How are you guys seeing this? I constantly hear these complaints but never see it myself.
I installed windows 10 on my brothers PC for him the other day after a catastrophically corrupted prior install. I saw seven ads by my count.
Ones for Spotify, onedrive, office 365, several for gamepass.
Did you install an official version? I've never seen those.
Yes Sir, straight from the windows media creator tool
