    Complete industry propagated B.S.. TO each is own.

    The noob solution;
    You like all the desktop ads, telemetry, being a slave to mickeysoft and letting them rule over you. Then by all means continue to run the idiot updater and let it run your machine, and end whatever internet privacy you had left.

    The smart solution;
    You completely optimize the superlite os build and turn the dumb ass updater (among other things) OFF. If there are any patches that are absolutely essential (there are very few) they can be dl'ed individually and applied offline. There is NO need to run that autonomous updater at all.

    You are the unpaid beta tester, you're doing this to yourself.

    You can't use a few modern plugins with XP!

    This thread inspired me to reformat two days ago. I installed LTSC 24H2 and tweaked it using CTT Utility and Defender Remover. It's silky smooooooth.

    1. Windows System Image always saves the day. Even a two day old image is better than nothing. If you are too busy to back up your work/setup, you deserve to learn a lesson. Have you learned your lesson about computing with no safety net?

    2. Never use M$ account. 80% of the M$ privacy problem in Windows 10-11 is this. Find one of the newer exploits to create a local account.

    3. Windows Update running 24/7 is not needed IMO. Leave disabled until you have a specific issue that only updating can repair. I update once a year (Fresh install time), and have never had functionality issues this way in the last 6 years. Keeps that CPU quiet also.

    4. Bing is the intelligence gathering wing of M$. Find a quieter search engine if possible.

    5. Windows is f*cking awesome/stable...once you peel away the bs and internet block the rest.
