    It’s not as bad as people make out, but buying a brand new Windows machine is a pretty annoying experience.

      I always take these posts with a huge grain of salt. I have installed Windows 11 in two PCs so far and never seen these things happen. I don’t see no candy crush or nonsense installed save for some microsoft apps. I then proceed to delete what I don’t want and turn off tips and suggestions. After doing that it never has bothered me again…

      I’m on Windows 11 and I don’t recall ever seeing a pop-up like this but it looks like a standard notification from the Microsoft Store App, which means it SHOULD be possible to suppress by turning off notifications for that app (Open Settings, go to System -> Notifications -> Microsoft Store and just set the toggle to “Off”).

      Yes, that turns off ALL Notifications for the Store App, but it doesn’t really have any useful ones anyways so it’s not a big loss.
