Me neither. Which is why I am using Open Shell (with DLL hack on Windows 11, without on Windows 10) [1]. Although since I prefer to have the option to have my menu bar on left, which is a reason I don't want Windows 11.
..but its the popularity of Android and Google which put Microsoft to this direction. They get away with it, why not Microsoft? On my Nvidia Shield TV, I have to watch about 33% of my startup screen with commercials. Commercials which sometimes aren't meant for my children.
