I would be surprised to hear of Microsoft doing such a thing, and equally surprised to hear of a consumer OEM not doing it.
Are you sure it was Microsoft and not the manufacturer?
- alyandon 10y agoYes, Microsoft did. There are live tiles in the start menu that feature apps from the Microsoft app store. Of course, removing them from the start menu is as simple as right-clicking and selecting remove. They don't really bother me enough to bother removing them but I can easily see how they'd be annoying to some.
