Sadly, this is no longer true. At least, not for modern laptops.
It's possible to achieve what you wrote, but the complexity of doing that is borderline impossible. Need to set up group policies, or use custom software, to block installation of specific hardware devices, and specific Windows updates.

- ChuckNorris89 3y agoI have a 2021 Lenovo that had a bunch of crapware on it. Flashed a clean version of Windows and the crapware never came back after any update. The link you posted mentions nothing of a clean install, most likely it was a factory install.
