To be fair, Google is basically paying most of the sites that NPCs (which includes /g/ ofc) downloads their opinions from to shit on Microsoft.
Google knows that MS is the only thing standing between them owning desktop - if they can off Microsoft Office, their Chromebooks and Google Docs take over.
It's amazing how many people can't/won't see this, as they parrot "anti-Microslop" content... that's entirely created by AI.

Anon it works on everything from Vista to 11 (though you can't use it the powershell way until 10)
You can also use it to change your edition to Enterprise if you want IE the best edition.

Highest amount of control, like disabling the vastest amount of the telemetry and such to the most basic of identifiers.
