My desktop has neither bluetooth nor wireless capabilities. My laptop
has both wireless and bluetooth disabled. Both computers are just the
way I like it in this regard.

I have both the "Connected Devices Platform Service" and the "Connected
User Experiences and Telemetry" services disabled, but am unable to
disable the "Connected Devices Platform User Service". M$ is
increasingly making it impossible to disable services that enable their
loaded agendas.

I did a repair reinstall a few days ago and have experienced nothing but
problems ever since. IMO ever since that guy from India, Satya Nadella
took over as Microsoft's CEO, Windows has gone to shit. He's replaced
most American employees with ones from India, and none of them seem to
know how to code worth a shit.

it's only a matter of time before I have to abandon Windows altogether.
