When I bought my last laptop it had Windows S mode and no crap whatsoever, it was vanilla windows. I'm not sure if there is some OEM agreement not to install crapware on windows S mode, does anybody knows? You can then switch off S mode off and it will became normal, clean windows.
- hackerfromthefu 5y agoI'm not sure about S mode, but theres a program called Microsoft 'Signature' that means any Signature machine you buy has only windows and essential drivers/control apps, no extra adware or funded programs such as the time limited anti-virus and extra jank. That's one possible explanation for getting a vanilla windows. Sadly that's discontinued now as Windows descends further into consumer abuse and anti-features. https://www.howtogeek.com/402888/looking-for-a-microsoft-signature-edition-pc-heres-what-to-do-instead/ https://www.howtogeek.com/402888/looking-for-a-microsoft-sig...
