in a VM.

>>60439504
>using linux for casual shit and windows for work
What a waste of space, I use Windows for everything and no problem for years

>>60438019
All I want to know is:
>How do I kill Cortana permanently?
I never use it and I want it off my computer.
>How do I get rid of a bunch of these ads and stuff that eats up start-up time & resources?
Seriously MS, fuck off with this shit.

>>60439537
It's not about problems, at least for me. I've used nothing but Windows my whole life and have never had a problem. I just want to try something new that's customizable and stuff.

>>60438019
Backward-upgrade to 7

>>60439634
Try Linux on a VM, is the best way... I do that.

>>60439689
Yeah I'm actually installing Arch Linux on a VM right now. I want to get accustomed to it before I actually run it on my system.

>>60439810
VM is the best way to try, I don't like Linux that much to install in on my machine, but in VM is fine, cause' it uses little space and resources

Work for Microsoft, leak the source code

Pic related. When going though the install setup, do advanced and uncheck all data collection options.
Disable SMB1 (or not), and some various group policies (the ones that look sus). Could also run some Win10 privacy applications.
Add this to hosts file pastebin.com/jaD3UaEe .
etc etc

Youre in high-contrast mode, you can fix that easily in themes.

throw your electronics away and do something more fulfilling with your life.

>>60438452
So like every other windows OS?

Perfect

You mean I need to regedit my windows version?

SHIT... an anon on /pol/ got me. I should shitpost on an anonymous image board instead.

>>60438019
replace it with linux

Anyone tried to install a custom MSMG version of Win10?
Is it true you can remove all telemetry and spying bullshit using it? It says it does, but I don't know to what extend it can do it.
All I want is that W10 at least doesn't have a mean to know what apps and files you use.

I thought about dual booting with Win 7, but that's useless if Win10 sniff though all your drives and partitions

>>60438452
download specific drivers for hardware support (like you should have done in the first place). no new bloat? good.

>>60438019
Use the most based, non autistic distro out there today: Linux Mint

>>60438019
Install Win 7 or Gentoo.

>>60438019
I have a 2k gaming laptop that is virtually useless because of spyware box 10. With tools running in the background which specifically target spyware, Windows uses 15% of the CPU away from the user.

Windows 8 also has spyware, although not as invasive and everywhere. Windows 7 has spyware just not as much as Win8...

Basically, Steve Balmer fucked MSFT up and I hope that company goes bankrupt

what's the point of debloating winshit10 when every now and then microshit releases an update and reverts back every thing you did?

seriously fuck this shit.

>inb4 don't update

well I updated just because of the new virus shit.

>>60453346
the new virus shit was affecting people running WINDOWS XP

>>60453552
and Vista and 7 and 8 and 8.1

Hey, I need some help but don't want to make a new thread
I had a legit copy of windows 7 that I upgraded to windows 10 with the free update, I'm about to upgrade my computer and want to do a clean install, but I'm unsure if the free update will still work
Does anyone know if it does? I've read some contradictory things, like it might work but potentially not
If I have to spend 100 bucks or whatever on a new copy of w10 I will, but I'd prefer not to

>>60438019
Simply operate two computers.

One gaming botnet and then the Linux computer for stuff you want a minimum degree of privacy / security for,

>>60453805
If it doesn't activate, just take to the high seas and use KMSAuto.

Do you think the User Account Control is necessary?

Do you have it activated?

Hola. Yo ocupo una laptop marca susa con windows 10. Alguien sabe como hacer que todo corra mas fast? La ui es muy slow. Y queria saber si le puedo cambiar el hdd por un sdd para hacerla mas fast y quiza jugar some loghtweight games como overwatch y el lol2

If something goes wrong just do what I did, 30$.

You can check the version of windows you had, if you can reuse the windows 7 keys it should be good to use for 10. If it was a one time key then 30$

>>60438019
>Improve Windows 10
Get rid of the awful schizophrenic UI.

One UI for mobility.
One UI for desktop.

Keep it simple. This unification bullshit is a stupid stupid idea.

>>60439832
Beware, I did the same thing: running Windows forever then installed Linux in a VM to try.

Now I run Linux as my main desktop and rarely use Windows at all. Also switched all my servers to Linux.

>>60453617
Tinfoilhatting that it is intended to force W10 onto everyone running those systems.

>>60438019
Just run it in a VM inside GNU/Linux, with passthrough you can keep your gayman shit
There is just no other way to uncuck yourself

>>60454683
Yeah that's what I did, still valid to this day and I got my key like a year ago now, the only reason I mention this is I hear some people have been fucked by sellers that deactivate the key after a set amount of time to resell it or whatever.

windows 10 is dead unless you have the LTSB

getting win 7 up to date is without telemetry is fucking minefield - i just spent a day helping a chick who had to have it for adobe CC and NEVER AGAIN

the /g/ approved meme that somehow dissipated is just install win 8.1 and add classic shell.... boom done.

>>60438019

Strip it of its botnet

You've got to work at not being cucked. Running only windows on your machine is like not owning your machine.

Insane how no one mentioned ShutUp10 yet. It's the absolute easiest way to make Windows 10 dramatically improved, and it's free. One click disables so much bullshit - telemetry, advertisements, forced updates, annoying apps, etc.

Wow! They even won a medal

Windows needs a completely different design.

And I mean completely, top to bottom, even the fucking fonts.

just block the telemetry stuff, W10 works perfeclt but install gentoo fags say that linux is better just to look cooler

http://windowsitpro.com/windows-10/how-turn-telemetry-windows-7-8-and-windows-10

I'm gonna do a msmg custom install of 10Pro but I wonder if I have to disable updates at all? Wouldn't that cause issues in the long run if I permanently disable windows update.

>>60438019
1) Learn to program, C# and Python seems to be the easiest on Windows.
2) Make a service to disable all the shits Windows is trying to reactivate all the time.

>>60456862
Meant for me I guess.

Its little voice says it's mouse based, the other says it's touch based.

dual boot

>>60438019
>I have been debating GNU/Linux after lurking here for a small time
so you came to /g/, drank some of the koolaid, and now you're looking to be told what to do?

ehh, look for other reasons to use windows than games and look for other reasons to use that linux other than fitting in on /g/. if you're looking to learn new stuff and customize every little thing, go ahead and go linux. i'll give you a fair warning, it is a clusterfuck and you will spend a lot of time getting comfortable. if you don't have a lot of sparetime, can't recommend it

>>60455241
>just install win 8.1 and add classic shell.... boom done.
can someone back this guy up?

how good is this?

>>60460912
It's shit. Better get 7 and use WSUS offline to update. It by default filters all bad updates (telemetry and GWX related)

>>60438019
Install the GNU/Linux distribution "ubuntu"
