Where do I have to click to get those ads?
- zabzonk 6y agoQuite - I have been using Windows since Windows 2.0 and I have never seen an ad - perhaps I am doing something wrong?
- sodality2 6y agoYou have never had Candy Crush-esque apps installed automatically?
- zabzonk 6y agoI really don't know everything that is installed on my computer - do you on yours? I can say I have never seen the thing. And anyway, surely that is a game, not an ad?

- sodality2 6y agoWhich is paid to be preinstalled and put in your face every time you open the start menu. I'd go as far to say it is adware.
- Miraste 6y agoOff the top of my head, Windows has advertised or directly installed Edge (are you suuuuure you don't want to default it?), OneDrive (in file explorer, no less), Office 365, Bing (in the system search bar), Xbox something or other, Candy Crush, Teams, Skype, and probably several others that I'm forgetting.
- tester756 6y agoI ran script that uninstalls a lot of those stuff years ago Probably it was this https://gist.github.com/matthewjberger/2f4295887d6cb5738fa34e597f457b7f https://gist.github.com/matthewjberger/2f4295887d6cb5738fa34...
