A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Python2 might be required by something. Is Edge required? And Xbox? A folder for 3D models even if I never did 3D stuff and most likely never will on that PC? If yes, why? I can't think of anything I or lots of other people need that wouldn't work without these and lots of other things
Edge is, somewhat ironically, required by the "Internet Explorer compatibility" feature. Xbox and the 3D folder, get installed as part of a "user experience" pack. Not sure if Edge also gets pulled as a requirement to populate the "default app" fields. Interestingly, if you never open the Xbox app, it will never fully install, even if the package gets updated.
