In my view, this is unacceptable…

They changed my background (previously there was a default blue window), placed an icon in the bottom corner of the screen that read “Learn more about this photo”, and re-added the search bar that I had previously removed.

Fortunately, I don’t have to deal with this on a daily basis.

    Time to switch to Windows 11 as Microsoft is going to make your experience as bad as possible

    If you need Windows I would create Samba AD DC and then join the machine to the domain. From there you can configure it with group policy

        True but the AD can be useful for other things and is separate from the install

            I like to split the roles into separate VMs. I have a few VMs joined to the domain and I can house all the configs and user profiles on the DC. If I need to blow away a machine for whatever reason I do not need to recreate work. I just create a new VM and then join the domain. All the group policy tweaks apply and I don’t need to manually change settings.
