Have to use Windows for work (I’ve asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification… That’s clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it
I get zero ads or notifications on my windows desktop.
Where are you based? A lot of this is turned off in the EU and I can imagine that this notification also applies only to certain regions. Never got this specific one myself either.
I’m in Canada, five computers with Win 11, including manufacturer default installs, no adverts.
Im on windows 11 on a desktop never got a notification like this? Skill issue?
Shit like this is what pushed me to linux. I haven’t seen an ad in years now.
How can you be able to run Linux without getting able to disable ads on Windows 11? Maybe OP should have a Mac instead.
turn off notifications
The only correct way to use Windows is to use the LTSC version.
If I recall, this tool helped reduced the ads you see in Windows. However Linux is the way to go.
