Yep. I’ve set up Windows a few times recently, and they don’t give even the slightest consideration for your settings. Few days later, they changed right back.

They will be configured to benefit Microsoft first. Maybe not immediately. But it sounds like a losing game.

You need to make a Powershell script or batch that uninstalls/turns off the feature and then make a scheduled task that runs the ps1/bat at login.

Its insane that this is what you have to do to keep this shit off your system, but it's effective.

I had to do this with New Outlook because it kept reinstalling after Windows updates.
