Not trying to get you back into Windows, and I hate to be the ass saying "skill issue"... but I legitimately have not had any issues with updates reverting my Windows settings in over half a decade. Besides the default PDF reader setting. I haven't signed in with a Microsoft account and have never been prompted to make one after the initial install process.

Install the Pro version of Windows, use Group Policy to turn off the bloat the way Microsoft intends for it to be disabled by enterprise admins, and you're golden. Maybe run a debloat tool or two right after your initial setup, but that's it. No need for repeatedly running debloat scripts, and no settings reverting themselves.

It's 100% easier to use an OS where none of that shit is needed, but I just get frustrated seeing people point at entirely avoidable things as why Windows sucks. There's plenty of other reasons too!

Nah, you good.

The notification is the the start menu. There's a little notification dot on the profile icon above the power and settings icon.

Running win 10 enterprise. I can say "remind me later" but not "never remind me." I did a registry/GPO fix which made it go away... Until it came back. The OS just feels pushy at times.
