What method did you use to shut off telemetry? When I did do on my home computer, the calculator app stopped working. Along with a few more apps I don't use (phone, i think, people, the Xbox ones, etc)
I have several windows 10 pro keys from laptops I put Linux on. Maybe some day, I'll use the keys. Unlikely, though.
I used the windows debloater to remove most telemetry and then shut off services that were left in the task manager until something broke completely. It was a bit of a process but it worked. I use my PC for 3d modeling and gaming. Never used half the integrated apps because I have no need or already have better ones or actually a physical calculator. In general with my PCs I just delete anything that I will never use. Like office for example.
