Windows just changed my desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update
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.

Chris Titus made this tool. I use it to debloat windows, disable all the telemetry, then pause all feature updates for two years and let only security updates through. As an added bonus (and if you want win11), he added a tool to create a micro windows iso. I am running the micro and it has been fantastic. I even removed defender and other garbage they force on people.
I wonder how many people confuse him for the comedian.
Didn't even know about a comedian with this name
He's pretty good. Kinda like a left leaning Dennis Leary
Who's Dennis Leary? 😂 Sorry, immigrant here and don't know many people.
He's an asshole
He's a comedian from the '90s and early '00s
Oh, ok. Good thing I didn't know him I guess.
Oh definitely look up Christopher Titus on YouTube he put all his standup specials on there for free.
Nah, look him up. He is actually funny, but a bit right wing these days. He was closer to mainstream in the '90s
Oh, and watch the video. It is funny.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I just did
I assumed it wasn't the comedian, but bought that he might be angry enough at Windows to make it happen.
I used a similar tool in the past. When I wanted to re-enable something, I forgot which tool I used to disable it, and I couldn't actually get it working ever again
