I tried doing this the other day. Due to my current GPU (3080) it was too many hoops to jump through just to play a game. I don’t want to spend time configuring my setup to make the game run in the little amount of free time that I have ಥ‿ಥ
Although the system is very efficient I’ve decided to move my side project to be on Linux, making my Windows install to be purely for gaming. I was using WSL previously with a Mac for my day job.
Maybe if I switched to an AMD GPU I’ll do a proper Linux gaming setup.
I did this the moment they dropped copilot on my taskbar without any prompting. It was my gaming machine so it took a little getting used to, but it’s been solid ever since.
I did not ask for an AI chatbot in my os. I don’t want an AI chatbot in my os.
You could go to Settings -> Personalization -> Taskbar and turn the Copilot button off. Or you could install a whole new OS to accomplish that, I guess. Whichever is simpler.
I over reacted and took the Linux route. It wasn’t just one thing that prompted the change, but copilot was the icing on the cake.
I’ve been unhappy with windows for a few years, but it’s always been easier to ignore it and continue on. Something in me must have snapped about the same time a few guys at work were talking about gaming on Linux. Worked out well for me, might not work best for everyone.
Really considering moving my main computer to Linux with the way things are going

I don’t think it’s an overreaction - you have a line, and when it was crossed you switched.
I’m dual booting my laptop and most of the time I stay using Linux. There just no point using Windows except some specific tasks.
