Install. Linux.
Yes.
Yes, install Linux, yes, it's better, yes, it's a little different, but yes, you will like it better.
Bloat ware? Gone. Antivirus shit? Gone. Spyware? Gone. Reboots for bullshit reasons? Gone. Forced updates? Gone.
Bullshit. Drivers exist now for just a out everything and most drivers are put of the box, not like windows requiring installs. Most of not all games now work.
Many, not all, but MANY software packages out there have open source equivalents that many times are equal or better than what you're using. If not that, Wine will allow you to run a huge amount of windows software transparently on Linux. YMMV of course but "I need software x!" barely has been an excuse anymore for using windows.
Did I mention it's actually free, no piracy involved (though if that is your thing, lots of software available for that too)
Windows sucks. Microsoft software in general sucks. Microsoft platforms suck (looking at you there, outlook, teams, office, and SharePoint, oh my frigging god what pieces of shit you are)
Not gonna claim its eay to use, not gonna claim it's easy to install, not gonna claim its easy to replace existing software wit OSS alternatives.
But damn, it feels so good.
It is super easy to install it's super easy to use. Finding replacements for software in Oss products may take a little time but I've found everything I need since 20 years ago. Today nearly everything is out there .
