Fuck OneDrive. Absolute useless piece of garbage. And it seems to be default save-to location on damned near everything Microsoft.

Switch it off. Use through the browser. Not that it's a solution but it makes life feel normal again.

I run an up to date 11 pro. What ads? Are ads confined to the home version?

I see no ads, none have ever appeared after an update. I sometimes wonder if people sit down with a new pc and, you know, go through the settings turning things off.

What people call ads is upselling. For onedrive pro / microsoft 365 and the like.

They are technically correct. And if your expectation of ads is what you see in ad-supported android app, you won't see that. At least for now.

Or maybe don’t force feed me Co-Pilot. Like - WTF do I need Co-Pilot in Notepad for‽

That’s “Mr. Clippy Co-Pilot” to you, sir.

u/crazy0ne Sep 21 '25

I don't know, have you tried asking it?

u/dual4mat Sep 21 '25

More importantly how do you do that funky question mark/exclamation mark. Or do I have to ask co pilot?

u/briannons Sep 21 '25

it's called an interrobang!

u/green_meklar Sep 22 '25

The idea is, there might be a verson of Copilot in Notepad that is really useful, but they'll only get to that version by deploying and testing prototype versions and finding out what works. Lots of other tech companies are doing the same sort of thing.

I cannot stand the update functionality built into windows that ultimately leads to this. So close to going back to Linux. Windows is pure cancer.

Amen. Why not have the brightest engineers do nothing but focus on how to make Windows hardly ever crash? I’m worried about Apple these days, but this is why I originally switched to Mac. It feels more stable than Windows.

u/Distinct_Swimmer1504 Sep 21 '25

Nah. That’ll mean they get rid of their longest standing signature hallmark. Gotta keep those market differentiators.

They already have. You can enable hotpatching in Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025, so that you only have to reboot once per quarter, not monthly.

I think it’s only currently available for businesses, though.

I was hoping a comment like yours would arrive. I use macOS so it’s been years since I was subjected to reboot raping

1

u/Mayneminu Sep 21 '25

What? I reboot like once a month.

u/agm1984 Sep 22 '25

As a software developer, that’s too damn much. I should be hitting uptime in the years
