If you're forced to use Windows for some things, use Windows 10 LTSC. If you can't buy it (because Microsoft refuses to let consumers buy a non-spyware version of their OS) then sail the high seas for it. It takes the telemetry out and you'll have full control over the OS, can more easily remove Edge and can set your group policy and other stuff to completely block telemetry to your taste.

https://ameliorated.io/ is also a handy project for those that don't want to tinker around with group policies and other tooling. I have been using AtlasOS on my gaming machine for a few months now and the experience and performance has been splendid.

I keep 11 for some machine specific settings. It is on a separate drive from Linux and it exists in a post internet age of behind a router that will never give it access to anything. If I need something for it, Linux will placed those files on a separate drive to manually carry them over to little double middle finger OS. Maybe it can have internet one day when it grows up and vomits all its source code in a bankruptcy.... Assuming it is not to late to abort this little monster toddler.
