Still, even for $30. I refuse to pay for something to shove ads down my throat. If you're advertising to me then I'm not paying.
Genuine question - are ads in 11 Pro?
I know in previous versions that they left out the nonsense like hassling you about Edge, and dropping start menu tiles for candy crush - I'd be surprised if they decided to piss off their enterprise market as Apple seem to be gaining share.
No clue. I'm still on 10 and I always run o&o shutup and other tools after a fresh install. I don't get ads and such. But hopefully someone else can tell you more about 11 specifically.
