If you install windows and set the language to be english (world), there will be no preinstalled BS apps like tiktok.

Of course most people wont do that

Wait, what are you talking about? Windows doesn't pre-install TikTok. Are you talking about OEM versions? Those come with a bunch of bloatware because they get paid by the companies to add their software to the install. If you get a copy of windows that's not attached to a pre-built computer, then it shouldn't have any bloatware. Granted, I haven't installed Windows 11, and don't plan to, so my knowledge could be dated.

If you install windows 11 from a fresh usb right now, you'll find TikTok, Prime Video, Candy Crush, etc. in the start menu. They're technically not installed, more like "click to install". Iirc, windows 10 was more or less the same, but a bit less.

I installed w11 today,there was no candy crush or tiktok or whatever. I had office,spotify,whatsapp,sudoku Legit download from the microsoft website...

I suppose it could differ by region. Spotify, WhatsApp, and sudoku are definitely paid placements
