I was already dubious about upgrading from 10 to 11 and this is final straw. I will have to look at Linux options and see if my Windows-only programs will run effectively under WINE.

I'm fucking out. I do a lot of basic IT work, including many fresh installs and new domain users, and I am so godamn sick of having to go through 5 dialogues every single time I open edge. For the local account. Then the domain admin account. Then the domain user account. Fuck this company.

As soon as I can afford to get an AMD GPU or do a swap with someone for my 1070, I'm gone. I used to love computers, but dealing with windows even on a home PC with no "problems", it just feels like more work.

You can disable or streamline that stuff with either group policy or registry keys.

I used to do the same work (several years ago) and I started researching fixes and writing scripts to speed up my work.

Make a to do list of what your computer setup process is. Figure out the earliest you can launch a script (netshare or usb). Then start writing scripts for your tasks.

Installing apps, file transfers and system configs.

At that point why not run a WDS

Because you're a level 1~2 technician hired in to support an enterprise windows environment and you have no choice.
