In the unfortunate event that you CANT uninstall Windows, at least replace it with AtlasOS.

Basically, it reinstalls Windows but rips virtually everything which makes Windows a piece of shit. You'll get better performance, no telemetry, and next to no bloatware.

Learn Linux anyway.

Wasn't atlasOS proven to be a scam/not-as-advertised, or have they changed it?

Depends on how you want to chop it up, it's not a 'scam' because its not a paid product.

Not-as-advertised? Depends on how you're using it.

It strips out a bunch of security features like Defender. If you're not prone to opening random .exe files, then you'll probably be fine.

Some users didn't get the performance boost they were expecting, while others did (I certainly noticed a difference).

Driver support? Some people had issues, though I suspect they didn't RTFM. The AtlasOS instructions explicitly instruct the user to do all updates, including optional and drivers, prior to AtlasOS overwrites.

I see, thanks for clearing it up

Wow this sounds too good to be true as someone that needs to keep windows for my work apps. What's the catch and why haven't I heard of it before?

[-] Zozano@aussie.zone 2 points 1 week ago

There's not 'catch' other than having to reinstall windows.

Another 'catch' might be that it strips out shit like one drive and the Microsoft Store.

If you needed those, then you'd need to reinstall them with workarounds.

Just get W11 Enterprise IoT LTSC from massgrave.dev. It's an official Windows and not some tool to worry about trust.
