> I did at one point plug a Logitech keyboard into the Surface, but I definitely did not intentionally install any Logitech drivers. It's something Windows put there by itself, only for it to become a problem later.
Windows automatically installs drivers supplied by the manufacturer.
If Windows didn't do that, then you'd get antitrust complaints from Logitech, because Microsoft sells keyboards that compete with Logitech's.
A lot of the problems with the Windows ecosystem are not technical problems at all, but legal or market problems.
